The take
The Take
The Vibe
1 Hotel Copenhagen marries the tactile authority of a near-century-old modernist building with a quietly deliberate contemporary design language. The hotel reads as a restoration rather than a reinvention: original materials and structural bones are acknowledged and rethought, and finishes lean into raw wood and concrete rather than gilded decadence. Sustainability is woven into the aesthetic, so the rooms and public spaces feel restrained, natural and thoughtfully appointed rather than ornamental. The result is a historic, design-forward atmosphere that privileges material honesty and environmental intent, offering a sophisticated but unostentatious place to stay in the Latin Quarter.
Best For
This property positions itself for travelers who care about design, context and environmental responsibility. It is well suited to romantic getaways and business trips as well as guests seeking wellness-oriented stays — occasions already associated with the hotel — because the overhaul emphasizes low-impact materials, energy-efficient systems and a restrained luxury that pairs neatly with Copenhagen’s civic focus on sustainability. Located on Krystalgade in the Latin Quarter, the hotel’s scale and design sensibility make it a thoughtful base for exploring the city or for work-focused visits that value quiet, considered surroundings.
Stay Tips
Book with the hotel’s recent transformation in mind: the 2025 conversion into the 1 Hotels portfolio centers sustainability and material reuse, so request room details if you have preferences for particular finishes or layouts. With 282 rooms and suites, availability can vary by season; reserve early for peak travel dates. If you’re traveling for wellness or sustainability-minded reasons, ask the reservations team about the property’s operational initiatives and any wellness programming or room features that align with those priorities. Keep expectations modest about overt opulence—the hotel’s appeal is its restrained, material-driven design.

How It Compares
Against 25hours Hotel Indre By, 1 Hotel Copenhagen is the more polished choice for travelers who care about recognition and a higher-touch feel. 25hours is the easier casual cross-shop for a lower-pressure city break; choose 1 Hotel when the trip needs to feel more composed and harder availability is acceptable.
Hotel SP34 - By Brøchner Hotels, Hotel Bella Grande, Hotel Alexandra are better comparisons if value, personality, or easier planning matters more than awards. 1 Hotel Copenhagen is the splurge-leaning pick in this set; the others make more sense when the room is mainly a base between restaurants, shops, museums.
Copenhagen Jazz Festival is not a like-for-like hotel alternative, but it changes the booking calculus if your trip overlaps with major event demand. For those dates, prioritize confirmed availability over brand preference and keep 25hours Hotel Indre By or another central fallback ready.
