Copenhagen Strand

Copenhagen


In a converted 19th-century warehouse, the appealing Strand overlooks Copenhagen Harbour. Rooms are classically styled in wood, brass and shades of greys and blue. Standard rooms are smallish but cosy; the executive rooms and suites come with water views. Bike rental available.
