The concept of relaxation
The concept of relaxation and well-being tends itself to an appreciation of all things beautiful, which is why there is an art exhibition by local artists at Arken hotel at all times, changing five times per year alongside the changing elements. In addition, the spa has its own mini exhibition, and the entire venue is full of sculptures and installations.
Arken hotel is a place to meet where you can literally feel your stress levels dropping and your well-being and creativity increase. In spite of being a city hotel, located only 12 kilometers or 15 minutes away from Gothenburg’s city center, this oasis offers the views and fresh air of a seaside location as well as healthy organic food.
