Copenhagen boasts a variety of accomodations ranging from the simplest of hostels to apartments and five-star deluxe hotels of international standard. Most of the finer hotels in Greater Copenhagen are members of Horesta's international star award scheme. Besides, many of the hotels has been awarded with The Green Key, which demands adherence to no less than 55 health and environmental requirements. This means the hotel strives to protect the environment by using environmentally sound cleaning products and detergents.
City Center
In the centre of Copenhagen there are three important hotel streets: Vester Voldgade, Helgolandsgade and Colbjørnsensgade. Here, one hotel façade follows the next along the street. Accommodation on Vester Voldgade places the guest right in the middle of it all, between Strøget, Tivoli and Rådhuspladsen (the Town Hall Square), in an area of a multitude of shopping, leisure facilities and cinemas. Here you will find hotels like Hotel Danmark, the four-star Hotel Kong Frederik and the Palace Hotel.
Helgolandsgade and Colbjørnsensgade are both side streets off Istedgade, a few minutes walk from Copenhagen Central Station. References to Istedgade no longer imply the gutter-area that was once associated with it; Istedgade has been seriously cleaned up in recent years and, actually, a great deal of fine and highly respectable hotels are situated in this area. On Helgolandsgade, also called the hotel street, you will find hotels such as the Saga Hotel, The Mayfair Hotel, Copenhagen Triton, Top Hotel Hebron and Hotel Absalon. In Coldbjørnsensgade you’ll find Hotel Selandia, Tiffany – a Sweet Hotel, Copenhagen Star Hotel, Hotel Ansgar, Hotel Cosmopole, Hotel Du Nord and Excelsior Hotel.
Many of the city’s central hotels are located on Vesterbrogade which runs further onto Frederiksberg and past the Zoo. The Savoy Hotel, Webers Hotel, Copenhagen Crown Hotel and Grand Hotel punctuate this long street. By Vesterport you will find the big Hotel Imperial and Copenhagen Richmond.
The area around Kongens Nytorv and Nyhavn also has its fair share of places to stay; among them are the very well-known hotels D’Angleterre, Hotel Opera and the four-star 71 Nyhavn Hotel.
If you are looking for inexpensive accommodation try one of the central hostels. City Public Hostel Vesterbro is only open in the summer, whilst Sleep-in Heaven and Copenhagen Sleep-in maintain year-round offers for backpackers.
The most important hotel chains in Copenhagen include the Arp-Hansen Hotel Group, Best Western Hotels Denmark, First Hotels, Radisson SAS, Copenhagen Centre Hotels and Plaza Hotel Group. Radisson SAS has four luxury hotels in Copenhagen at various central locations. All fall into the deluxe category; the five-star Royal Hotel Copenhagen on Amager is especially famous for its exclusive casino. Arp-Hansen Hotel Group owns fine and central hotels such as Hotel Astoria, Grand Hotel, Hotel Christian IV, 71 Nyhavn Hotel and Phoenix Copenhagen.Several other new hotels are available, for instance a Hilton Airport Hotel and a five-star Marriott by the harbor front.
Suburbs
The Copenhagen suburbs also offer a rich variety of hotels, motels and hostels. Many of these lie in green surroundings by a forest or beach. Plenty of the hotels in northern Copenhagen are close to attractions such as the Deer Park, Bakken, Denmark's Aquarium and Bellevue Beach, whilst most of the southern hotels by Køge Bay are close to the coastline.
