Dining

Throughout time, many of the most famous and celebrated chefs in Sweden have passed through the Hôtel Reisen kitchen, creating their signature dishes that, today, are called classic Swedish cuisine. Today we have modernized and crafted these dishes into a contemporary dining experience. Sit on the waterfront with spectacular views or enjoy cocktails in the hotel’s unique interior surrounded by history. 

Overlooking the scenic waterfront, you’ll find Bar Reiss. It’s a friendly hangout with a mixed crowd, a natural rendezvous you’ll want to visit whether you live within walking distance or stay in town for the weekend.

The airy ambience, comfy chairs and a relaxed, homey atmosphere create the perfect backdrop, whether you’re meeting an old friend for coffee or planning for a night out.

Our friendly bartenders will mix up your favourite or recommend from a selection of coffee and cocktails — complemented by thoughtful nods to the hotel’s heritage. You should try the Espresso Martini à la Fredrik Reiss or reserve a seat for the Afternoon Coffee when visiting.

In essence: Coffee, cocktails and ‘chitchattery’. Stay for a cuppa — or till night falls.

Settled in the 17th century storage areas from times when sailing ship were trafficking Old Town. 

Bar Brahe is a mysterious Nordic-inspired bar named after the steamer S/S Per Brahe. This flagship bar of Gamla Stan pays tribute to the neighbourhood’s history and nods to its eclectic roots.

The bar is tasteful, intimate and comforting — yet its tongue-in-cheek approach to mixology will most definitely rock the boat of any visiting Landlubber. The curated DJ sets and entertaining piano sessions will guide you along into the night.
