Scandic has entered a long-term lease agreement with Skanska for a new climate-neutral hotel in Sundsvall
The climate-neutral hotel, named Scandic Sundsvall Central, will feature 210-rooms, a restaurant and bar area on the ground floor and spa & wellness facilities, gym and meeting rooms on the first floor.
Energy efficient
The building’s frame, facade and interior will be made of wood, meeting the requirements for the LEED Gold certification. It will also have solar panels on the roof, so it will maintain a very high energy standard.
The hotel is expected to open in 2024.
‘Modern and attractive’
Peter Jangbratt, Head of Scandic Hotels Sweden, said: “Scandic’s new hotel in Sundsvall will be a modern and attractive meeting place ideally located in an exciting area where we can see a growing demand for hotel accommodations.
“We’ve been developing the hotel together with Skanska for the past two years and naturally, it feels extremely positive to be further strengthening our hotel offering in the city.”
Sustainability values
“It is gratifying to now have Scandic as a tenant – a company that shares our values in terms of sustainability and with which we have worked closely in other projects”, adds Joakim Åkesson, Regional Manager at Skanska Sverige.
