Think about how much we have, yet we long for something different. We love feeling safe yet yearn for new challenges. We raise our living standards, still we long for the fundamental, the basic. We want to live in the city but every now and then, nature calls us back. We want to be spontaneous; to be able to pack only the most essential, put on our backpacks - and just leave. We want to improvise and create, seize the day, adjust to the wind and weather, discover new paths in the forest and new streets in the city. We are not only professional or private - we are both, all of the time. We are the generation of diverse, curious, and exploring ’bon vivants’.
To us, luxury is never about the surface. It’s about encounters, contrasts, experiences, and inspiration. It’s having the opportunity to gather around the campfire instead of the TV, to hear new stories, get new impressions, or for just one moment find ourselves out of reach, offline, offgrid. Luxury to us is doing something good for other people, and to feel good about ourselves, from the inside. So, put on your backpack and a pair of shoes that works for both an expedition into the unknown and for the party tonight. Let us show you where the adventure begins – right here in the heart of the city.
Campfire at Downtown Camper
Food, Friends & Fire
At the heart of Downtown Camper’s culinary offering is Campfire, a warm and inviting restaurant where global comfort food favorites meet the flavors and ingredients of the Nordics. The atmosphere is laid-back yet vibrant— perfect for a memorable evening out. True to its name, Campfire is all about the warmth and comfort of shared meals by the fire that connects us. Expect wood-fired grilling, smoky flavors, and a menu that celebrates the best of Scandinavian ingredients.
Inspired by childhood memories, world travels, and the kind of comfort food that just puts a smile on your face, Campfire’s menu offers dishes that are both deeply familiar and pleasantly surprising. Whether you’re in the mood for a tender piece of grilled meat, fresh seafood, or a hearty plant-based dish, there’s something here for everyone.
Campfire’s chefs place an emphasis on sustainability, sourcing produce from local farmers and purveyors who share their commitment to quality and en-
vironmental care. Let’s not forget the drinks—the bar serves up a selection of craft cocktails, local beers, and expertly curated wines, perfect for pairing with your meal or enjoying on their own.
This place brings together the best parts of a night out and a night in. Think flickering firelight, cozy corners, and the kind of friendly, easygoing atmosphere that makes you want to stay for ”just one more beer”. The rustic yet modern décor adds to the charm, with natural wood accents, soft lighting, and an open kitchen that lets diners watch the chefs in action.
Campfire is the perfect place to wind down and refuel. So whether you’re dropping in after a long day, meeting up with friends, or just curious about what’s cooking, pull up a chair. There’s a spot by the fire waiting for you.

12 Lifehacks for a Living Planet
Navigating what’s sustainable can be challenging, especially knowing we must change our ways to keep global warming to a minimum. But be lost no more! We spoke to Naturskyddsföreningen who are experts at this stuff, and turns out, there are several easy ways to adopt a sustainable lifestyle with quite a small effort. So here you go; a shortlist of the very best things you can do on an individual level to minimize your environmental footprint and become a proper modern person, fit for the 2020s. Let’s go!
Be nosy
As a consumer, you have the ultimate power to impact brands and retailers. Be curious and well-informed; ask questions to show that you care about their ethical and environmental policies. Also ask if there are available spare parts for the product you consider purchasing - if the retailer offers spare parts, they probably have a more circular and sustainable attitude. And if your newly-purchased item breaks, send it back immediately and have the vendor repair it for you. Simply put, shop with care for people and planet.
More bang for the buck
Buy stuff with a good second-hand value. The biggest environmental impact is at production level, so put your things to good use and make sure they get a long life. Think circular: A basic principle is to make sure the stuff you buy can be sold again once you get tired of them, and shop second hand if you can. Support your local community, make your favorites last longer, and use the services of skillful shoemakers and tailors.
Streamline your closet
Would you pay 500 sek for a sweater you will wear only once? You probably have stuff in your closet that you never really use, and you’re not alone. Reclaim control of your wardrobe – tag your clothes and make a note every time you use it. Could it be that it’s a better idea to buy something a bit more expensive / high quality that you will use often, instead of fast fashion that you will only use once or twice?
Less energy, more fun
The rising energy prices made many of us consider our use of electricity. Thankfully, there are many ways to cut costs and this is an area where you can make a huge difference whilst saving loads of money! Energy production stands for almost a third of global emissions, so if you choose energy from
renewable sources you’re half way there. Did you know that the electricity price goes up and down depending on the time of the day? Take control, make it a sport to use as little as you can, and just imagine all the fun you will have for the money you save. You can follow your efforts and progress on the bills, or why not invest in a monitor to follow your energy use in real time?
Let’s calculate!
Some numbers for you: The consumer-based emissions are on average nine tons Co2 / person and year. Five of which are from consumption. If we are to stop at 1,5 degrees global warming (the target set in the Paris agreement), we have to arrive at one ton / person and year. You get our point, something has to be done, so why wait? Calculate your emissions in a climate calculator, and see where you as a person / household can make the biggest change. Is the secret to your sustainable lifestyle to take the train instead of the plane, eat more plant-based, or shop second hand?
Talk about it
Become a role model. Create a new environmental habit and see how you can change attitudes in your inner circle of people. Remember, word of mouth is the most effective and credible promotion. If you want to do more, talk to your local community and be a force to be reckoned with. Is your building renewing their electricity supply contract? Push for a green option!
