In 1787, the building housing this hotel put bread on the table of many Copenhageners. The former grain warehouse was turned into a hotel in 1988, and in terms of its physical plant, it is the most serious rival of 71 Nyhavn, which has a slight edge. Its location is 2 blocks from the Nyhavn Canal, where sailors of yore went for tattoos and prostitutes. Today many rooms with French balconies open onto harbor views. But thousands of tourists have replaced those sailors of yesterday. Huge timber ceiling beams and roof supports evoke the warehouse; otherwise, the hotel is completely modern, carrying a four-star rating from the government. No two of the midsize rooms here are identical, but each comes with rustic wooden beams and tasteful Danish furniture from classic designers. All the furniture is custom-made of solid teak. The split-level sixth-floor suites -- actually studios -- are the best accommodations, with large sitting areas and upgraded furnishing. On-site is the SALT Restaurant & Bar.
