Frommer's Review
The dream of this place never quite came true. Founded in 1854, the hotel was meant to be the gathering place for the bohemian and literati set. These days, commercial clients, a scattering of tourists, and even tour groups dominate the client list, but the main lounge still evokes an upper-crust living room in an English country house, with its traditional furnishings and even a chess table.
Many of the bedrooms open onto two covered interior courtyards, adding a little glamour to the joint. Ask for one of the bedrooms that open onto a courtyard, as they are the brightest during the day and the most tranquil in the evening. Bedrooms are tastefully furnished in a modern style, and most of them are either small or midsize. The tiled bathrooms, though modest in size, are well equipped and maintained, each with a tub/shower combo. Another feature of the hotel is an outdoor terrace on the sixth floor where you can order drinks in the summer. Some bright young chefs operate the hotel's restaurant, lying next door. The Gendarmen offers a seasonally adjusted menu that respects traditional Danish recipes but prepares many of them with a lighter touch. Check it out.
