In Old Skagen we have stayed many, many times and love the atmosphere here and it's only a short cardrive to Skagen or you can rent a bicycle. A short walk to the sanddunes and the same to the sea where you can see the sun setting. The hotel is old but they renovated the place not many years ago.... More

We stayed at the Ruths hotel in Skagen for one night in May. The place was busy, we enjoyed our time so much we wanted to add another night but the rooms were sold out. This place was recommended to us from our danish friends and we thoroughly enjoyed it. There are 2 restaurants to choose from. We originally booked... More

We used to come to Ruths hotel every year. This summer we found the quality of service and of the rooms to have detoriated. While we earlier years felt very welcome, we now found that the quality of the rooms, the common areas and the breakfast buffet was reduced. The attention of the reception staff seemed to be directed towards... More

It is just so relaxing to stay at Ruth’s hotel in Skagen. The service is simply unique and the staff extremely friendly. You will meet a world class receptionist when checking in and be given a tour of the hotel. The breakfast is great. After a fantastic meal in the gourmet restaurant I recommend to relax by the fireplace with... More

Hotels in Denmark can be average. Certainly expensive, and often with small rooms and less than friendly service. Ruth's is certainly different. We were only staying one night, so can't comment on the restaurant (apart from Breakfast). The room we had was great. A good size, with a decent bathroom and small balcony. High class AV equipment from B&O made... More

I wouldn't go back. Some pretty basic deficiencies in this five star hotel. eg no lift to room and no warning about steep stairs. Missing toiletries, had to ask on three separate occasions. Small room, charming but stuffed with things that made the stay less relaxing; huge cushions but nowhere to put them, tiny wardrobe with half the space taken... More

Ruths Hotel is located in the old part of Skagen conveniently on the beach. It's roughly 5 kms away from the city centre of Skagen on the other side of the peninsula and thus they have the privileage of being able to enjoy the sun setting over the ocean.

Went with friends for a one night stay at this lovely hotel. Certainly a great experience. I would like to go there with my husband, as I found the place very romantic indeed. Loved the comfy beds, the atmosphere and luxury breakfast. I can only recommend this place.
