IHG Hotels & Resorts has returned to the Swedish hospitality space with the opening of a voco branded hotel in Stockholm.

voco Stockholm - Kista features 201 rooms of various sizes, including family and accessible rooms, as well as connecting options.

It offers an urban dining concept, The Eatery Garden, offering contemporary interpretations of classic delicacies with a Nordic touch.

The hotel also houses five meeting spaces, a fitness suite, and underground parking facilities.

The property is located within walking distance to corporate headquarters and tech parks, and a short drive from Stockholm city centre.

voco Stockholm - Kista, general manager Niclas Stjernström said: “We are thrilled to announce the opening of voco Stockholm - Kista, the very first voco hotel in Sweden. This brand-new property represents not only a significant milestone for IHG Hotels & Resorts but also a remarkable addition to the Kista business district.

“The entire team has worked tirelessly to create a welcoming and dynamic space that perfectly embodies the voco brand - combining charm, comfort and a premium inviting experience with the reliability of a global brand.

“We hope to meet the needs of the local and international business community, and we are excited about the opportunities this hotel will bring to the region. I couldn’t be prouder of the incredible work our team has done in bringing voco to life, setting a new standard for hospitality in Sweden.”

voco hotels, the premium brand of IHG Hotels & Resorts, operates a network of 71 open hotels and more than 79 destinations in the pipeline.  

The opening of voco Stockholm - Kista will expand IHG Hotels & Resorts' presence in the Nordics, alongside other properties such as Crowne Plaza Hotel Copenhagen Towers in Denmark and seven hotels in Finland.

In May this year, IHG Hotels & Resorts unveiled the first voco hotel in India – voco Jim Corbett in Uttarakhand’s Dhilkuli region.
