The Neighborhood
The hotel is located in Södermalm, Stockholm's coolest neighborhood. Specifically situated in the Mariatorget area, the atmosphere is a blend of historic charm and contemporary edge.

The area is famous for its vibrant nightlife and diverse culinary scene, ranging from traditional Swedish meatballs to modern fusion. With excellent public transport links, the rest of Stockholm is easily accessible, though many guests find everything they need right here in 'Söder'.
About Hellstens Glashus
Hellstens Glashus stands as a testament to Stockholm's ability to reinvent its industrial past into something purely magical. Located on Wollmar Yxkullsgatan in the heart of the Södermalm district, this 3-star boutique hotel is housed in what was once a bustling metalwork and glass factory.

The rooms, including the intimate Small Double Rooms, are thoughtfully designed to maximize space while providing a cozy, characterful retreat. Each room features en-suite bathrooms and modern comforts, yet maintains an individual personality through curated art and unique furnishings. The location is perhaps one of the hotel's greatest assets. Situated in Mariatorget, guests are at the epicenter of Stockholm's creative scene, surrounded by independent galleries, vintage boutiques, and some of the city's finest dining.
