Kanalhuset, Copenhagen

Relaxed, felt like home. Great food and friendly team

Kanalhuset is perfectly located in Christianshavn. The metro from/and to the airport is very close and you are also very close to the opera, the theatre, Nyhavn and Indre By. However, all the other quarters (Vesterbro, Nørrebro, Østerbro etc.) can easily be reached, especially by bike. In the area around Kanalhuset are some nice cafés and bars to enjoy a coffee or an aperitivo before dinner. The highlight are the apartments, which are spacious and beautifully designed with mid century scandinavian furniture and design objects. There was pretty much everything you need, including a washer and dryer and even a steamer for your cloths. The bed was very comfortable, one of the comfiest I have had in a hotel so far. I’d absolutely recommend splurging on an appartment. The appartments will not only be much more soacious but they are licated on floors 1-3, while the regular rooms are in the souterrain. We had lunch and breakfast once at Kanalhuset and it was delicious. They offer quite some social activities (we would have loved to join the bath and the cruise and singing, but they weren‘t offered when we were there) which are free to join if you stay at the hotel.

The only thing that could be improved are the blinds in the bedroom. They didn’t really block out a lot of light and being in the north in June, it gets dark very late and bright very early. They do provide sleeping masks but blackout curtains would be better. They also wrote that the bed can be set up as a twin but in reality there will be an additional foldable bed, which unfortunately is nowhere near as comfy as the big bed.

Spacious, clean, excellent location, restored old building to a high standard.

It gives a personal touch to your stay. Staff is very nice and helpful, they have different activities that their staff encourages all guests to do - singing, swimming, running. The rooms are nice and the service is top notch. They organize communal dinners where guests get to interact with local folks and share food and stories.

Lovely property in a brilliant location! Apartment was fabulous and the staff were all so helpful and friendly.

Nothing to dislike!

Friendly staffs, great food, and cozy room.

We stayed at one of the apartments for 4 nights, and for some reason the bathroom has a strong sewer smell especially towards the end of the night; it was appreciated that the cleaning service took place in the morning when we're out and came back to a less smelly bathroom, but the odor surely came back every night 😂

Homely feel

Not so friendly with heavy suitcase.

Very friendly and helpful staff; spacious, clean apartment; quiet but reasonably central location.

Very well run. All the staff were very friendly

Location perfect. On the canal and close to everything. Our apartment was beautiful. Simple yet stylish. Very relaxed hotel with everything you could need but not showy.

Apartment yet has restaurant and lovely bar

Everything was just amazing! Very comfortable, well localed, cozy, and with so much care about the details!! Would definetely recommend! The breakfast in the cafétéria is the best breakfast we ever had in Copenhaguen!

Great location, very comfortable large rooms friendly staff

The building was classic and so beautiful. My room Was a complete apartment with wonderful design. It made me very happy.

I liked everything!

Cozy place by canal. Great location! We could walk to most of attractions. Friendly staff. In-house cafe and restaurants offer good drink and home-made food. Don t forget to book activities there.

Such an inviting and beautiful space in a wonderful location.

I can't think of a single thing.

Brilliant place....excellent communal dining experience....dont hesitate. If you want a tip top place from which to explore Copenhagen this is it. Thanks so much 👍🏼👍🏼

If you stay here, we highly recommend booking for the dinner - it was a great experience. Our room was available for early check-in, but they did have a luggage storage room we could have used if the room was not ready. Cafe/Bar had good food.

Signage could be improved a bit. After a long travel day, it was not clear to us that we needed to go to the top floor to check in at the bar. This was likely our own mistake as I'm sure it was in the welcome email.

Really lovely homely hotel with a local touch and beautiful decor.

Nothing

Very comfortable and nicely appointed room. The hotel itself was beautifully decorated and there were many thoughtful touches throughout our stay. We especially enjoyed the lunch!

The only challenge during the stay was finding a spot to work on a laptop.

Simple and very comfortable

In basement rooms at front there is noise from the street

What a beautiful place. The whole concept is positive. The rooms are downstairs, so they're very quiet, people live on the first floor and the dining, bar and resting area are on the 2nd floor. The decor is fantastic, beautiful, and VERY tasteful - full of Danish design, fabrics and lots of seating area. The breakfast is a la carte so you get what you order and only pay for that. The granola and sourdough bread are to die for:)) I loved the social dining concept. It's a big thing in Denmark.

The only thing I didn't appreciate was the garbage truck at 6:00 on Wednesday morning. Dragging containers over the cobblestones is quite loud. Thankfully it was only one day.

