The location is not ideal, with rather long walking distances to the metro system and the city centre. The nearby red light district made my two nights a noisy experience. An unannounced DK160 per person per breakfast is a total rippoff, and an unpleasant experience, as the quality was below average. The bathroom was cold and had very little pressure... More

This hotel seems nice at first, but is way too expensive for what you get. The bathrooms are dark and freezing, with really cold stone floors. The showers have little pressure and it takes a long time to find a good temperature with the so-called romantic, but highly unpractical, separated hot and cold handles. The "home-made" shampoo just made my... More

I am sitting in the Axel G (the latter part of the hotel name being not intuitive) writing this on their free wifi. I would rather be spending money in their bar, but it appears there is no one around who can mix any of the -- rather simple -- cocktails loudly advertised in the lobby. And I am not... More

We had the pleasure of staying at the Axel Guldsmeden hotel in Copenhagen. I had been tempted by The Nimb, the Palace, the Grand and the Square, but thankfully chose this lovely quiet hotel off the main street area. All of the above hotels had mass construction outside, so it was a pleasure to enjoy the oasis that was the... More

I stayed here on my first visit to Copenhagen in 2010.Copenhagen is not your type of noisy city, but the Axel makes the stay even more serene. Its close to the Train station and the famous Ripley's and all that makes Copenhagen unique. The best part, despite the small rooms, are their Organic food and soaps. Staff are gentle and... More

Staff at Axel are friendly and accommodating. Loved the organic breakfast and simple, comfortable rooms with gentle soaps and conditioners which are kind for those with sensitive skin. I was unwell and came down for some hot water and they cheerfully, happily served with no complains. A little on the expensive side, rooms per night but I would return for... More

I have wrapped my head around how to write a review here and it has been difficult. It's a different stay in a positive way and you will have to go yourself to experience it. Thanks Axel, we will recommend you to our friends and stay at other Guldsmeden hotels if possible.

A very nice new decorated Bali Feel hotel. It's not five star grand hotel. But it will surprise u with this price. I highly recommend this to u. The organic food resturant is nice. Although I only tried the breakfast. The viscous organic peanut butter taste very good. U can have the feeling of small but simple and good. Walking... More

We stayed here for two nights in a small double room, #501. It was fine. Bathroom was spacious. Bed was comfortable and we had an interior view of the courtyard (which was no big deal in April). The Axel is very close to the train station in a safe area. Easy connections to busses, too. We did not eat the... More

Dear Cincy2, When reading your review, we took a look at your other reviews of Copenhagen – and we have a difficult time making any sense of it… Were you in Denmark for over a month? Or were you in Denmark twice in the course if a month? And why did you choose the Axel immediately after a supposedly outstanding... More
