ABOVE: Buildings in Nyhavn, Copenhagen's trendy waterfront district.
Admiral
A renovated 18th Century brick granary in Nyhavn houses a modern, comfortable
hotel that overlooks the water and is just a short walk from both the Strøget
pedestrian zone and the Royal Palace. During the excellent buffet
breakfast in the Admiral's waterfront dining room, you can watch the DFDS
Seaways ferry arrive from Oslo each morning.
See hotel site.
City
This Best Western affiliate has no-smoking rooms and allows pets. It's located
in the city center, about 400 meters from Kongens Nytorv.
First Hotel Vesterbro
The centrally located First Hotel Vesterbro was Copenhagen's first all-new hotel
building in 15 years when it opened in 1999. The 403 rooms have Spanish cherry
furniture on parquet floors. Half are set aside for non-smokers, and five rooms
are equipped for disabled guests.
Imperial
The Imperial Hotel is a member of the Golden Tulip group. It's near
the Vesterport S-train station, about 300 meters from the main railway station
and Tivoli Gardens. See hotel site.
Kong Frederik
With a location near Rådhuspladsen
(Copenhagen's main square) and Strøget (Europe's longest pedestrian street),
this four-star deluxe hotel is convenient to sightseeing and shopping. It has an
English theme, and its bar--the John Bull Pub--caters to both foreign visitors
and Danish Anglophiles. Celebrity guests have ranged from Desmond Tutu to Boy
George. See hotel site.
Sofitel Plaza
The French Sofitel chain is well represented by the Plaza, which faces
Tivoli Gardens. The 93-room boutique hotel was commissioned by King Frederick
VIII in 1913.
Phoenix
This 300-year-old building has been a mansion, a 19th Century luxury hotel, the
Allied military headquarters after World War II, and the offices of the Danish
Communist Party. In 1991, it reopened as a hotel in Copenhagen's financial
district.
Sophie Amalie
North-facing rooms at the former Codan Hotel have views of Amalienborg Palace.
Other rooms face the harbor promenade and the city center.
