Pater Noster competes to be named the world's most creative hotel
The tiny, windblown and remote lighthouse island on the Swedish west coast is nominated for the Best hotel creativity in the world 2022, by the prestigious Prix Villegiature Awards.
Pater Noster, A home on the horizon is nominated and voted for by travel journalists from the Financial Times, Forbes, Harper’s Bazar, La Stampa, Le Parisien, Paris-Match, Condé Nast Traveler and more.
The Prix Villegiature Awards was created in 2003 and every year since a voting jury gather, composed with international press correspondents and worldwide renowned travel journalists. They reward the best of the best hotels in the world.
”It’s a great honor to be nominated in the same category amongst the classical Métropole in Monte-Carlo and the super contemporary 48° Nord in France” says Erik Nissen Johansen, co founding Partner of Pater Noster and Creative Director of Stylt, Design Agency Extraordinaire, behind the concept of The Pater Noster, a home on the horizon.
In the outpost of the archipelago, on one of Sweden’s most windblown, barren and exposed places, Pater Noster – the king of lighthouses, was eventually built. This state-of-the-art masterpiece gave hope and guided seafarers safely for over a century. Next to it, the lighthouse keepers and their families built their home, a small-scale community on an island which had always been perceived as uninhabitable. For more than one hundred years they lived out here, on the terms dictated by the island and the sea.
2020, it once again opened the door to the lighthouse master’s home. A place for seafarers from near and far, for nature lovers and pleasure seekers, for those who are seeking tranquility or good company.
”Here, where the light is brighter and the wind is wilder, the ocean saltier and the seafood fresher. A home on the horizon” says Erik Nissen Johansen.
The 2022 Prix Villegiature Awards winners will be announced on October 17th 2022. The event will be held in the historical lounges of the private residence of The Madam Ambassador of Mexico in France.
”Wow! We are truly happy and honored to be nominated for the Prix Villegiature Awards, The Best hotel creativity in the world! We are keeping our fingers crossed for the outcome October7th”, says Mirja Lilja Hagsjö, CEO and founding Partner of Pater Noster.
