Great location. Great breakfast. Friendly front desk staff. Clean comfortable bed.
Rooms old and outdated. Stains on walls and carpets. Smells like cigarette smoke. Shower needs a door. Overhead sprayer broken on shower. Stone floor impossible to clean, holds dirt.
Place is walking distances to all tourists spot that you need to visit.Breakfast is very good a lot of choices.Transportation is accessible.Staff is friendly and approachable.

Scandic Front was in a great location for walking to most places but had the tranquility of being at the waters edge. The breakfast options were plentiful and delicious. The room was a good size with a balcony but was very basic and could do with some modernising.
Great location, very close to metro station and Nyhavan. Plenty of places to eat out.
Hotel staff was friendly and professional. Breakfast has plenty of option too. There is an area to chill out in the lobby and secure luggage storage (with a small fee)
Room was very spacious, however, it was next to the staff storage who start banging around 7am every day which was impossible to get a proper sleep after that time.
Staff was helpful and efficient. Breakfast had gluten-free options, which is why we booked it. Didn't appreciate being awakened every morning at 7:15 for the street repair. The hotel couldn't control that, but a warning would have been nice.
Hotel tired and needing refurbishment.
Beds are terrible-just mattress toppers on old Divans-very soft.
There is no AC as advertised and rooms are very hot.
No bar as advertised.
Overall does not warrant a 4-5 start rating although well located.
Great location. Rooms were fairly quiet, and the blockout blinds fairly effective although the bright sunrise one day did light up the room. Amazing location, a 5 minute walk from Nyhavn and another 5 minutes to a major train line. I would happily stay here again. Only one qualm, the rooms were a little warm for my liking even with the heating turned off. Had to leave the window open at night time and let in some cool air. (Nb this was in march when it was zero overnight). Breakfast selection was good too.
The only good experience was the booking through Expedia. The hotel is located really well near the touristy spots and is also in a nice neighbourhood and in a quiet area. But that's about it.
They don't have any service what so ever. They don't have a phone in the room. They don't even provide dental or shaving kits. There was noise from the road and also work outside the door all the time. We complained about heating and the front desk informed someone will be there tomorrow because no one was there when we raised the issue but the "tomorrow" never arrived.
So, if price is not too much of a difference, look for another nearby hotel.
Wonderful stay here. Great helpful staff. Always asking if we needed something without being overwhelming. The location for Copenhagen is amazing. Everything is close by. Parking is very convenient with short walk and charging.
Stayed here for a pre Christmas trip with my son. Hotel is well located, the breakfast is varied and plentiful with options for coeliacs and dairy intolerant. Staff were all very friendly and helpful. Only downsides were lack of any bar or activity in reception meant it lacked atmosphere and didn’t feel very welcoming. And rooms are basic with no cleaning provided unless requested for environmental reasons - I am used to towel and sheet changes only on request but no cleaning at all, not even emptying bins didn’t make sense for the stated environmental reasons. When I asked it if would be possible to have the basics done (beds made, bins emptied, room tidied and vacuumed) daily I was told it was full service or nothing, with the latter feeling excessive so we opted for no service at all!
Our room was not very clean. The bathroom had hair in the sink and on the floor- thank goodness for Lysol wipes! The carpet is very stained. Nice large rooms. Very friendly staff. Easy walking to everything!!
