The project managers choose to stay in a cabin when they have projects in Luleå

CASE: The catenary specialists are experts in catenary systems and railway infrastructure. They carry out regular assignments for Infranord—ranging from inspection assignments on the Luleå–Murjek and Luleå–Haparanda lines to new construction projects. This involves long periods working out on the tracks and a need for accommodations that really work.

Philip Nordgren of Kontaktledarna explains that the choice of housing is more carefully considered than it might seem. With 100 to 200 nights away per year—a way of life that’s the norm rather than the exception—accommodations play a crucial role in well-being and work performance. The choice fell on First Camp Arcus in Luleå, and the reason is simple: the location, the cabins, and the feeling of coming home even when you’re not actually there.

“What we appreciate most about the accommodations is the location, as well as the fact that the beach cottages are very nice and also suitable for sharing with a colleague. It’s really nice to be able to relax by the sea after a long day out on the trail.”

Home is more than just a bed

For those who live away from home for long periods of time, having their own kitchen and a small living room isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessity. The program leaders particularly emphasize the feeling of having a real home, rather than staying in a hotel. It’s about being able to cook your own meals, having a place to unwind, and an environment that allows you to truly recharge.

On top of that, the price makes it all quite reasonable—a factor that carries a lot of weight when booking accommodations for 5 to 10 stays per year—and it’s almost always the obvious choice for assignments in Luleå.

Smooth from start to finish

Our collaboration with Avisita and First Camp Luleå has gone smoothly. Keys, information, check-in—everything has been handled without any hassle. That’s exactly the kind of simplicity a field team values when energy needs to be focused on the job, not on logistics.

Highly recommended

When asked if they would recommend the facility to colleagues, Philip gives a clear answer:

“If you’re tired of hotels and want to cook for yourself, I recommend staying in a cabin any day of the week.”