Sharing is caring
Do as you do when you stay in a hotel, and share things with other people. Try one of the many peer-to-peer services available today. Pinning up some new shelves on the wall? Rent a screwdriver. Invited to a wedding, nothing to wear? Rent a designer dress. And honestly, why buy an expensive car if you can rent one across the street when you need it?
Every bite matters
If you can’t skip the beef altogether – choose a local, free-range or eco-labelled meat from animals that graze out in the open. Free-range cattle actually contribute to an open cultural landscape, by maintaining important biotopes for other species, and this has a positive impact on the biodiversity. If you can skip the meat, why not have a fresh veggie barbeque? There are thousands of yummy recipes and tips out there, and with a tasty BBQ sauce it’s every bit as delicious as steak - and so much more nutritious.
No ticket to ride
You don’t need a ticket to have an adventure. There are over 5000 natural reserves in Sweden, all of which are contributing to the protection of wildlife and nature. If you want to experience Sweden’s most precious natural environments, steer your steps in the direction of a National Park; we’ve got no less than 30 of them in this country! Why not start with Tyresta, just south of Stockholm? It’s the largest old-growth forest this side of Dalälven.
Not enough options? Do it yourself!
Sometimes what’s on offer in the stores is simply not good enough. Time to take matter into your own hands and - while you’re at it - learn something new. Like baking your favorite bread for example. In Sweden, there are loads of good, organic, and locally produced flour on the market, and baking is extremely hip at the moment. To be honest; what tops warm, freshly baked bread?
Check your investments
Do you know who is using your money? The financial industry makes it possible to directly or indirectly support industries that are far from sustainable. You could, through your savings, be supporting a huge environmental culprit without knowing about it. Demand transparency from your banker and make sure you invest in sustainable and ethical industries and companies. It’s as simple as this; if no one invests in the baddies, they will eventually cease to exist.
Dive into a new world
Get to know the world around you - read a book about bugs! There are loads of awesome options and here’s a shortlist for you: “Notes From A Summer Cottage” by Nina Burton, “Extraordinary Insects” by Anne Sverdrup-Thygeson, “The History Of Bees” by Maja Lunde, and “The Garden Jungle” by Dave Goulson. By learning more about all the little critters that share our planet, you will widen your own horizon and have a new perspective on just how much we depend on them for our own survival. These books offer moments of recognition, awe, and not to mention - fits of giggles!
A big thanks to our friends at Naturskyddsföreningen for helping us with this guide.

Wellness, reimagined:
The Nest
The Nest is no ordinary retreat. It has been designed to boost you with a very modern approach to wellbeing - no hushing, no pointing fingers, no fuss. This is a place where you can be yourself and kick back on your own terms while admiring the city from above.
Aching limbs after a day of exploring the city? Take the lift to the top and discover The Nest: An urban retreat and a must-see for all guests.
Leave behind the distractions of digital screens and busy traffic, embrace the vibe and discover a whole new take on wellness. Step into the sauna, shaped like a bird’s nest. Lather up in the experience showers, then head outside to the pool for a cold drink and some serious chill. Soon you will be ready for another day.
Back to basics
The ”spa world” can feel a bit intimidating to many of us: “Do this, do that, and keep your voice down”. Basically, very far from how most of us want to retreat, right? The Nest offers a fresh approach to wellness. The guiding thought behind the concept is to encourage a sustainable lifestyle - one that you can keep up with.
Today, we live in a digital world where we deal with loads of unnatural stress factors that affect our health and the way we socialize with others. People start to become aware of the importance of taking better care of themselves; to minimize screen time and focus on the meaningful relationships in life. The Nest offers an including, laid-back and utterly stand-alone experience - a new generation of wellness.
Do it yourself
There are no traditional spa treatments in The Nest. Instead, the offering has been shaped to encompass sustainability, education and longterm wellbeing. Hence, the focus on DIY treatments, where the idea is to equip you with the know-how to best take care of yourself and your skin - a knowledge that can be applied and used long after you leave the hotel.
It only gets better with time Another important thing to remember is that the tempo in The Nest
will increase through-out the day. Visit early if you are looking for some peace and quiet. The music plays softer, and there are fewer people in the retreat. As the evening approaches, the music shifts to an ambient pool club vibe as the adjacent cocktail lounge opens. It’s the perfect time and place for an aperitif in the company of good friends.
The Nest Signature Experience
Elevate your wellness routine with our signature package, designed to leave you glowing from the inside out. In addition to all the good stuff that’s included in a regular visit to The Nest, this package boosts you even more - with a vitamin-packed welcome drink and a DIY skincare ritual. This package is available from Monday-Thursday.
House Rules
Welcome to The Nest - a place for new experiences and inspiration. Togetherness, wellbeing and fun is our focus here and hence, we encourage a phone-free environment. You are not allowed to talk on your phone, but if you want to take a picture as a memory to keep from your visit, you are more than welcome. Discover flavors from around the world on our drink menu, meet new and old friends, and enjoy great music to magical views from the top of Downtown Camper. Children are amazing, but up here, they are not our primary focus - we have other spaces in the hotel where kids can be kids. This is a place for adults to socialize and regain energy. Guests from 16 years and up are welcome to visit The Nest.
How to book
As a hotel guest you always have priority, but don’t forget to pre-book your visit by contacting the Front Desk or booking directly via the QR code below Towels, bathrobes, and slippers are provided. Swimsuits are available for purchase onsite.
