Treehotel Sweden: Between the earth and the sky
The tree, with its roots that reach deep and strong into the earth and its crown stretching up to the sky, is the natural embodiment of the link between the earthly and the spiritual. It is a reminder to remain grounded while striving upwards. Also aware of this are the new owners of the Treehotel in northern Sweden, where you can spend a night in unique architect-designed treehouses in an unspoilt forest.
ROOTS — The story
It all started in 2008 with a film shoot near the former bed and breakfast belonging to Kent and Britta Lindvall, where a treehouse was erected as scenery. The story of the film Trädälskaren by Jonas Selberg Augustsén is about a young man who wants to escape the city in summer and builds himself a treehouse. When Kent was on a fishing holiday with friends, who happened to be Swedish architects, he had the idea by the campfire that each of them should design their own treehouse. Kent and Britta opened the Treehotel in 2010, and it has been owned by Jonas Olsson and Hannah Wennebro Olsson since 2022.
TRUNK — The strengths
It’s a childhood dream for many people to sleep in a treehouse just once! And that dream can be made a reality here. At the Treehotel, you can sleep high up in the treetops of the mighty Norrland natural landscape. The structures are far from DIY lodges – they are all designer accommodation units created by renowned architects. Each one is different and each one tells its own story. The Treehotel combines adventure and nature with design, which is something really quite special.
TREE INHABITANTS — The guests
From a couple looking for a romantic getaway to globetrotters wanting to tick something off their bucket list and families who want to experience something special together – the guests are as diverse as the treehouses themselves. What unites them is a love for nature and design and the search for extraordinary holiday accommodation.
LEAVES — The new features
The guesthouse was carefully restored, while the restaurant and reception building were modernised. There is now also a pick-up service from the airport, as well as exciting activities during your stay thanks to partnerships with various suppliers.
BRANCHES — The direction
The implicit aim is to build new treehouses and there are loads of great ideas. Improvements are planned in all areas, be it in terms of service or cuisine. Overall, the direction is to remain the same and conscious growth is the goal.
CROWN — The vision
The new owners are aware of their roots and want to offer guests a magical experience in a unique setting just like founders Britta and Kent did. A stay at the Treehotel should stay as authentic and personal as it was before, but keep providing new surprises. The sky is the limit!
