"This was the most expensive night of my two week trip, but it was so worth it, I was worth it! Who would have thought that a 23.5 hour lay-over would be a gift! Seriously, I would do this again, with maybe a two day layover?!! Just a short walk (indoors) from the airport and I was in the lobby! I checked in a bit early and then caught the transit into the city. Enjoyed a few hours hopping on and off the red bus and ended with the last boat tour of the day. Getting to and from the hotel was a dream. The room was comfortable, and the amenities were sufficient. The breakfast was over and above! So much more than croissants and runny eggs! Loved the ginger shots, fresh fruit, and caviar! The only complaint I could make was that I woke early to view the sunrise from the Observation Deck on the 10th floor only to find it closed. :( Bravo! traveling on a nickel is fine, but a bit of luxury is sure divine! ;)"

Location was walking distance to multiple attractions, and was right on canal. Breakfast was first-class with tons of different options for all tastes. Bike rental on site, which made getting around Copenhagen easy. We reserved the spa twice, and it was worth it, basically had pool, sauna and steam room with foot baths to ourselves. Price was reasonable ($40 USD per person). Would highly recommend."

"The room was even smaller than it appeared. It seemed to be two twins next to each other but it wasn’t. It was more of a full-size bed at best. Location was okay. It wasn’t near anything that nice but at least it is walking distance to the train. Staff were friendly ‘ish but clearly not interested in sharing their knowledge of the area or answering questions in general. It was an okay value overall for what was offered. If I was staying to actually vacation in Copenhagen I would want something much nicer but this was just an overnight to fly out the next day."
