Hotel Siemsens Gaard

Bornholm


Although the straightforward rooms at this prime-position harbourfront hotel are a little dowdy, they are comfortable and generally well equipped (some doubles have kitchenettes). Request a room in the old wing, a beautiful half-timbered building that dates from the mid-17th century.
