Danish modernist atelier
The hotel operates as a living archive of mid-century Danish design, furnished with authentic collector pieces and design books.
“each of the 59 rooms and suites has been decorated with vintage furniture and wallpaper from the ‘50s and ‘60s…”
What it’s good at
Remarkable
Vintage Danish mid-century originals furnish dedicated rooms honouring masters like Jens Risom.
What they say
Also in Condé Nast Traveler, Wallpaper* and AFAR.
the museum-like feeling first takes shape in the lobby, which is studded with significant pieces like Arne Jacobsen’s Shaker seat and Hans Wegner’s playful Papa Bear chair.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Tivoli Gardens and City Hall Square are just down the boulevard, within an easy walk of Strøget.
The rooms
Individually curated bedrooms showcase Danish originals, from Arne Jacobsen chairs to psychedelic Verner Panton textiles.
At the table
Breakfast arrives with fresh avocado toast and juices. By evening, guests pour their own drinks at the lobby honesty bar.
the room is furnished with a cornucopia of some of Risom's most iconic pieces including the U-151 sofa; T710 side table; and the small T539 magazine table.
How it began
The collection began over twenty years ago, inspired by the general manager's museum-curator grandfather.
