Sands Hotell is a conference and weekend hotel on Sandhamn, in the outer Stockholm archipelago. Its main offer is exclusive hire: an organizer can take the whole house, with 15 double rooms, 3 single rooms, several lounges and meeting rooms, a relaxation area with a sauna, a conservatory and terraces, for up to 33 overnight guests. Wedding dinners are laid for up to 40 people.
Seminars and company events
Meetings at Sands are tailored to each group. The hotel says nothing is too large or too small, and it suggests activities, a hired gourmet chef, a dinner on another island or an evening at another restaurant on Sandhamn. For groups from abroad, the hotel offers ideas for the days in Sweden and can pass on contacts at well-regarded hotels in Stockholm and elsewhere in the country.
Every meeting setup includes the basic equipment: Wi-Fi, a screen, a flipchart, paper and pens. Meals are adapted to the wishes and schedule of the group. The meeting rooms are apartments inside the house rather than conventional halls, so each one combines a work table, a seating area and bedrooms in the same space.
Weddings and receptions
The hotel describes Sandhamn and Sands Hotell as a setting for a small wedding. The ceremony can be held in Sandhamn chapel, and the hotel arranges lodging and dinner. The large suite at the top of the house becomes the wedding suite for the newlyweds. With 33 regular beds, the hotel can set tables for up to 40 people at the wedding dinner.
Rooms and capacities
The house has three floors. The hotel rents it as a whole or in parts.
Stora möteslokalen is the heart of the property. It is an apartment with an open plan for gatherings and dinners, containing a meeting room and dining room, a large sofa group, an open fireplace and a private terrace of 72 m2, plus access to the relaxation area with a sauna. Renting it allows you to book up to 9 double rooms and 3 single rooms, for a maximum of 22 people.
Stora sviten is the larger apartment: 234 m2 at the top of the house, with a master bedroom with a bathtub, a twin room, a double room, a sofa group, an open fireplace and a large south-facing terrace. Ten people fit around the dining table, which suits smaller meetings. It also works as an addition for a large group.
Lilla sviten covers 108 m2 on the middle floor, with a panoramic view over the entrance to Sandhamn. It is a meeting room for 4 to 8 people and includes three double rooms, a living room with a sofa group and a meeting table, a cloakroom and its own kitchen. The relaxation area is available. Additional apartments can be added to a booking when more space is needed.
Accommodation
