Here, we enjoy bathing year-round, and Lysekil has its very own bathhouse, built over 100 years ago, exclusively for this purpose!
Lysekil was the fourth seaside resort established on the West Coast in the 1800s, and in 1847, Havsbadet (Sea Bath) was founded in Lysekil, where the historic cold-water bathhouse was later built in 1906. Staying at a seaside resort was a fashionable and attractive experience among the society in the mid-1800s. It was believed that bathing should promote health, and particularly bathing in seawater was considered beneficial. Year-round. The unique quality of the air along the coast, with salty winds and "strong air," was considered especially healthy. Furthermore, the bathing doctor Carl Curman believed that it was healthy to drink seawater as well. The recommendation was half a glass a day in the morning. Mixing seawater with whiskey was a popular way to start the day. Many seaside environments have been affected by the passage of time, but Lysekil's cold-water bathhouse lives on with the support of the Friends of the Cold-Water Bathhouse.
Here, you will experience the curative effects of these health baths. A dip in the fresh waters of Gullmaren stimulates blood circulation, and afterward, you can warm up in the wood-fired sauna.
The package includes:
- Welcome coffee in the Grand's library
- Admission to Lysekil's cold-water bathhouse with sauna
- Bathrobe & bath towel
- 2-course dinner
- Overnight stay in a double room - sleep well in soft beds from Viking Beds of Sweden
- Delightful breakfast buffet with freshly brewed coffee, eggs made to order, and freshly baked croissants
Price from 1495 SEK per person.

Our Rooms
At Grand Hotel, no two rooms are alike. Here, present and past are charmingly intermixed. Some rooms are small and picturesque with alcove beds, while others are larger, accommodating the entire family when extra beds are added. Grand Hotel Lysekil also features two suites. Grand Hotel Lysekil is a vintage hotel where each room is individually decorated, and its walls are steeped in history. Some even say it is haunted.
Accessibility Database
Here is information about accessibility at Grand Hotel Lysekil.
As the hotel was built in 1878, unfortunately, there is no elevator in the building, resulting in somewhat limited accessibility.
Therefore, we also want to mention that there is a handicap-accessible apartment at our sister hotel, Fjordhotellet, which is located on the ground floor where you can drive right up to the building with a car.
The Accessibility Database (TD) is currently the only database in Sweden that offers information to residents and visitors about physical accessibility in everyday life. TD was originally developed in 2005 by the Västra Götaland Region, West Sweden Tourist Board, the collective disability movement in West Sweden in cooperation with companies and municipalities in Västra Götaland.
