Best Luxury Hotels in Denmark
The southernmost country in Scandinavia is a land of fairy tales, cutting edge design and colourful marinal history. Officially a kingdom, this was the birthplace of Hans Christian Andersen and LEGO Tourists will find the country to be remarkably clean (Copenhagen’s harbour is even suitable for swimming) with excellent green credentials, alongside a culture of respect, open-mindedness and tolerance. Quaint villages, safe cities, huge forests and unspoilt beaches found on the Danish Riviera make this a diverse and often surprising place to holiday. From medi-spas to boutique design hotels and huge historic buildings, these are the places we love to stay when visiting Denmark

Hotel Sanders
(5 stars)Sanders is the place to stay in Copenhagen – the latest addition to the city’s hotel scene, a unique property in the capital. The design, style and ambience are at once classic and elegant yet also hip and highly individual. Sanders epitomises the current energy and creativity in Copenhagen. The hotel has been created with exceptional refinement and timeless elegance yet has a personality and style that’s very much of the moment. Sanders is in the centre of historic Copenhagen, a stone’s throw from the Royal Danish Theatre, where the hotel’s founder and design visionary Alexander Kølpin used to perform the Principal ‘danseur’ in the Danish Royal Ballet. A such this hotel has been a very personal project for Kølpin, reflecting his love of the arts and travel (and also taking his nickname, Sanders!)

Hotel SP34
(4 stars)A fine boutique hotel centrally located in Copenhagen’s Latin Quarter, SP34 brings together in a happy marriage mid-century Danish design elements and modern furniture. Constructed from three townhouses, it is both, stylish and a little bit boho with high ceilings, real wood floors and full height bookshelves crammed with arty books, little curios and objets d’art and houseplants. Benefitting from plenty of natural light, rooms are typically Nordic in design and feel offering a comfortable stay. There are three lively restaurants offering everything from open sandwiches to the best burger in town. The music nights and poetry readings add to the arty vibe of this friendly hotel. Guests can also enjoy a fitness room or a movie in the 25-seat cinema.
