The hotel is only a 4-minute walk from Copenhagen Central Station, which makes it incredibly convenient for tourists. Plus, the stay includes a breakfast buffet—a big bonus! Another big attraction for me is that the Absalon Hotel is family-owned—not part of a chain—which adds a unique, personal touch.

Pros (+) The staff really, really tries to please you. Bike rental is approximately $20/day and bikes are all well serviced and cared for. Breakfast is very generous.
Cons (-) The smell of house cleaning products didn't work for us. The closed windows did cut street noise very well but then there was a lack of fresh air. Bathtub (small) could use a grab bar. location is in transition. Sex shops across the street but a short walk away are great restaurants and design shopping.

The hotel's location is also great if you want to go to Tivoli Garden and enjoy the downtown restaurants or walk around on the pedestrian streets. Ov...
Cons (-) There were only two, small things that I didn't like about the hotel; the lack of soap for the shower and their system of storing bags should you arrive before your room is available. Usually, hotels will provide a hard bar of soap you can take into the shower or else provide a dispenser for a body wash liquid in the shower. In this case, there was no hard soap available and the body wash liquid d...
