We stayed during a short heatwave and the week of students graduating. The hotel was air conditioned and very relaxed to sit in, however the bedrooms are not, hence we had to have the window open at night. Unfortunately, and although the road junction is mostly quiet, we did get significant noise when the clubs closed, and when the new graduates drove by tooting their car horns (which I believe is the Danish tradition). There was also the normal City early morning noise of deliveries, cleaners, etc. If it had been cooler then we could have closed the window as the double glazing was effective.
