I was quite happy with my reservation, it seemed as if I had found a quaint little hotel in the heart of Copenhague!
My first impressions seemed to confirm that, the building is an old warehouses that has been renovated with taste. That's definitely something different than the usual big chain hotel!
The reception is quite nice, the staff really friendly. I had my first doubt just after the check in, when explained how to reach my room (305): "take left, go down the stair, the lift is at your left"! Stairs? Not something really trolley-friendly!! When I stay at a hotel charging 200+€/night, the staff usually proposes to take care of my luggage. I always politely decline. Here, they didn't even propose it, no big deal, I'm not senile, just a small crack in the overall picture.
I really gasped when I saw the room! It's so tiny!! There is just enough space to barely fit the bed!! Otho it was pretty well decorated and the apparent timbers are definitely giving a charming look!
It's just that it is so small! Oh and I forgot, what a view!! I think you'd have to pay extra if you want to see the water. In my case I was just lucky enough to face the wall of the second building in the back!
I gasped a second time when I saw the bathroom!! What an exploit!! I wouldn't have imagined it was possible to fit a WC, a shower and a sink within so few sq meters!! The trick? The shower doesn't have a receptor, the water is directly hitting the ground! That could definitely be something design and fashionable! That was not really the goal here and it simply means the bathroom is completely flooded when you try to use it!!
The bed was quite good but the sound insulation was a real pity! If someone is talking in the corridor, it will sound as if he is sitting close to your bed...and I'm not even mentioning door slamming!
I'm really wondering how this hotel could have reached the 4 stars level!! From other comments read on the web, it looks like the rooms in the second buildings are more decent (and also more expensive). That's probably how!
The restaurant downstairs is on the expensive side as well and was rather empty! That's partly why I have also skipped the breakfast (+170DKK)
On the plus side, wireless Internet was available and free!! Enjoy it as long as it last, the infrastructure is ready to make it a pay per use service!
The location was obviously perfect, no bad surprise on that front! Copenhague is not so big and everything is at walking distance from the hotel!
Am I going to stay again? Probably not!! The Admiral hotel, 2 minutes from there, looks like a much better alternative!!
