Hotel Phoenix Copenhagen

Hotel Phoenix Copenhagen is a classic mid-range hotel at Bredgade 37 in the Frederiksstaden district of Copenhagen, Denmark. Bredgade is known as the city's antiques street, lined with galleries, auction houses and dealers, and it runs between Kongens Nytorv and the Marble Church, so the hotel sits in one of the most elegant and historic parts of the capital. Nyhavn is a short walk to the south, Amalienborg Palace with its changing of the guard is a few minutes to the north-east, and the Designmuseum Danmark and the Kastellet fortress are within easy walking distance. The nearest metro stations at Kongens Nytorv and Marmorkirken give access to the wider city and onward to Copenhagen Airport. The hotel has a traditional character, with formal, comfortable public areas and a lobby bar that is popular for an evening drink after sightseeing. Rooms are offered as Standard Rooms, Superior Rooms and Junior Suites, with classic furnishings and decor in keeping with the neighbourhood. Indicative double-room rates run from about DKK 1,300 to 2,700 per night depending on season. Amenities include the bar, wifi, a concierge and a lift. There is no restaurant, pool or spa on the premises, so guests usually take breakfast at the hotel if offered and dine at the many restaurants and cafes found on the surrounding streets in Frederiksstaden and Nyhavn. Service is polished but unfussy, with a concierge able to advise on antiques shopping, museum visits and restaurant bookings. The property is well suited to couples, culturally minded travellers and business visitors who want a central yet quieter address than the busier tourist streets, and its position makes much of the old city walkable. Visitors who enjoy browsing galleries and design shops will find the location particularly convenient. Visitors arriving in autumn or winter will find the hotel's lobby bar a welcome place to warm up, and the nearby museums make the area rewarding in any weather.
