Ever dreamed of dozing off in one of IKEA’s comfy rooms? Well, it turns out that’s totally possible! Travel influencer Chelsea Dickenson, aka the ‘Holiday Expert’, recently checked into the world’s only IKEA Hotel, nestled right where it all began in Älmhult, Sweden. Just a quick 1 hour 45-minute train ride from Copenhagen Airport for only £22, it’s perfect for a Scandi adventure. And if you’re heading to Stockholm, it’s just a smooth three-hour train trip away.
IKEA Hotell isn’t just about cosy beds; it’s packed with perks like a cinema, restaurant, and even a museum—all free for guests! Prices are super reasonable, with cabins at just £45 per night. Fancy a double or family room? That’ll be £100 and £125, respectively, with breakfast included.
But here’s the real showstopper: the food! Chelsea was blown away by dishes like their famous meatballs and an unexpected luxury hotdog range at the Grillen restaurant. She was there for work but couldn’t stop raving about the quality and price of the meals, saying they were way better than she expected for Sweden.
Her Instagram followers couldn’t agree more. Some had already experienced the magic firsthand, saying it exceeded all expectations, and many others are itching to go. So, if you’re looking for an unforgettable – and surprisingly affordable – Swedish escape, the IKEA Hotel might just be your ticket!
