Just outside Gränna, surrounded by forests and rolling fields, you’ll find Västanå Castle —a 16th-century estate that’s been home to the von Otter family for nine generations. Since 1948, we’ve welcomed guests to stay, eat and unwind in one of Sweden’s first castle hotels.
Each room is individually decorated, with antiques, artwork and personal touches that reflect the manor’s long history. Outside, hiking trails wind through the forest, past red wooden houses and along the ridges above Lake Vättern. Inside, you’ll find quiet corners, restful interiors and a warm welcome.
Dinner is served in the manor’s elegant dining rooms, where seasonal menus are paired with carefully chosen wines. It’s food made to be savoured—much like everything else here.
Whether you’re walking in the woods, playing tennis, or simply enjoying the stillness, Västanå offers a chance to step away from the noise and into something altogether calmer. We’ve been here for centuries, and we look forward to sharing it with you.







At Restaurant Västanå, dinner is an occasion. Each evening, we serve a seasonal three-course menu in our atmospheric vaulted cellar—thoughtfully prepared using the finest ingredients. Your evening begins with a glass of sparkling wine, and you’re welcome to join us at 6:30 or 7:30pm. Wine pairings are available to match each course, along with high-quality non-alcoholic options. It’s relaxed, elegant and rooted in the rhythm of the season. Just give us a call to reserve your table.
