The location

In the middle of the city, and still quiet

Hotell Arkad sits in central Västerås, in a spot that shelters you from the noise of the city. The central station, Västerås Kongress, Växthuset and Mälardalen University are all an easy walk away.

There is plenty to explore. The cathedral, Lake Mälaren, Kyrkbacken and Västerås Castle are all within walking distance. Kokpunkten, Scandinavia's largest action bath, is here in Västerås and is worth the trip for adults and children alike.

There are plenty of restaurants nearby — ask at reception for recommendations. Västerås is a city rich in history and culture, from cobbled streets and historic buildings to modern shopping and a lively night scene.
