The project consists of about 22,400 square meter spread over 11 floors. The hotel will be part of the Nordic Choice Hotels chain Comfort Hotel with 336 rooms, 88 apartments for long-term accommodation and Nordic Choice Hotels Swedish headquarters.

The building is designed for a very low energy consumption and will be certified according to FEBY 18 Gold, a certification used for energy-efficient buildings, and BREEAM level Excellent. BREEAM is an international standard that places tough demands on indoor climate, non-toxic materials and also requirements for ventilation and lighting conditions.

The construction work will begin immediately and the new hotel is scheduled for completion during the first quarter 2021.
