Where to stay in Copenhagen
Copenhagen hotels & accommodations

I did a lot of research to find this hotel. Most hotels offering the same size room are 50% more expensive. I would suggest paying a few dollars more to get the breakfast buffet, as food is $$$$ in Copenhagen. The bed was comfortable. The bathroom had 4 star towels. The shower was strong, and plenty of hot water. A small bathroom, but functional. Americans aren...

Location, location!!! Good morning Copenhagen Hotel is so very central to the city, especially to the main Central Train station. All receptionists are so helpful and friendly. Oleanor even helped me with my luggages to the station when off-duty. So much appreciated especially when the train station lift was out of order. Hotel is so good value for money. Highly...

We traveled to Copenhagen for only one day, and Copenhagen Plaza is one of the most suitable hotel because it’s located in the center of the city. Everything — shopping center, restaurants, and tourists attractions — are in walking distance; there’s a grocery shop nearby, and the staffs are very friendly. We booked a room for three (with additional extra bed) and the r...

This is one of the best hotels I’ve ever booked in Agoda! The view from our window is absolutely stunning! It’s literally falling asleep at the tranquility of the lake (as seen from the window), and waking up to the enchanting view of the scenery. The location is perfect - just a few minutes walk to the center, yet far enough to avoid the crowd and busy streets of C...

This is a great experience for anyone who enjoys design. The hotel has an interesting history and encompasses its original Jacobsen design. The room and service was impeccable. We are able to view the historic room 606 and new fritz Hansen collaboration suites. It is a larger hotel than I would normally stay and this does pick up the American cruise trade, so it can be...

The ladies working the front desk when I was there, were very, very friendly! We had issues with my booking so it took a while to get me checked in so they upgraded me for free! They served free breakfast in the morning. It was the perfect stay for a single traveler who had a layover in Copenhagen.

The stay was good, the check in process was fast. Wifi was fast although it requires a login everytime you need to connect. The room was spacious given the size of other hotels in Copenhagen. Bed was quite comfortable but pillows were too soft for my taste. Overall it was a pleasant stay.

I stayed in the standard room for 3 nights and found the experience rather nice in general. The house rate is agreeable, the room is large enough for four-people-small-gathering, and the staff there indeed show their hospitality in many way. However, the hotel room is not that clean and tidy as the photo may show, and I could even overhear the street bustling and nois...

We stayed at 12 hotels during our 16 days Europe and this is our best hotel, beating Hilton Hotel Copenhagen Airport (we spent 2 nights there) next to airport. Highly recommended since they have shuttle bus to make up for the short distance from the airport. Very friendly and professional staffs. Unfortunately, there is no shopping, restaurant or park near the hotel wi...

Although we only stayed one night, we were very impressed with the friendly staff, the great location, the nice clean room, the excellent breakfast, and the interesting history of the building. This is not a luxury hotel but it was perfect for people like us who are usually out and about.

Sharing the bathroom was not an issue, most guests are pretty considerate. The single room I had faces the street but it was good cos the sun shines in and made the whole room so much warmer! (this was an usually cold May weather). The couple who ran the hotel and the lady cook/helper were friendly and welcoming - it was like staying at a friend's house really. Breakfa...

The Comwell Holte Hotel is ca. 35 km away from Central Copenhagen and the North Coast of Sealand. It is relatively close to the castles in Hillerod and Fredensburg.

Beware of the address, the...

Nice apartment with ample of space. a very good view right outside the apartment. supermarket is just steps away. lots of eateries nearby. there is also japanese restuarant and asian food resturant nearby.

It was a nice hotel with very clean rooms, although a bit small. The entrance of the hotel was also facing a strip club and I happened to have 1 room facing the strip club, so I just kept my blinds drawn the whole time. It was good to have English channels, like the English movies channel Canal+, on the TV, something which I realize other hotels in Copenhagen did not h...

If you love trains, this is the only hotel in Copenhagen. If you don't, they won't bother you, contrary to the bad reviews left by some princesses. The rooms date the hotel to perhaps the 70s, but it is neat, comfortable and clean. Very well located, and good value in an expensive city. And really, if you are a rail fan, do yourself a huge favour and look no further- y...

First time I stayed in this hotel, but I will definitely return when traveling to Copenhagen again. The hotel is very nice and modern equipped. Centrally located and in walking distance from the Central Station. Rooms are pretty small, but efficient. The hotel also houses the Copenhagen Icebar. Breakfast buffet is good and in the evening (18.00 - 21.00) a free evening ...

I would recommend this hotel for travellers to Copenhagen. This hotel is good value for money. Staff are friendly and helpful.

Cheap places to stay in Copenhagen

I stayed here with my high-school-senior son and one of his friends. We had separate rooms. Perhaps because of the generally high room rates in Copenhagen the clientele was not just young people. The bar area was nice, and the beer reasonably priced for Copenhagen. I'm visiting Copenhagen again this summer for a family trip and we may book here again, so I highly recom...

Few months ago, they featured Denmark as the happiest people in EU so I went there expecting to see and feel the happiness and warmth of the people.

Copenhagen is a bike transport city. I would recommend hiring a bike, you can ride everywhere, park, walk, etc.
Lovely, but expensive! I had always heard that Scandinavia (and esp Copenhagen) was expensive, but I was still shocked! I paid $11 for a 500ml lemon squash at a restaurant.
