Stockholm Waterfront has been launched with great expectations – a congress centre with facilities for up to 3,000 people and a four-star hotel with 418 rooms, right in the very heart of Stockholm. Located between the World Trade Centre and Stockholm’s historic City Hall, right next to the central station and the airport train Arlanda Express, the Waterfront Congress Centre, which is scheduled to open in 2010, is already being referred to as one of the world’s leading meeting venues.

Rezidor has secured the prestigious contract to operate both Stockholm Waterfront Congress Centre and the hotel, the Park Inn Stockholm Waterfront. The hotel is part of one of Europe’s fastest growing and most dynamic hotel chains, and will have a spectacular location overlooking Lake Malaren and City Hall. It will include 418 comfortable and well equipped rooms with views over Stockholm, an all-day restaurant, bar and fitness centre.

Stockholm Waterfront Congress Centre with its spectacular design and shimmering roof top will be a unique venue, placing Stockholm among the select group of cities around the globe offering congress facilities of this magnitude. Accommodating up to 3,000 people, the very flexible auditorium will be equipped with state-of-the-art technology, providing an ideal environment with perfect acoustics for concerts, performances and exclusive product launches. The centre’s banqueting facilities will offer splendid views for up to 2,000 people of the City Hall and Lake Malaren.
