Una saga hist?rica al estilo de Downton Abbey situada en el Grand H?tel de Estocolmo en los albores del siglo XX.

Estocolmo, 1901. En el Grand H?tel todo est? listo para albergar el banquete de los primeros Premios Nobel mientras la direcci?n mantiene una reuni?n de urgencia para encontrar una soluci?n a la p?sima gesti?n que est? a punto de llevar el hotel a la bancarrota. Hasta que alguien propone el nombre de una mujer: Wilhelmina Skogh, propietaria de varios hoteles situados junto a la red ferroviaria que recorre el pa?s. Una mujer que cree en el trabajo duro, la disciplina, la excelencia en el servicio y en la capacidad de las mujeres para ejercer responsabilidades que hasta entonces les hab?an estado vetadas. Wilhelmina responde a la oferta con una carta en la que plantea que el hotel debe asumir una importante y costosa renovaci?n para poder ser rentable. La direcci?n acepta sus propuestas y ella se traslada a Estocolmo. Enseguida conoceremos a las mujeres que la acompa?ar?n en su aventura: Elisabet, vieja amiga y dama de la corte que es hu?sped permanente del hotel; Ottilia, camarera en uno de los hoteles de Wilhelmina que sue?a con trabajar en Estocolmo; Margareta, jefa del servicio de limpieza, atrapada en un matrimonio abusivo... Un grupo de mujeres que a lo largo de la novela mostrar?n sus secretos, sus sue?os, sus amores... y, sobre todo, la f?rrea amistad que las sostiene.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A historical saga in the manner of Downton Abbey, set in the Grand H?tel Stockholm, at the dawn of the twentieth century.

Stockholm, 1901. At the Grand H?tel, everything is in place to host the first Nobel Prize banquet, while management is holding an urgent meeting to deal with the terrible administration that is about to bankrupt the hotel. Until someone mentions a woman's name: Wilhelmina Skogh, owner of several hotels near the train tracks that run across the country. A woman who believes in hard work, discipline, excellence in service, and in women's capacity to exercise responsibilities up till then forbidden to them. Wilhelmina replies to the offer with a letter, where she states the hotel must undertake an important and expensive renovation in order to become profitable. The management accepts her proposal and she moves to Stockholm. We immediately meet the women who will accompany her in her endeavors: Elisabet, old friend and lady of the court, a permanent guest at the hotel; Ottilia, a maid at one of Wilhelmina's hotels, who dreams of working in Stockholm; Margareta, head of the cleaning crew, trapped in an abusive marriage... A group of women who will display throughout the novel their secrets, dreams, and loves... but above all, the ironclad friendship that sustains them.
