A beautifully clean and stylish hotel, just a 5-minute walk from the metro and city center! The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, and the room was immaculate.

Gentilezza e comodità
Hotel in a very convenient location, close to the metro but also if you want to take a few walks to the center. Very kind and always smiling staff. Perfect cleaning. Recommended!

A lovely hotel would stay there again !
The staff were friendly and kind. The location was perfect and right near Nørreport Metro and train station. We had a top floor room which was cozy but spacious. Room and hotel was clean and the cozy hour was a lovely touch.
Only one elevator but stairs were accessible so this had no affect on our stay.

Lovely Copenhagen hotel.
Lots and lots to like about this hotel - room was lovely and the breakfast and the staff were really first class. Hotel was near Norreport Metro station and so was very well connected. Can't say there was anything we disliked and will definitely definitely be back. Thank you for a great visit.

Great location, very kind staff, nice rooms and overall vibe, good and rich breakfast. Breakfast and fitness room are in sister hotel so might not always be ideal.

Beautifully designed hotel in convenient location.
You have to go outside through the courtyard to the breakfast area in the adjacent hotel, which was no problem in fine weather, and the breakfast was varied and healthy.

Cozy and warm - we felt looked after by the stagf
Loved the cozy hour and how warm the room was. Also that we were allowed to store our luggage before we left in the afternoon
We couldn’t get the bathroom radiator working so it was quite chilly in there

Beautiful hotel with amazingly friendly staff.
We arrived at the hotel for our 3 night room only stay around noon and the receptionist explained that our rooms weren't available till 3pm which we had been made were aware of before our arrival. We asked could we check in now, store our luggage and go off for something to eat and collect our keys later? This wasn't a problem. Our room was bigger than we expected and spotless clean. The bed and bed linen was lovely and the bathroom had everything we needed. The area around the hotel was felt safe. All the staff we had the pleasure of speaking to were so helpful and couldn't have been anymore helpful and friendly.
There was nothing to dislike.

Wonderful, secure and beautiful. Great attention to detail
Felt very safe and secure, wonderful respectful staff members and I felt right at home!
Certain customers were slightly rude but that’s life! And tbh really not particularly bad in the order of things :) Slightly bad noise levels in the room I was situated in, I don’t personally mind that as I respect it’s an old building but some may have issues on the first floor :) Hard to fault!!

Perfect for a city break.
The room was small but perfectly proportioned. The breakfast was wonderful and location excellent. The free wine / beer at the daily happy hour was excellent.
The bathroom was extremely tiny.

Cosy hotel with lovely staff
Staff were very friendly and helpful. Asked for a large twin room and got a very spacious and comfortable room. A luggage room with a code to hold luggage until the room was ready. Checked in online before hand and downloaded an app and I received a notification with the room was ready and I could use the app as a key. Cosy hour between 5 and 6pm was a nice touch with a free drink.
All good!

Excellent location- 15/ 20 minute walk to centre/ attractions/ nightlife and only 5 minute walk to train & Metro stations with direct link to airport. Clean, well equipped room, perfect base for 2 friends sharing a room.

A wonderful stay! The hotel was beautifully detailed, with stunning flowers and a calm, elegant lobby. The staff was exceptionally kind and caring, making the experience even more special. I also enjoyed the partnering hotel’s excellent breakfast and relaxing SPA treatment. Everything was perfect, and I will definitely choose this hotel again!

Lovely, thoroughly enjoyed it and very relaxing
Great location, good restaurants and food hall nearby and within walking distance of most of the places we planned to visit.
Not much really. More tea in the rooms and a better hairdryer would be appreciated.
20 February 2025
We would definitely come back !
The breakfast and breakfast staff were both excellent .
The carpet in the room were a bit tired.
17 February 2025
Very good
Location was perfect and very central, very close to a metro station that is convenient for both going around the city and for the airport. The room wasn't very big but still very comfortable for two people and very warm! The staff was very kind and helpful. Would definitely recommend for a getaway in Copenhagen, since the hotel surely met our expectations!
It would be more convenient if the room also had a small fridge.

Lovely
The property was in perfect location with a lovely bar/cafe area near reception. It was clean and we got it at a very reasonable price for a room of 3. We loved the cosy club every evening- good way to speak to others in hotel. Staff were really friends and provided good options to eat etc!

Lovely spot for a lovely long weekend away.
Great location! Room was clean and comfortable, cozy hour was an added bonus!
The bathroom was a wet-room style which isn’t my favourite but didn’t detract from the overall experience too much.

The property is within walking distance to all the city center attractions. The rooms are clean and have all the amenities. Also, hotel has a very cosy lobby, where you can stay for a drink or two. Best part is breakfast! Fantastic breakfast with fresh food, pancakes and unlimited coffee.:)
There’s nothing that bothered me during my stay.

We use this hotel for our business stuff and 2 days vacation.
Pretty “hygge” hotel, comfortable. Staff is so amazing! The view from the room is beautiful. So much organic. we like you can go to have breakfast since 6:30 up to 11:00.
The bathroom is small and bed too. Breakfast is not cheap. And you have to go another building, winter is not good time for that. door handles are cold. It needs covers.
