Perfect Hotel
Fantastic hotel filled with charm and history! Very pleasant staff, that make every effort to be helpful and polite. Great breakfast with quality products and very nice surroundings. Location is perfect in what I feel is the best area of Århus for shopping, eating and a night out.
Top tip: Park cheap (for Århus) at NAVITAS underground parking.

The hotel was beautiful, old world style. The staff were all wonderfully helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. Loved the unique old elevator. The bathroom in the room needed deep cleaning and updates. The tub water was either scalding or very warm, no other temperatures. The tile grout was mildewed. The drain between 2 sinks flooded the room if too much water was run (once from washing my face and once from trying to cool bathtub water) with a cup. The bed was comfortable. Lighting very difficult to figure out. We turned off the switch and they would turn off and then back on. We sent out clothes with the laundry (expensive like all of Scandinavia) and they did not come back until 8;30 at night. We loved the people, but not our best hotel stay.

Disappointing again!
This amazing hotel in Århus which I have used for 30y still struggling with optimal set up after new ownership has taken over! For the second time in 2025 offering me a 1/2 bottle wine when the VIP/Gold have 1 bottle on the program, the rest/closed on a Wednesday (had business meeting and lucky to find chairs/table), could not enter the hotel after midnight and had to get support from the casino next door to enter. Finally, my business partner forgot his cap and today I have spend 35 EUR (they charge!) for shipping it from Århus to Herning! On the positive side the breakfast is definitely worth going for.

Wonderful, classically designed hotel with the oldest working elevator in northern Europe. I felt like I was in a Bond movie. Breakfast served in the Queen’s Garden is exceptional, underneath a beautiful chandelier. Excellent touches with homemade jams, nut butters, and a variety of juices. Extremely comfortable bed. The hotel is in the center close to everything. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful.
