The history of Freys Hotels is full of exciting events and interesting stories. The hotels originate from one of the oldest transport companies in Sweden, founded as early as in 1896. From horse-drawn carriages to the very first automobiles on the streets of Stockholm, our history is one of success, acquisitions and growth in most business areas. Freys is one of Stockholm's oldest brands. Our company name is derived from a horse that almost all of Stockholm's inhabitants knew of and had great admiration for. Frey was the name of the powerful and wise horse that won the high-profile long-distance ride between Stockholm and Jönköping in 1895.
And what once started with the transport of wealthy Stockholmers by horse-drawn carriages has in modern times blossomed into a company consisting of two personal hotels in central Stockholm, apartments and a house for long-term stay, a health centre, a travel agency and a limousine service. And more activity will most certainly ensue...
If you are interested in reading our whole exciting story, the Book about Freys can be found in the lobby and in all the hotels’ rooms.