A very nice hotel in Christianhavn, which is arguably the nicest area in Copenhagen. You can easily walk into town from this hotel, or use the Metro. All of the staff were friendly and helpful and pleasant to deal with. The bar area is very stylish, which is where we had breakfast. The breakfast was great, with wonderful coffee and orange juice. I will definitely return to this hotel on my next trip to Copenhagen as this place is so very Danish.

Nothing to report.

A beautiful hotel that feels uniquely Danish. Warm and welcoming hospitality- a highlight was attending the social dinner with wonderful food and a great atmosphere. We will return!

The whole vibe of this boutique hotel is very special. We loved the decor and ambience. The room was roomy for our family of four and we were very comfortable.

Blackout shades on the windows would have been nice. We have small children and they woke early because of the light in the room.

Beautiful, stylish, clean hotel. We will definitely stay here again.

There was nothing to dislike.

Great staff, great service, great food. Bravo !

Atmosphere

No fridge, kettle, glasses etc

right on a canal on a very pretty street

the carpets on the floor made it so hard to push a bag with wheels

Fantastic place with canal views in a very nice side of Copenaghen, at a short walk from the centre. The flat is really beautiful, nicely furnished and with all the necessary tools available. It's been a fantastic stay!

Nothing

Great location opposite a canal. Lovely historic building and it felt more like a guesthouse than a hotel which I much prefer. Easy walk into the centre but there was also the metro close by and being January we used it quite a bit. We only had one evening meal but it was delicious and the breakfasts were very good too. The prices for food and drinks were quite reasonable for Copenhagen. Plenty of other places to eat close by too. The room we had was in the basement and large enough for 3 of us. Staff were all friendly and helpful.

My only suggestion is a firmer pillow in the rooms.

I've stayed several times previously but in the apartments. This time because of changed personal circumstances I decide to stay in one of the small basement rooms just before Christmas. It was exactly what I required. The bathroom was super. Breakfasts were exceptional. The staff were very attentive and caring. The location on the Christianshavn Kanal is wonderful. its a short walk to the metro and buses for which it is best to download the Rejsekort app for your phone (will save you money). The local area is full of good restaurants and cafes.

The small basement room that i had did not have a wardrobe but that was a very minor issue.

Great vibe, beautiful decor, quiet, relaxing

It’s a set in a beautiful historic building that has been renovated and decorated with great care and charm. We stayed in one of the apartments for 5 nights in mid winter so opted for space to be able to really relax in after exploring the city all day. The staff were always friendly and helpful and the food and drink offered were high quality and good value. The communal dinner was an interesting experience, sharing great food and conversation with fellow guests and visitors to the hotel.

Beautifully furnished and a true hidden gem

We loved everything

Everything. Lovely staff - we had our room upgraded for free and the breakfast was brilliant! The apartment was beautiful and thought the staff went above and beyond to provide an incredible service.

Heating was on too high. It was boiling. We appreciate it was quite chilly outside however it sometimes made it difficult to sleep well.

The staff were wonderful and the accommodation was really great. I had a fantastic communal dinner at the restaurant which I highly recommend.

Fantastic hotel close to city center. Beautiful interior with a specific atmosphere. Big recomendation.

Staff was very nice and helpful. Upgrade totally blew my mind, having a lovely apartment to my use. Also original rooms seemed spacious and comfy. The social area - the bar/breakfast room - was a nice common space.

Had stayed for 1 night previously and enjoyed it so much that we booked to return. Just loved everything about it - a boutique hotel in the best possible sense.

The only tiny aspect to mention here was that we weren't sure where the entrance was on the first occasion we got there - it isn't very obvious

everything was beautiful calm and friendly.

the whole of life is too expensive so I can't fault it for that

The communal dinner was excellent. Book in advance as they are busy every evening.

This is a beautiful hotel, the location, the building and the interior design are second to none. The staff were very friendly and helpful - we will definitely stay here the next time we are in Copenhagen.

Beautiful historical property with amazingly courteous staff. Great community spaces.

l loved the location , and the ambience in the hotel. I felt very welcomed. The social dinning was excellent and great fun.

The only thing I was expecting was perhaps facilities to make tea and coffee in my room. However quickly became used to this.

Fantastic location, very close to the centre, easy for walking around. Brilliant atmosphere, I very much loved the building it is located in! Staff were so nice and helpful, it was beyond amazing.

Everything was smooth and cosy. Spacious rooms, comfortable beds, good equipments, lovely staff.

The room we stayed in had windows directly on the street - not the quietest but overall not too bad.

This hotel is so perfect! Staff are so lovely and welcoming and the decor really was incredible. Wish I could have stayed longer. Beds are super comfy too and the area is absolutely perfect.

Unique, beautiful, very comfortable.

Not baby friendly. No change tables- I had to change my baby on the bathroom floor! Also no high chairs which meant we had to cancel our dinner reservation and eat out for all other meals too.
