Copenhagen – More Hotels, Refurbishments And Take Overs

The Danish capital is increasing hotel capacity with 2,247 new rooms being opened in the near future, resulting in a total capacity of close to 25,000 rooms. Here are some of the bigger developments:

New hotel openings

The Arp-Hansen Hotel Group will open their first hostel in the center of the city in the summer of 2017. The hostel will have 1,000 beds and 280 rooms, all with shower and toilet.  This is to fulfil a demand for conferences with large groups of people, who wish to stay cheap and central.

Nimb Hotel, in the amusement park Tivoli Gardens, was recently awarded the prestigious award “Hotel of the year by Small Luxury Hotels of the World”. In late 2017, the hotel is to expand with 20 new luxury suites, plus a roof terrace with heated pool, restaurant and bar.

The meetings and conference venue, Charlottehaven, is constructing a new 16-storey tower, which will contain 37 apartments. Each apartment will be nearly twice the size of a traditional hotel room, and will include both kitchen and bath facilities. The hotel will have its own reception and lounge area. The new concept hotel is expected to be ready in late 2017.

The hotel expansions will continue in 2019, where the Danish low budget hotel chain CABINN will increase its extensive portfolio with a new hotel right next door to the Tivoli Congress Center and around the corner from the Copenhagen main train station. This property will have around 1,250 rooms of which 1,000 will be divided in CABINN’s standard range of hotel rooms, and the remaining 250 rooms will be established as CABINN Apartments with kitchenette, suitable for longer stays.

In the opposite side of the city, CABINN Metro is adding 530 hotel apartments with homely facilities, to its existing 710 rooms, opening late 2017. Hotel CABINN Metro is located a few minutes from Copenhagen airport and Scandinavia’s largest convention center,Bella Center.

Hotel takeovers and refurbishments

In October 2018, Scandic Hotels is to take over one of the city’s most popular hotels and conference centers – the Radisson Blu Falconer hotel. The hotel is located in the district of Frederiksberg in central Copenhagen, and the conference centre accommodates events for up to 3,000 people. In connection with the takeover, the hotel will go through an extensive renovation and extend to offer 300 rooms, and change name to Scandic Falconer.

Scandic Front Hotel, located right on the inner harbour has just modernized all its 132 rooms, where Scandinavian design tradition blending luxury with comfort is creating an even cosier, quieter and more homely experience.

Hotel Skt. Annae is a newly renovated 4-star hotel, previously known as Hotel Neptun, recently experienced a total makeover. However, the atmosphere of the hotel is affectionate preserved, so guests still can sense the hotels inherent history, in the heart of Copenhagen.
