Liseberg's new waterpark and hotel
NCC is set to work with Liseberg on expanding the largest amusement park in the Nordic region. The contract includes a waterpark, an experience hotel and extra parking. Liseberg has set a budget for the project of around SEK 2 billion.
Liseberg Amusement Park is one of the Nordic region’s most popular tourist destinations, with over 3 million visitors each year. Now Liseberg is making a substantial investment to expand the park with a park-integrated hotel and water park.
Liseberg Grand Curiosa Hotel
A pony carousel from 1923 in the restaurant ? Yes. A slide to take you from second floor to the lobby? Check!
This hotel will be something different indeed. 29,000 m² total area with 457 rooms, all with at least 5 beds, a restaurant with 790 seats and a outdoor dining terrace with 130 seats, a roof bistro with 220 seats and 180 seats outdoors.
Construction started in the fall of 2019 and the hotel is expected to open in 2023.

Partnering
Running the project as a partnering contract is the optimum way of working on complex and large builds, resulting in a better end product. NCC has extensive experience of building swimming pools and aquatic centers, not least through its water and environment specialists at NCC Badhus, which will come in extremely useful when constructing one of Sweden’s largest waterparks.
