Taking hygge to new heights, there’s an irresistibly homely feel to one of the city’s most handsome independent hotels. Open fireplaces, an airy courtyard and a book-filled lounge create an intimate living space. After dark, the focus switches to the fashionable TATA cocktail bar favoured by the city’s fashion set.
Rooms range from spacious apartments to snug single rooms inspired by golden-era train cabins, and every carefully-selected furnishing is an education in fuss-free Danish design.
Owned by a former ballet dancer, the property is in the hub of the arts district, close to contemporary galleries and the Royal Opera house. And while you’re there, make use of the hotel’s private wooden boat for aquatic sightseeing tours.
Near to all the action without shouting about its location, a sleepy backstreet setting gives this hotel an element of clandestine cool. Art galleries, refined restaurants and stylish boutiques share the cobblestone neighbourhood, along with the Amalienborg Palace, the Royal Theatre and the Royal Danish Opera.
A few steps away are the colourful houses lining the Nyhavn canal. Borrow a bike from the hotel to explore the area.
