Strängnäs is a historic town with a cathedral whose construction began in 1260. Not far from the cathedral is Hotell Laurentius which takes its name from Bishop Laurentius Paulinus (or Lars Paulsson, as he was known in Swedish), who founded Sweden’s second high school in nearby Roggeborgen as early as 1626. For those who enjoy cycling in areas with a historic and cultured atmosphere, the hotel is a charming option. How about, for example, the fact that there are books in the rooms for those who want to read before falling asleep?
Hotell Laurentius has 12 comfortable and well-equipped rooms. There are single rooms, twin rooms with separate beds, and twin rooms with beds placed side by side. All rooms have a shower and toilet. For those who want to unwind after a day of cycling, there is a sauna and a relaxation area. In the garden, you can admire a Ginkgo Biloba—a Chinese temple tree—whose leaves are believed to have beneficial properties.
The hotel is happy to book a table at a good restaurant nearby. For those who like golf there is a nearby course. Then the city of Strängnäs offers pleasant walks and a few kilometers away is the Arsenal, which is the country's defense vehicle museum. In Ugglans Park in Strängnäs there is the Ceramics House and anyone who wants to have a cup of coffee in atmospheric surroundings must not miss Grassagården with its 17th century buildings.
