Gondolen (Stockholm)

Sweden / Stockholm / Stockholm / Stadsgården, 6
 restaurant  Add category

In 1994 the famous swedish chief Erik Lallerstedt took over Gondolen, the restaurant inaugurated at October 15 of 1935 by King Gustav V and operated by the Swedish Consumer Cooperative Society. Gondolen became a popular tourist destination, where the unique view sometimes outshone the food. It became a dance restaurant and was called "a flying city hotel". In the late 1980s several changes of ownership followed and after problems with the Tax Agency and alcohol licensing Gondolen was forced to close in 1993. Erik Lallerstedt, who calls Katarinahissen and Gondolen "Sweden's Eiffel Tower", accepted the challenge to renovate Gondolen. His vision included a dining room that everyone could afford, a neighborhood restaurant, a bar and an outdoor terrace on the roof. And so it was, now supplemented with the wine bar, a reception room and the Gastronomy, where small parties can learn more about cooking and wine tasting.
