Villa Rosa

Aalborg


Book early to snare one of only six theatrically decorated rooms over three floors (no lift) at this late-19th-century villa. The three small self-contained apartments are the standout bargain – the English Room is especially lovely. Three rooms share a large bathroom and guest kitchen. It's the town's most interesting option, so the reasonable rates and central location are added bonuses.
