Schackenborg Slotskro

After checking in here, you can always tell the folks back home that you were the guests of the Danish royal family. This venerable, thick-walled 17th-century structure is set on the historic, picture-perfect main street of the hamlet Møgeltønder. Owned but not operated by the queen's son, Prince Joachim, the Royal-licensed coaching inn takes great pains to project an aura of aristocratic well-being and glamour, despite occasional streamlined, modern touches in an otherwise old-world setting. Princess Alexandra, now divorced from the prince, personally decorated each of the bedrooms. Each room is named after one of the palaces or fortresses of Denmark and contains a condensed history of its namesake. Both the furnishings and the bathrooms are tidily kept. Expect a relatively luxurious Danish manor house at its most intimate. Even if you opt not to spend the night, consider a meal in the formal dining room, which, frankly, is a lot more appealing than the hotel.
