The Collector's Hotels is a very local chain of hotels in the Old Town of Stockholm, Sweden, consisting of the hotels Lord Nelson, Lady Hamilton and Victory Hotel that started as a family business in 1973. In the Victory Hotel at Lilla Nygatan, a few builders found 18 000 silver coins and 84 silver objects buried in a corner of what today is the hotel's bar, Leijonbaren. At the end of the 18th century, a rich family by the name of Lohe lived in the building, and the treasure was probably a part of the family's fortune, but nobody knows for sure why it was buired and why it was forgotten. The treasure can be seen at the Stockholm City Museum and the Royal Coin Cabinet.
