Interview with the first hotel manager

Hi Linus, tell us how you came to have your brainwave!
I was on the way to Rome to celebrate New Year and was forced to sleep on a wooden bench. That’s when it struck me that there should be some form of value-for-money accommodation at Arlanda. Rest and Fly was the first in the world with this concept.
When was the grand opening?
We opened on 19 December 2005, and since then we have had over 70,000 guests. Things couldn’t be going any better.
How would you describe the hotel?
As a calm oasis in the midst of the stress of the airport. We try to create a fairly familiar atmosphere, and the most common ‘complaint’ is actually that our beds are too comfortable!
When are you busiest?
Pleasingly, the hotel is fully occupied most of the time. I would advise travellers to book well in advance and to bear in mind that we also offer day rooms.
When will Rest and fly be available att JFK Airport in New York?
It will probably happen, but we have to take one thing at a time.
OK. Thanks, and good luck for the future
Thanks very much.
