History The founder's Great Great Grandfather, Carl Fredrik Hellsten had, in addition to his job as a mining expert, an inn in Ljusnarsberg in the Swedish county of Bergslagen. He had inherited this inn from his father. In 1871, some time after the great famine in Sweden, he decided to get rid of this enterprise. He wanted to move to Stockholm for a safer existence and so that his sons could get an education. His first thought was to start a small hotel business but reality did not want this. Instead he found himself working hard as a clerk to feed his family. They lived in the parish of Adolf Fredrik in Stockholm. They had their residence at Kammakargatan, two blocks away from the hotel. Carl Fredrik's son Johan, who became a publisher of architectural books, had his shop at Drottninggatan and his home at Luntmakargatan, the street where the Hotel Hellsten is today located. In 2004, 130 years later, Hotel Hellsten opens its doors to continue a family tradition.

About the hotel There are a number of labels that could be used to describe Hotel Hellsten - Design, Hip or Boutique being three of them. The founder's firm intention, however, is that the hotel should be a meeting place for travellers of all disciplines and interests, and become their home while staying in Stockholm. Our concept It is our job to recreate a hotel with its own unique spirit. The spirit must be borderless, crossing all nationalities and cultural interests. It is an art to create a hotel, just as it is to paint, write, or create music. That has been the driving passion behind Hotel Hellsten. Our dream is that this hotel will be a place where people from many artistic disciplines intersect and where busy business people can make effective use of their time while enjoying relaxing and inspiring surroundings. Opposite Hotel Hellsten on Luntmakargatan with the same owner is Rex Hotel. To visit Rex Hotels website
