Restaurant WS is inside Villa Foresta on Lidingö, about 10 minutes from Stockholm City. The building stands on a cliff with views over Stockholm and the archipelago, according to Visit Stockholm. The restaurant’s own website describes a family-oriented atmosphere and invites guests to sit in the restaurant, on the veranda or in the glass bar. It says the veranda draws on classic cooking and wine heritage, while the glass bar serves selected wines and sparkling wine and opens onto a terrace.

The restaurant can be part of a longer stay: Villa Foresta also has Acqua di Foresta, a spa with more than 1,000 square metres of pools, warm springs, saunas and a salt cave. The website says visitors can book a day-spa visit or a treatment. It does not give restaurant opening hours or meal prices in the information provided here, so check with the venue before planning around a particular service or cost.

Villa Foresta dates to 1910, when hotel director Wilhelmina Skogh named her newly built property on Lidingö. The venue’s website says the name was inspired by forests and old knight’s castles along the Rhine. Visit Stockholm lists 103 hotel rooms at the property. The available information gives no recommended visit length.
