Skovshoved Hotel

Forty years ago (almost) some copehagen friends of ours was raving about this hotel. Finally we got around to staying there on a recent biking soujourn to Zealand. Close to Copenhagen and close to Louisiana (not the state, but a magnificent modern art museum) near the hamlet of Humlebæk, it was a perfect staring point for a 10 days trip covering the northern part of the lovely island of Zealand. Terrific, old style room with a wonderul view of Øresund and southern Sweden, quite spacious with a small balcony for watching the sunrise. We had a dinner, room, breakfast deal and the meals were really excellent, a great emphasis on the customer.

A gem tucked away in a Northern suburb. Smaller, family owned, family run hotel. Quiet, quaint, soulful and very well decorated. Fantastic Eastward ocean view. Walking distance to the sea. Great beds. Personalized service. Free parking.

My husband and I went to the hotel for a gourmet stay. The hotel is excellent maintained with respect to the original style. The stay included a superior room, which really was superior. Spacey and with big windows with view over Øresund (the sea). The waiter in the restaurant was very serviceminded and experienced. He created a wine menu which was perfectly adapted to the dishes on the four course meny. The food was perfect - with plentiful dishes. The breakfast was fresh and homemade. A perfect stay, we can higly recommend this cozy hotel.

Beautiful building on a side street with the Øresund shore at a distance (crossing one small and one major road). The balconies add a lot to the spartan rooms and are great for spending parts of the day. Free parking next to the hotel. The hotel boasts a lot of rewards, however when you look closely, at the diplomas, they are dated back to around 2013. That is in line with the feeling that the hotel is somewhat run-down and would benefit from some freshening up. There are several restaurants in the building - the drawback being a lot of noise late at night from the tables outside. On the whole, the hotel is overpriced. All the tiny extra charges for bathrobes, twin beds etc are annoying and take away any sense of “hospitality”. Conclusion: glad we stayed here, but once is enough.
