Very convinient location. Very helpful staff. Rooms somewhat small and a little worn out but fine for a few nights. Breakfast buffet was a little dull, perhaps some hot food such as scrambled eggs and sausages should be added.

I stayed at the absalon hotel for one night and would never stay here again. There were a few positives, but I'll leave those food later. First, the room was dirty, containing stained rugs, a stained seat and I didnt even check under the blankets to see whats was there. The room also smelled like a mix of mildew and... More

Thank you for taking the time to write a review. I am sorry that you did not have a good nights sleep and like to apologize. I hope you did inform my Front Office Staff. The rooms on the ground floor facing the street can be quite noisy especially if the window is open. We have some quiet rooms facing... More

This hotel is well placed for a short stay. Very close to the station, and that is directly in from the airport. As you come up from the platform you turn left on the station concourse down the steps and cross the road turning right and then first left and it is about 300 yds on the left easily spotted....

Thank you for writing a review. I am sorry about the drink offer offending you. It is not meant as a bribe but only to encourage our guests to write a review. We do not get very many Trip Advisor reviews, and this is unfortunate as many international travelers use this media in the planning process of a trip. We... More

We arrived and found out that we prebooked a room without own bathroom. Went down to the lobby, and even though the hotel was packed the woman in the reception upgraded our room for a small amount. The standard of the rooms are ok, not to bad for a low budget. The staff are very kind and helpful and the... More

we stayed 7 nights in Absalon city hotel. It was great hotel to stay with a small child. Location is great just off the central railway station and close to nice cafes and city center. I would recommend this hotel to my friends. The breakfast seemed to be a bit pricey though.
