When the present owners took over in 1984, the name Hotel Oscar Statt was taken. This alludes to the
restaurant- and hoteltradition that reaches back to the time when Arvika during a decade, from 1811, had the name Oscarstad. When the new owners took over they did a total renovation of all
rooms, and a new
kitchen was built. The name Oscarstad comes from a wish to honour prins Oscar (1799-1859), the only son of Karl XIV Johan. As a king he ruled during the years 1844-1859 and was the last representative in Sweden for a more personal royal power, holding all the government strings in his hand. The first tradesman in the house was the merchant E. Rosin, who bought Stadskallaren at an auction 22 January 1849. The owners of the hotel today, Rolf and Birgitta Jonsson, have brought the hotels positions towards the sober oscarian image that it has today.
