This is a well positioned hotel which offers excellent service and good facilities. First-class breakfast and a warm, comfortable room. Genuine three stars. We would definitely return. More

This place is literally 3 minutes walk from the main train station, from the airport, takes 12 minutes, runs every 10 minutes, costs DKK 36 or DKK 59 return. The hotel lobby is pleasant enough, rooms are ok, free wifi is good option, I didn't use it so can't really say how good quality was? Breakfast was utter rubbish, bread... More

Istedgade is a street close to Copenhagen Train Station. It's a bit of a shanky place of Copenhagen with mostly sex shops and hotels which succeed each other along the street. But there are also where most hotels are, especially those who are decent prices! The quality varies enormously depending on which hotel you choose to Istedgarde, so here I... More

I don't know whether it was something we did wrong but we ended up in a room that hadn't changed since the 1970s. It was very clean, and quiet. Breakfast was fine, but the atmosphere was very odd - a bit like a British Seaside bed and breakfast where no-one speaks. I doubt I would choose to return until the... More

We stayed here in Jan 2012. Lovely hotel. Friendly welcome from the reception team, and a lovely room on the top floor (I think we had a superior room). Beds were very comfy, we had our own heating controller, hotel was lovely and quiet, we couldn't hear much from next door or out in the corridors. Plenty of hot water... More

Just returned from yet another stay at the Absalon. By coincidence, I got the exact same room as last time, so nothing new there. Still stylish the oldfashioned (good) way and comfortable room, B&O tv, refrigerator, coffee maker etc., bathroom w/ bathtub. But front desk staff was just so helpful and amazing; they really go out of their way to... More

Stayed there for two nights in the beginning of October. First of all, I just want to clarify that is is a Hotel and not a Hostel. The Hostel is actually attached to the hotel. If you turn left once you get off the elevator on your floor, you will come across a single star hotel rating plaque. From then... More

I stayed in a standard single room in this hotel for 2 nights recently. The room is extreamely small and there is not place to keep your luggage. I felt like suffocating in the initial hours after chekin. Then I opened the windows despite cold weather and also went for a walk outside to get rid of the feeling of... More

My stay at Absalon was a very good experience. The rooms are classical, but stylish. The marble bathroom is large, with a bathtub. Staff is really friendly and helpful, and we were able to check in at noon. Price is really a bargain for such a central and nice hotel. I would definitely recommend it, and will return! More

I had a good experience with Absolon hotel, the location is great and it's a short walking distance from Strøget, very nice breakfast, good beds and fine cleaning. Free coffee and hot chocolate in the lobby! More
