We would NOT recommend this hotel! We booked a double room and were given a tiny room on the 5th floor with an old dingy green carpet. There was barely any space between the wall and the bed in what felt like a closet space not a decent hotel room. The bath was clean but again very small. Breakfast buffet... More

This hotel is a wolf in sheep's clothing: a 2-star hotel in a 4-star jacket. Don't be fooled by the professional website. The inside of the hotel is dark, dingy, depressing. When you walk through the corridors and take the tiny (although somewhat vintage-cool) lifts, a sense of weight places itself on your shoulders. There is nothing fresh, or uplifting,... More

This was an ideal hotel for our short stay in Copenhagen. The staff were helpful and mostly the place worked well. Avoid internal rooms; it gets too hot. Coffee machine serves awful hot drinks and these are described as c**p by restaurant staff. Breakfast is outlandishly expensive; best to go to excellent cafe next door at a third of the... More

Upon arrival I was told that the hotel was over booked and I would be placed in at the "Mayfair", for one night till the FKF opened up,They alleged that the other hotel was comparable, But I will get to that later..

Very friendly staff, excellent breakfast, quiet and spacious room and perfect location to explore the city of Kobenhavn... that is all we need for our city trip. Free mini-bar was an extra service. The only point of critique would be that towels were changed on a daily basis. That was against our expectations in this eco-friendly city.

The location is great, close to The Central Station and Nørreport and Strøget just around the corner. Staff in the reception very friendly and helpful.

Thought this place was barely average. Double doors on the bedrooms is weird. Lifts are dated and poor. Decoratively the room was shabby. I was pestered to join the loyalty scheme at reception. There are hundreds of brass plaques at reception for famous music stars -did they really stay at this hotel?! Location is good - just around the corner... More

After staying at the Marriott the previous two nights while visiting me in Copenhagen my mother wanted to find a place both less expensive and closer to the Norreport area. The Hotel Kong Frederik was not only about half the price and right downtown but the hotel itself was incredibly clean and comfortable with friendly staff. It hits a nice... More

We stayed here as part of a British Airways city break. Loved the location which is perfect and central. The rooms are styled well and nice windows and beds.
