Sturebadet

Sturebadet has the city’s most exclusive spa – like a magical Narnia for health and well-being
A visit to Stockholm’s most exclusive and historical spa, Sturebadet, is a unique experience with pleasure for all your senses. When you enter the beautiful and magnificent premises, you almost get the feeling of a magical Narnia for health and well-being. And it was also in these landmarked premises that today’s spa culture began in Sweden. In 1989, Sturebadet became the country’s first spa facility, but it has a much longer history than that. This health palace was founded as early as 1885, and the vision back then – to offer people bathing, exercise, and better health – is still alive today. And it is thriving more than ever.

Sturebadet’s spa offers you great opportunities for well-being. Take a lovely swim in the beautiful and iconic pool (29°C). Relax in the hydromassage jacuzzi, where you can massage tired muscles in 38°C water. Unwind mentally in the relaxation area with rocking chairs and a pleasant aroma room. And enjoy the unique sauna and cold bath ritual in the ancient Turkish Bath, where you alternate refreshing cold baths in 10-degree water with warming moments in both dry and steam saunas and get to use Kerstin Florian’s pleasant spa products. Of course, you can also book luxurious personalized treatments for the whole body – massage, skincare, red light therapy, and much more (all-day entrance included).

Sturebadet welcomes both members and day visitors. Booking a Sturebadet day is a popular option where you can experience the best of everything the facility offers as a member for a day. And the experience is much more than a world-class spa – Sturebadet has a unique overall wellness concept that few can match. Among other things, there is a top-notch, large, and well-equipped training facility where you can both participate in group training and work out in the gym. In addition, you can enjoy everything from good healthy food to a glass of champagne in Sturebadet’s fine restaurant overlooking the pool.

That, and much more, is what you get at Sparadiset, Stockholm’s most cozy and personal spa. Since 2005, they have been offering their customers unique and inventive day spa experiences and today have three facilities in central Stockholm – in Kungsholmen, Östermalm, and Södermalm. Their treatments are also available at Welcome Hotel in Barkarby, north of the city. Coming here is like stepping into a new world where you can leave the stress of everyday life behind for a while and just relax.

Sparadiset has professional and certified skin therapists who care for you as a customer in the best possible way throughout your visit. You can choose from a wide range of lovely treatments. Facials, skincare, lashes and brows, full-body massage, hot stone massage, pregnancy massage, pedicure, and waxing are just a few examples. Many of them can be booked as duo treatments, where you and your friend receive treatment side by side. The facility in Kungsholmen also offers floating and IR saunas. And if you prefer a private spa experience, you can book your own relaxation area at this spa in Stockholm. Then you don’t have to be accompanied by strangers in the pool – something that isn’t available in many places. Perfect if you want to relax in peace with your partner or friends or have a bachelorette party.

In short – if you’re looking for a wonderful and exciting spa experience unlike anything else in Stockholm, you should visit Sparadiset. And if you want to continue the luxury at home afterward, there’s a wide range of quality products that you can purchase (plus an online shop).
