About Gothenburg for Solo Travelers

Sweden's most likeable city where the world's biggest cinnamon buns are served in wooden 19th-century cafés, and ferries depart daily into a beautiful West Coast archipelago.

Solo Travel Tips· Solo Friendly

Gothenburg is Sweden's most likeable and underrated city for solo travelers — the Haga neighbourhood's wooden houses and legendary cinnamon buns (världens största kanelbulle — world's biggest), the Universeum science museum, and the archipelago accessible by ferry make it excellent. The Liseberg amusement park is surprisingly fun solo. Very English-speaking and very welcoming. Easy ferry connections to Denmark and Norway.

Gothenburg's most stylish small hotel — a 32-room Art Nouveau property in the Vasastan neighborhood with individually designed rooms, an excellent ground-floor bar, and the perfect location for exploring the city's world-class restaurant scene on foot. The design-forward aesthetic and genuine service set it apart.
