Copenhagen, Denmark

Hotel Sanders

1 / 10

The takeaway

Choose Sanders for a theatrical, townhouse-scale Copenhagen stay where a heated courtyard and characterful interiors soften a day in historic Indre By.

About the hotel

Behind the Royal Danish Theatre, Hotel Sanders occupies a historic-centre address on a quiet cobbled street, with Copenhagen’s restaurants, galleries and museums close by. Its rooms are individually styled, and the hotel’s theatrical, residential character carries into shared spaces including Sanders Kitchen and a covered, heated courtyard. The feel is more intimate townhouse than large city hotel: a compact base for exploring Indre By, with places to eat and linger indoors when the city outside is less inviting.

Choose it if

You want to explore the historic centre on foot, with the hotel on a cobbled street behind the Royal Danish Theatre.
You value a distinctive, individually styled interior and a covered, heated courtyard more than the scale of a large hotel.

Skip it if

You need on-site parking; the hotel states that parking is not available.
