HOTEL SANDERS

Embrace the Danish obsession of hygge at this boutique hotel, where flames flicker in open fireplaces and shelves are stocked with good books. Owned by a former ballet dancer, the venue attracts a local crowd of creatives, who you’ll find chatting away in the low-lit bar. The 54 rooms range from spacious apartments to compact singles inspired by the train cabins of golden-era travel. Book the property’s private wooden boat for sightseeing tours along Nyhavn canal, with its famous row of coloured houses. Alternatively, borrow a bike to explore the neighbourhood, home to the Royal Theatre and the Royal Danish Opera. ROOMS: DKK 2,107 (£241). hotelsanders.com
