Welcome to Malmö!

We’re proud to be placed right in the heart of Malmö, the capital of falafels and bicycling. Malmö is the fourth most international city in the world, after London, New York and Washington DC, and has easy access to the rest of the world through Kastrup airport, located just 30 minutes away.

We’re feeling pretty confident when we say that Malmö is kinder than most cities - it's a global city captured in a small, friendly town. People here love to help other people out, and that's just one of the many reasons why we love Malmö, and think that you will, too.
