Your experience starts here

The Karlstad region should be Sweden’s most hospitable region and the final destination of your trip all year round.

It may be big words, but it is something we have strived for, for many years. We want our guests to really enjoy themselves and bring many happy memories back home.

The expression ”Sola in Kallsta” (the sun in Karlstad) is known to many. And yes, the sun shines a lot in Karlstad, but it is actually an inn girl who lived in the 18th century by the name of Eva Lisa Holtz it refers to. Thanks to her sunny and great spirits, she was nicknamed ”Sola”. Since 1985, she stands as a statue outside the City hotel.

A warm welcome to our region!
