I spent three night at Axel Hotel Guldsmeden based on reviews on this site. I'm also someone who, many years ago, lived in Copenhagen for several years and have visited the city regularly three times a year for extended periods of time (and have frequented more than 25 hotels in the process). This was my first time at this particular... more

very nice ambience and my sky room was clean and smart...quite liked climbing up into bed...service and food were both very good. so long as you don't stay out too late and make sure you walk to and from it carefully it is good value. more

I stayed here for three nights last week. This was my second visit here, and it distinctly feels as if the area has gone downhill. The hotel is still quite nice, with a Bali-esque styling, but once outside the (locked) hotel doors, as a single male you are propositioned by prostitutes on every street corner, both in the evenings and... more

Thought I'd quickly put in my 2 cents. After reading some negative reviews about the location , but very positive reviews about the rooms and it's unique style, I was of course unsure of whether I should book it or not. Being a regular business traveller for short stays here in Europe, the majority of decent hotels are simply a... more

We picked this hotel because of its boutique character, location ( 2 blocks from Copenhagen's central train station) and good price. The hotel itself is well appointed, but having to be buzzed into the lobby at all hours should have given us a clue about the neighborhood. We're no prudes, but we just wanted a good night's rest without the... more

The hotel is basically a modern European hotel with a Balinese styling accent, making it a refreshing change from the ordinary. The breakfast was outstanding, with lovely organic breads and yoghurts, etc. There seemed to be a general air of warmth and tranquility around the lobby every time we entered. The rooms were comfortable and very clean, if a little... more

This hotel, having a pleasant interior, is in a difficult neighborhood. The first night we were there 4 drunks were in a doorway across the street, getting progressively louder. It was hot but we closed the windows, still incredibly noisy. They quietened down about 5 a.m. We talked to management that morning and were told "That's just Copenhagen; it's not... more

My stay in the Guldsmeden could have been great but it was not. The hotel concept is really nice: organic and respectfull of the environment. The hotel design is nice but has nothing to do with the Danish design scene. TH elobby is very small and if you get a room close to it (and there are plent of them... more

I was initially slightly hesitant to book this hotel after reading some negative reviews on here but having explored their website and looking at the photos etc, I decided to go ahead anyway as I wanted to be near DGI Byen (5 minutes away). I was not disappointed. If you have travelled across Europe, you'd know that hotel rooms are... more
