The Elite is Jönköping's harbourside show-stopper. Rooms are chic, with either pastel,
Carl Larsson-inspired undertones or a more contemporary combo of black-and-white pho-
tographs and natural hues. There's a sauna, a pool table and a slinky restaurant, as well as
a banqueting hall fit for royalty.
