A21 Cocktail Lounge

hbirot — Mon, 05 Sep 2011 12:14:12 +0000

A21 is a seriously stylish place. Since 2007 when it opened, it has established itself as one of Helsinkis best cocktail spots. You will not just find the classic cocktails but also a selection of Finnish triples.

Another section of the menu harks back to drinks that were popular in the late days of the 19th century: if you’re at all interested in cocktails, you really need to pay this place a visit. Despite being housed in a former sex shop, the interior is incredibly elegant and attractive. If a little intimacy is what you seek, with a date maybe or a small group of friends, then make sure you grab one of the comfy cushioned booths, curtained off with white silk. The staff are friendly and the atmosphere is exclusive without being stuffy.

Your Event in the unique Blue lagoon

hbirot — Thu, 30 Jun 2011 10:26:15 +0000

Blue Lagoon’s mission is to create energy for life through forces of nature.

Energy is the foundation of life. We need energy to maintain good health and well-being for body and mind. The earth’s creative power is a primordial force that nourishes this energy. In certain places on earth, it’s possible to experience and become close to this creative power.

The Blue Lagoon is one of these places providing direct access to nature, a sustainable fountain of energy captured through science and technology. The Blue Lagoon taps raw forces to enhance energy of life, health and wellness through a geothermal spa experience, treatments and products.

The Blue Lagoon is one of Iceland’s most visited sites with more than 400.000 visitors annually. The bathing lagoon is 5000 m2. At each time the lagoon holds six million liters of geothermal brine all of which is renewed in 40 hours. Blue Lagoon’s guests actually bathe between two continents as the Euro – Asian and American tectonic plates meet at the Blue Lagoon.

Events
The stylish setting of the Blue Lagoon is perfect for all kinds of events. Mystical atmosphere creates everlasting memories. Lava Restaurant is built into the lava surrounding the area. It is a perfect choice for weddings, anniversaries and other events and seats as many as 300 guests and accommodates as many as 600 guests during stand-up receptions. A glass staircase leads people to the Bar and Lounge area on the second floor. The roof of the restaurant is a viewing platform with beautiful view of the lagoon and the surrounding area.

Midnight sun in Stockholm

hbirot — Thu, 30 Jun 2011 10:23:20 +0000

STOCKHOLMERS revel in the long days of summer when the sun rises as early as 3:30 a.m. and doesn’t set until after 10 p.m. Many locals escape to their country houses, but those who remain in the city spend as much time as possible outdoors — an easy feat since water and parkland make up almost two-thirds of Stockholm. Situated on the Baltic at the mouth of Lake Malaren, Stockholm is built on 14 islands connected by bridges. On sunny days, waterside bars and cafes are packed with people wolfing down summer favorites like herring (served in a variety of ways) and toast Skagen (shrimp in mayonnaise with lemon and dill served with rye bread). Everywhere, visitors will find establishments — new and venerable — celebrating Nordic design, cuisine and culture.

Stockholm´s peerless Archipelago

hbirot — Mon, 30 May 2011 12:32:16 +0000

Most unique and spectacular of all is of course the Stockholm Archipelago – a vast, fan-shaped maritime world of more than 24,000 islands, islets skerries and rocky reefs, of which only about a thousand are inhabited.
Across the entire span of the archipelago, a distance of more than 100 kilometres from north to south, visitors can choose from an excellent selection of restaurants and accommodation – from exclusive hotels and inns to simple but comfortable youth hostels and camping grounds.

Many of the larger hotels and inns are also open in winter, when the scenery is every bit as spectacular as it is in the summer. It’s also possible to travel by boat from Nybroviken or Blasieholmskajen in central Stockholm and enjoy a traditional Swedish Christmas buffet on board, or indeed at one of the many restaurants in the archipelago – an unforgettable mid-winter experience. As a professional DMC in Sweden and Stockholm, we are proud to offer you access to this peerless Archipelago.
