Langholmen Hotel was once a prison. The hotel is housed in the old Crown Prison, which was built in the early 19th century. In the middle of the building is the attractive gallery dating from 1866. This has given us the hotel's beautiful, open atrium. In 1975, the last prisoner was discharged and in May 1989 we opened the hotel after two years' renovation work. The cells are now pleasingly and functionally furnished, each with its own shower, WC, telephone, radio and cable TV. We have 89 single and 13 double cells, of which 10 have facilities for the disabled. All our cells are smokefree. The old prison entrance hall has been converted into a reception, with a cafeteria open 24 hours a day. Times change, and staying in a cell is now a captivating experience. We promise to give you your own key, and that breakfast consists of more than bread and water.
