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
