Long weekend: take your time at Hotel Yasugari in Sweden
Located on Nacka, one of the 30,000 islands in the Swedish archipelago, Hotel Yasuragi offers the Swedish capital a gentle Japanese getaway in the heart of nature.
Taking your time at Hotel Yasugari, true luxury today
The Hotel Yasugari offers the divine sensation of being totally cut off from the world, in the heart of an impressive coniferous forest, and allows you to disconnect completely. For total immersion, you're even invited to leave your phone at home to take full advantage of the spa's 5 pools and its uncluttered, calm, Japanese-inspired ambience .
The Rotenburo, accessible in summer and winter alike, comprises several outdoor pools heated to 39° and offers an onsen experience like only Japan (so far) can provide. It's a Zen temple that Swedes love, as it takes just 30 minutes by boat from central Stockholm to reach this little paradise. The rest of the spa is also well worth a visit, with a sea-salt sauna, several baths and a cavern bath carved out of the rock, where silence is the order of the day for a total experience of communion with nature. Futons and minimalist décor adorn the 192 keys of this unique hotel, where you can take your time. True luxury today.
