Copenhagen Strand ReviewThis hotel is rated only three stars by the government, but, frankly, we think that only its lack of a restaurant keeps it from four-star status. In 2002, two 18th-century brick-and-timber warehouses were recycled into this hotel only a 5-minute walk from Nyhavn. Because of its harborfront location, the snug lobby has a maritime theme with pictures of ships on the walls and chic brown leather sofas. Many of the old-fashioned architectural details of the building have been retained, and there is a certain nautical gloss here, with varnished wood, brass hardware, and marine artifacts. We like to drop in at the bar in the lobby, where the reception staff works double time mixing drinks and pulling pints. The medium-size rooms are cozy but predictably less richly decorated than the lobby. For the most part, they are small, cozy, and both tastefully and comfortably furnished with Danish modern. The best accommodations, if you can afford them, are 16 double executive rooms, plus junior suites and deluxe suites, each of which open onto a panoramic view of the harbor.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
