Written by RuinMyTrip Editorial from published research and official sources, not from a personal trip. It is not a traveler review and is never counted in the community rating. How we research.
What it is
A grand hotel on Kongens Nytorv in central Copenhagen, in operation since 1755, with 92 rooms and suites, a spa and a Michelin-starred restaurant.
Why travelers stay here
For the address. Nyhavn, Stroget, the metro and the royal theatre are all within a couple of minutes, which in a city best seen on foot is worth more than any amenity.
What is genuinely good
An unbeatable position, a properly staffed grand hotel, 55 suites out of 92 rooms, an on-site spa and a Michelin-starred dining room.
Downsides
Top-of-market pricing with no published rate card. A busy square outside. A degree of formality that suits some travelers and not others.
Best for
Travelers who want to walk everywhere and are willing to pay for the location, and anyone marking an occasion.
Consider staying elsewhere if
You are in Copenhagen to cycle, eat cheaply and see the neighbourhoods. Vesterbro and Norrebro will serve you better and for far less.
Practical advice
Ask for a room facing the square rather than the courtyard if noise is not a concern, because the view is the point. Rates are quoted rather than listed, so book direct and compare.
Rates and booking
Rates are not published as a fixed figure and vary by season and availability. Book direct through the hotel or ask for a quote, and treat any single advertised number as promotional.
Getting there
Metro to Kongens Nytorv, which surfaces on the square itself. It is twelve minutes from the airport on the metro, or about twenty by taxi.
Where it sits
Kongens Nytorv, the largest square in the old city, where Nyhavn, Stroget and the royal theatre meet. Central, busy and walkable to almost everything a first-time visitor wants.
How long to stay
Two nights minimum to make the location pay for itself.
Accessibility
Fully wheelchair accessible, with accessible rooms and public areas and lifts running to every floor of the building.
The RuinMyTrip verdict
The best-placed hotel in Copenhagen and priced accordingly. Worth it if walking everywhere matters to you, and hard to justify otherwise.
