A Refined Stay in the Heart of Copenhagen
Located in the historic centre of Copenhagen, just behind the iconic Nyhavn Canal, Hotel Sanders places guests within easy reach of the city’s cultural landmarks. A short stroll leads to Amalienborg Palace, Royal Danish Theatre, Christiansborg Palace, and the Royal Danish Opera, while the surrounding cobbled streets are lined with exceptional dining, galleries, museums, and world-class shopping.
Individually Designed Rooms
The hotel features 54 luxurious rooms and suites, each uniquely styled to create a distinct sense of place. From the intimate Single Coupé rooms—evoking the charm of vintage train cabins—to the expansive Sanders Apartments with separate living areas and open fireplaces, every accommodation is thoughtfully designed to suit different styles of travel.
A Home-Like Atmosphere
At the heart of the hotel, Sanders Kitchen offers a warm and inviting setting reminiscent of a private home. It is a space to gather, relax, and enjoy good company over thoughtfully prepared dishes and fine wines.
