Rising eighteen storeys beside Sankt Jørgens Sø, this bustling modernist hub gathers business travelers and lake runners in an airy open lobby.
What it’s good at
Listed
An eighteen-storey 1971 modernist tower by Jørgen Buschardt featuring minimalist Scandinavian interiors.
Listed
Operating continuously since 1971 beside Sankt Jørgens Sø as a major urban gathering venue.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Set right beside the Tycho Brahe Planetarium, the hotel sits a five-minute stroll from Vesterport Station and Tivoli Gardens.
The rooms
Minimalist interiors feature clean lines, light wood accents, and muted palettes, with upper floors framing broad views over the lakes.
The sauna and gym
A traditional wood-slatted sauna offers post-workout warmth beside a 24-hour gym equipped with cardio gear and free weights.
Dogs stay too.
Restaurant
The Grill
The dining room serves an organic breakfast buffet before switching to rotisserie chicken and dry-aged Danish steaks by evening.
At the table
Stepped timber seating and bright fabric lampshades shape the open lobby lounge for afternoon coffee or evening drinks.
How it began
The tower opened in 1971 as the Sheraton Copenhagen, marking an ambitious arrival of modernist high-rise hospitality on the city skyline.
