Couples weekend break

The hotel was lovely. It was incredibly clean and laid out. Its location is perfect, right in the heart of Copenhagen. The only issue we had was to do with the bed covers. We were in a double room in a double bed but it was dressed with two single duvets. It was the only issue we had with the hotel.

Ideal Copenhagen vacation spot

This hotel was ideal for our weekend in Copenhagen. Very clean and nearby everything we wanted to see. They were able to accommodate our early arrival after an all night flight, something many hotels would not do. The only "glitch" was at checkout when we were charged for the stay even though we had pre-paid for the room. This eventually got partially resolved although we are still disputing part of the charges. I will make sure I understand all the charges and arrangements for pre-payment in the future, ideally at check-in, but definitely before checking out, to avoid recurrence of this type of problem.

Sightseeing tip: Long walk from hotel

Most attractions are within walking distance from the hotel, but the hop on / hop off buses in Copenhagen made seeing all the sights very easy.

Very noisey

The hotel is right across from a after hours bar that opens after the bars close, we thought it started getting noisy at about 11 pm. But we heard the bass from the music and the drunks all night and morning long. The first night we had the window open as we didn't know about what was to happen later. But we had flown in from the us and were exhausted but the only way to get air in the room is to open the window, then you hear the bar and the workers the next morning. The next day we went to the desk and a nice woman offered to move us, but then her collegue checked and apparently the only other room available was outside a generator. Which would be worse. We stayed in the same room, and closed the windows at 11:00 could hear it through the closed windows. We paid a lot of money and did not sleep. Would not recommend to anyone.

Unbeatable location for the price

Hotel was right across the street from Tivoli and within two blocks of the main shopping street. Walking distance to the train and all major sights.

Got a great rate through www.hotelclub.com, otherwise the hotel would have been too expensive. Perfect location and cool design, but warm athmosphere. Great hospitality from Mario at the front desk.

Good Location

The hotel was very centrally located. It provided a very decent breakfast. The biggest drawback was the street noise. Unfortunately part of my stay was during a weekend(with a street facing room)and the noise from the partying crowds of young people, the is a club across the street, kept me awake all night. A travelling companion who had a room facing the courtyard did not fare much better. They also experienced alot of noise from other hotel customers loudly partying in the courtyard.

A most comfortable hotel in the heart of the city! The room was nice and pleasantly old-fashiones the toilet being one of the largest I've seen in a hotel like this. We enjoyed very much the breakfast, though noisy British tourists tried to spoil the feeling. Receptionists were disarming as they struggled for understanding our Swedish spoken in Finland.
