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.

We want our guests to feel at home here at Melsted Badehotel, experience Bornholm at its best and want to come back. We have been lucky enough to find our Hotel Manager on Bornholm, Charlotte Koefoed, whose heart is as passionate as ours for Melsted Badehotel. She was born and raised on Bornholm and has extensive experience in the hotel industry here on the island. 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"

- Charlotte Koefoed, Hotel Manager.

The best of Bornholm's gastronomy

We are thrilled to announce that Martin Nick Hansen and Charlotte Leffland, some of Bornholm's most experienced travel advisors, have taken over responsibility for Restaurant Melsted Badehotel. With this collaboration, we dare to promise that the dining experience at Melsted Badehotel will reach new heights, and we look forward to an exciting new season, where together we can ensure our guests a total experience in a class of its own here in Bornholm's best location.

The cuisine will continue to be based on the classic Nordic-French traditions with plenty of fresh seafood. For lunch, you'll be able to enjoy Bornholm-inspired cuisine with a selection of well-prepared dishes based on seasonal ingredients. In the evening, you can enjoy our 5-course waterfront menu, which changes daily and is based on Bornholm's rich pantry. Breakfast also varies daily with a delicious selection of local specialties, fresh fruit, berries, homemade pastries and small hot dishes.

We also look forward to hosting special events such as our famous seafood dinners every Wednesday throughout the summer. With this collaboration, we hope that pampering at the water's edge will take on a whole new meaning.
