Nominated for Denmark's Best Seaside Hotel
What characterizes a stay at Melsted Badehotel is the true seaside hotel experience on Bornholm. We are the first seaside hotel on the island, we have the best location here and the most beautiful setting - and we have real Bornholmers at the helm, both in the restaurant and at the hotel, with years of experience. That's why we've been nominated for Denmark's best beach hotel for the second year in a row.

Winter Island
Autumn and winter on Bornholm offer the opportunity to experience nature and city life in a different way. The island changes character and the spectacular nature becomes more raw. On the winter island of Bornholm, you automatically slow down and find time for contemplation and presence. Put on your hiking shoes and explore the cliffs, coastal paths, beaches and forests, such as Ekkodalen along the beautiful plank path that winds through the valley and hear about "Møller drikker øller"... Ekkodalshuset is open for lunch some days and in the kiosk you can buy soups, coffee/tea or Lumumba to warm you up.

Island of Sunshine
Summer is back, bathrobes are back and all our guests enjoy starting the day with a swim. It's also nice to think that summer lasts longer here on Bornholm, both because the rocks retain the heat and because we have more hours of sunshine than the rest of the country. So hopefully we can look forward to another good month of summer.
The restaurant is beautiful whatever the weather, where you'll be pampered all day long by our fantastic restaurateurs Troels and Daniel and their skilled kitchen team. It's almost like being in a "sea movie theater" to sit here and enjoy the view.

On the cover of Gastro
Summer is in full swing at Melsted Badehotel, and the hotel is full of happy and expectant summer guests. According to Gastro magazine, the country's historic seaside hotels are back in great shape, which is why the editors have also visited the seaside hotel in the annual summer edition of the magazine. Gastro visits 4 of the country's best seaside hotels, including Melsted Badehotel, which has been given the entire cover of the magazine.
A big part of being at a seaside hotel is the dining experience. We are so happy that Troels Madsen and Daniel Kruse are now working their magic in the kitchen. That's why it's so nice to be recognized by Gastro, who followed Troels Madsen in the kitchen and appreciated our local connection, the importance of good ingredients and the honest, well-prepared food our restaurant offers for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
