First Hotel Grand

Frommer's Review

In those halcyon Belle Epoque days of 1897, this grand hotel opened near the rail depot to greet arriving passengers from Copenhagen. At that time it was the grandest hotel in town, losing that position in 1915 to the Clarion Hotel Plaza , which is still the market leader today. But the Grand holds its own and is our second choice for Odense, rising four floors in a brick-built structure shaped like a triangle and studded with old-fashioned dormers. The ground-floor reception will provide you with an ornately shaped brass key for your bedroom door. Bedrooms, in the 19th-century tradition, are large, and each is comfortably furnished, with an adjoining good-size bathroom with tiles and a tub/shower combination. On-site are a relatively good restaurant serving Danish regional food and a cozy bar that makes an ideal place for a rendezvous.
