West Sweden fly drive

The Albert is situated on a plateau with an expansive view over the falls and the town of Trollhättan. The main building is from 1865 and contains the restaurant, salons and suite. The kitchen is famed for its gastronomic expertise and through the years has been awarded great respect, both in Sweden and abroad. You can enjoy a candlelit dinner while the evening’s last sunbeams are reflected in the water. Down below you can see the boats in the locks leading to Vänern and how the historic buildings of Trollhättan are coloured red by the setting sun. In the distance is the hill with the King’s elk hunting grounds. Then you understand why the engineer, Albert - native German, globetrotter, bridge builder in Tsarist Russia – chose to live the greater part of his life here.

The manor offers a setting and feeling one might place in a time long since past. This, in combination with first-class hotel rooms, personal service and a fantastic kitchen make Bjertorp the perfect meeting place. The much-recognised kitchen is highly exclusive. The seasons shape the menu, based as it is on local products and game from the area’s producers. An architectonic jewel, the manor was drawn in the most modern Swedish functional style, by the hottest architect of the time, Ferdinand Boberg. The Littorin family owned the manor for a decade. The main floor of the manor houses the bedrooms of the Lord and Lady of the house, tastefully renovated to serve as appreciated wedding suites. The guest rooms relate in their colours to the seasons and are all unique. Everything from romantic dinners for two up to and including banquets for 150 guests can be fitted in the handsome dining rooms. Parts of the manor garden are surrounded by the Vara Bjertorp Golf.

Delightful, elegant city centre hotel with a country house feel. The hotel is tastefully decorated and has a quiet, central location. The hotel is close to Liseberg and the museums.

With just ten charming traditional and individually decorated rooms all with private facilities although not TV you really experience the personal service. During summer meals are served in the garden or on the terrace with breathtaking views out to sea. A path leads down to a small beach. At the centre of the garden is a large tree from which hangs a swing that even the most grown up among you will not be able resist sitting on and soaking up the atmosphere.
