Located just one train stop away from Kobenhavn H(Copenhagen Central Station),
Copenhagen Island Hotel is a modern and stylish dog-friendly hotel with
326 rooms. The stunning 4-star hotel sees high occupancy all year
round, and it's no surprise at all, considering how well-located and
pretty the property is. The hotel sits right next to Fisketorvet
Copenhagen
Mall so you don’t have to worry about not being to procure any
essentials, or about having to wander too far for a light snack or good
meal. There’s even a movie theatre should you be up for a late night
show!
Copenhagen Island Hotel has rooms in five different
categories, and most of them offer a floor-to-ceiling-view of the Port
of Copenhagen. There's a
common theme of maritime decorations in the rooms so you might notice
that the headboard resembles a white sail, the
bedside tables look like metallic ship’s masts, and the minibar is made
of grain-patterned Brazilian rosewood(often used in
luxurious yachts).
I
stayed in the very spacious and bright Executive Double room(21 sqm with a double bed of 160 cm or 2 beds of 80 cm), which had a
private balcony opening up to a lovely view of the harbour. Room
amenities include bathrobes,
slippers, and skincare products by the Danish luxury brand Karmameju.
I’ll highly recommend that you get a room with a waterfront view, as I
did, so you can sip a cup of hot tea while enjoying the view and soft
breeze. The tranquility will definitely put a smile on your face. It was
so so peaceful, that it was actually refreshing and rejuvenating.
I liked that they gave Snuffles a little welcome treat!
Somehow, Snuffles knew that the bed must be really comfortable so he was asking to be carried up soon after we settled in.
Very happy boy on a very comfortable bed!
Restaurant : The Harbour
The hotel has a great restaurant with a fully stocked bar that allows
diners to admire the spectacular water view through the large glass
windows. Needless to say, having breakfast here means you will be dining
in a room with natural light streaming in. Talk about breakfast with a
view!
You’ll be 100% spoilt for choice when it comes
to the breakfast selection— there’s just too much to eat! From cheeses and cold cuts,
to eggs and pancakes, there’s definitely something for everybody. I was
most intrigued by the drinks dispenser which employs a touchscreen
technology. I scored a corner table and thoroughly enjoyed the view, and
my breakfast.
State-of-the-art Fitness Centre
Copenhagen
Island Hotel boasts a state-of-the-art fitness centre on the sixth
floor. Guests can keep fit, all while being pampered with a brilliant
view. The fitness centre is equipped with weights and good
training apparatus. There's also a sauna for those looking to refresh
themselves after a long flight or journey here.
Business Centre
On
the first floor above the lobby area is a Business Centre with 6
computers available 24/7. The business centre is perfect for those who
did not bring along their laptops, or require printing of boarding
passes and tickets etc.
If you don't already know, bicycling around
is a way of life in Copenhagen so bicycles are naturally available for
hire at the hotel. There are a
number of exercise routes around the
harbour waterfront and in the local neighbourhood should you like to go
for a nice stroll or quick joy. Small motorboats can be hired from
Copenhagen Boat Rent on the quayside, so you can explore the harbour and
canals from the water too!
There are 3 public swimming baths in
Copenhagen’s harbour, with one right
outside the Copenhagen Island hotel. These public swimming facilities
are all manned by qualified lifeguards throughout the summer months, so
get ready to take a nice dip in pristine waters while being welcomed by
pretty sights.
