The hotel’s main advantage is its location, but it is certainly not the only hotel in the area with a good location. There are plenty of other options nearby, so the location alone is not enough to make this hotel stand out.

What disappointed me most was the complete lack of flexibility regarding check-in and check-out. Check-out is strictly at 11:00 AM, while check-in is only at 2:00 PM. There is already a three-hour window to prepare the rooms, which seems more than sufficient, yet they were not willing to offer any flexibility at all. There was also no late check-out option available, which I consider a major downside. This kind of rigid policy can really limit your plans, especially when travelling. The breakfast was also very standard and extremely crowded. In the end, we preferred to have breakfast somewhere else rather than at the hotel. Overall, I am deducting points mainly because of how unhelpful they were regarding early check-in and late check-out. Apart from the location, there was nothing particularly special or memorable about the hotel that would make me choose it over the many other hotels in the same area. I would not stay here again.

Didn’t have any problems with the Hotel. All in all a positive experience !

Nice location, great facilities, good breakfast. You could opt-out of room cleaning and instead receive a voucher for the bar or bike rental.

Perhaps there was something special going on in Copenhagen at that time; not only Absalon but other hotels were also very expensive. 350 € per night is quite steep, even for a good hotel.
