Location, location in this retro-themed hotel in the heart of the city

Hotel Alexandra is the only hotel in Copenhagen with a Danish-retro theme. The classical building encapsulates over 100 years of Danish tradition in the heart of the city. The hotel has developed its own unique atmosphere, uniting proud old architecture and traditional design with modern facilities. The hotel has its own spa and bistro. The central location is ideal for tourists, with sights such as Tivoli Gardens nearby.

Rooms

The hotel has 61 rooms in four different sizes, from a small Danish retro room to a deluxe Danish designer room. The retro rooms feature genuine Danish furniture and art from the 1930s, '40s and '50s. Designer rooms have furniture inspired by some of Denmark's most famous architects and designers. All rooms have a private bathroom with shower or bath, a desk and chair, telephone, soundproofed windows, flat-screen television, Internet access (fees apply), tea- and coffee-making equipment, electronic safe, and fan.

Dining

Bistro KBH
The kitchen at Bistro KBH reflects the chef's roots in French cuisine supplemented with fresh Scandinavian flavours. The Bistro aims at giving you an experience of the French kitchen at a reasonable price, without you having to leave the table hungry, on the lookout for a "plsevogn" (a special Danish fast food concept, which you ought to try - just for the sake of it!). Another way of describing Bistro KBH is a wine brasserie; this is because of the extensive selection of wines, many of them which are sold by the glass.

Great location, that' all

The Alexandra is located in a very central location, couple blocks from Tivoli, 10 minutes walk from Central station and Stroguet but just is all positive about it. We arrived early in the morning a couple of days before our Baltic sea cruise, our room wasn't ready until middle the afternoon, our room was in the fourth floor facing the street a very busy and noisy boulevard that even with the windows closed was impossible to sleep soundly, to the point that they provide us with ear plugs to mitigate the street noise, to make matters even worse this hotel do not have air conditioning, a fact that I didn't see anywhere in the description of it, this is important when your stay is in late August and can't open the windows, however the hotel provide us with a very small portable fan for ventilation. The icing on the cake came at check out when the lady at the reception try to double charge us for the bicycle rental of the day before which we payed at the time of rental, even when I showed her the credit card receipt she didn't believed me only when I produce a print receipt she accepted in a very rude manner. We fell in love with Copenhagen not so much with this hotel.

Great location, clean. Very small room. Bed takes up most of the space, hard to even get out a suitcase. Staff were terrific. Wonderful location.

Adequate room

The room was very small, but adequate--much smaller than the hotel I stayed in Stockholm (comparable value). The hotel is in a great location and walking distance to lots of places. My only beef was that the hot water in the shower kept changing temps. The staff were nice and helpful.

Were moved to another hotel

we arrived to hear that there was a problem and they needed to move us to another "comparable" hotel. It was farther away but they paid for a cab. It was not a comparable hotel. However, the Savoy staff were fabulous, the breakfast wonderful and we told the Savoy we were happy to have been booted out of the Alexandra Hotel.

Value for location

Conveniently located (short walk to the rail station and Tivoli Garden), yet far enough outside the dust of Copenhagen's ubiquitous construction. Small, but reasonably comfortable room. Excellent staff. Double windows, when both shut, effectively keep out the noise from the busy boulevard below. I'd worry about a stay in the summer, though, since the hotel has no A/C and the windows would need to be open. Otherwise, I'd recommend this hotel and stay there again myself.

Great location, but really basic

Friendly, helpful front desk staff, and a great location a block up the street from Tivoli, but the room was really tiny, with a thin and saggy mattress. I had to use the chair for my suitcase, as there was no place else to put it. This was the last two nights of a 10-night trip, so we didn't want to fully unpack. The bathroom was compact but functional, and free wi-fi was great. But NO air conditioning. The street is noisy, so it is a choice between a little air and the street noise. There was a fan. . . .

Great location, service

The hotel was easy to get to using the train into the city and walking. The staff for very helpful, the breakfast was great. They were genersous in allowing us to leave bags and sight see befor or departure. For a short vist in Copenhagen I would recommend this hotel.

In for a conference

And as a place to stay for a few nights, was great. Charming in its appearance, the room was just the right size for me. Two blocks from the S train, one stop to the Metro - very convenient to get to/from the airport and to the Bella Center, which is where my event was held. Would stay there again!

convenient location

You can trust the on line reviews of this hotel. Staff very helpful , central location, clean room, good service. Would recommend. North Americans should not be critical of the small room size. It was spacious compared to a room in New York near Times Square!

Great location in Copenhagen

We had a pleasant stay at Alexandra Hotel. After hopping on three separate flights, we took the metro to Nørreport and walked down Nørre Voldgade to the hotel. It wasn't ready for occupancy since we arrived so early, so we placed our luggage in the pile in the small downstairs room. Not ideal, but at least it was something. After wandering around for an hour (there are some cool shops nearby) we returned and the room still wasn't ready so we just hung out in the lobby for a while. Eventually a room did open up (not our original one apparently) and we got situated. Overall it was average size, fun decorations. There is no air conditioning in this hotel, as previously noted. We had a taxi reserved so we could hop on our cruise the next day, which was on time and reasonably priced for Copenhagen.

Time-saving tip: In Hotel

If you're staying in a room facing H.C. Andersens Blvd, make sure you find the earplugs provided in the bathroom. We didn't see these until the following day, and since we had to keep the window open to stay cool, we didn't sleep so well.
