Good value hotel with friendly staff and with minor inconveniences
Good price and really friendly staff. Fun happy hour in lobby. Good location near TorvehallerneKBH and Norreport station. Good Italian restaurant attached to hotel.
Shower doesn’t drain without getting rest of bathroom floor wet. Interesting layout. Our room had a beam that protruded and we bumped our heads several times.

Excellent location and nice reception staff
Reception staff and location Quite room Breakfast in next door hotel Kong Arthur, still quite expensive to be honest but very nice and service was excellent
Bed, pillows are not comfortable at all, bunch of extension cables with sockets for charging cell phones under the table desk, room was basic but not with standard features. Maybe other rooms are equipped with standard features.

Great location, friendly staff , afternoon drink is a lovely touch
Ideally located The early evening drink is a really nice touch. Quiet location but central for all of the tourist attractions . Staff are friendly and helpful Clean rooms
The twin room had two single beds and large beds would have been better

Exceptionally friendly staff and a great location
The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. We felt really welcome there and whenever we needed something, especially for our baby, they were very quick to act and cheery with it. The room was spacious and clean, and the happy hour drinks are a lovely touch, helping connect guests together. And, finally, the location is fantastic, a short walk from the canal and so many good bars and restaurants, as well as the Metro.

Outstanding breakfast and staff, great location. Will go back if I return to Copenhagen.
The staff was excellent: warm, personable, helpful, knowledgeable. The breakfast was outstanding-without a doubt the best breakfast that I have ever had at a hotel. The location was an excellent place from which to explore Copenhagen. The room was clean and fairly comfortable considering its size (we booked a "small" room for two). Comfy hour was also a great bonus.
The bathroom really is quite small. Although it was fairly functional (despite or perhaps given its size), the sink very difficult to use for shaving because it is very small. In order to get my face close enough to the bowl of the sink, I had to stick my face under the shelf above the sink and still ended up splashing water all over the floor (which was already wet from the shower).

Great hotel fabulous staff
Good location in a quiet location. Within 10-30 minutes walk of all major attractions. Staff are superb, very friendly and so helpful.
Rooms are a little tired particularly the bathrooms which could do with a refurb.

The staff is super friendly, the room are nice, you can reach a lot by foot ex. food marke at 5 min, every day you have the cozy hour and 1 free drink !
Our roome was lovely but in the roof, so because of the wall inclinaison you cannot really sit properly to read in bed....But no big deal !

We stayed here for sightseeing, it was within walking distance to all of the churches and castles. The crew was very friendly and the room was very clean. We ate breakfast at the hotel, which was a large and delicious buffet. When you book a small room, it is going to be small especially the bathroom. Overall the hotel was amazing, it was clean, had a comfortable bed and soft towels. That's what is most important to me.

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.

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.
10 March 2025
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!!
10 March 2025
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!

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.

We would definitely come back !
The breakfast and breakfast staff were both excellent .
The carpet in the room were a bit tired.

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.
