A NEW CHAPTER

We look forward to welcoming you and to writing a new chapter in the long history of the seaside hotel.

We have extensive experience in hotel management both in Denmark and South Africa, where we run Nyati Safari Lodge. Common to Nyati Safari Lodge and our ambitions for Melsted Badehotel is the consistent Scandinavian quality, where magnificent nature, exclusive vacation accommodation, exquisite gastronomy, exciting activities and a high level of service are linked. We want to create a holistic experience that guests come back for again and again.

Our goal is to create Bornholm's best seaside hotel. Based on the seaside hotel's high standard and iconic appearance, the interior has been renovated in a classic style with respect for the hotel's basic DNA and zeitgeist. And most importantly, we have found the best team to pamper you here at the water's edge both in the restaurant and at the seaside hotel.

The desire for a

Locally rooted seaside hotel

We want to create a locally anchored seaside hotel based on the natural surroundings, history and local environment in and around Gudhjem. That is why hosting on site is crucial and a role we take very seriously.

Our guests should feel at home here at Melsted Badehotel, experience Bornholm at its best and want to come back again. We have been lucky enough to find our hotel manager on Bornholm, Ajaja Kofoed-Nørgaard, whose heart burns as strongly as ours for Melsted Badehotel. She was born and raised on Bornholm and has extensive experience in the service industry. She will take great pride in maintaining the high level of service that guests at Melsted Badehotel expect.

"I look forward to welcoming you, giving you an unforgettable stay and guiding you to experiences on my beautiful native island"

- Ajaja Kofoed-Nørgaard, Hotel Manager.
