Salt & Sill, the first floating hotel in Sweden will accompany the internationally acclaimed restaurant with the same name on the Herring Island of Klädesholmen.

Situated atop floating pontoons just outside the restaurant, the 46 guestrooms including one suite will overlook the Bohuslän’s outer archipelago. In nautical fashion, the rooms are evident of stark Scandinavian simplicity, with granite flooring and weathered wood features. Outside seating rooms are attached, to allow access to the sea. A Jacuzzi room comes with the only master suite available, an alternative viewing pad for the seafront scenery.

With the famed seafood dishes available at Salt and Sill restaurant a few steps away, the hotel makes a fine venue for quiet meetings and conference calls.

Other seaside activities include kayaking and RIB orienteering, which involves navigating a boat around the island. In a conservation attempt to maintain the supply of fresh raw cooking materials, rubble leftover from the hotel construction will be used to build a new reef for marine life.
