HOTEL D’ANGLETERRE

Hosting travellers for more than 200 years, this five-star icon is the city’s finest address, with crystal chandeliers and marble-floored halls. It’s primed for a period drama, although modern touches — such as a glamorous Michelin-star restaurant, superb spa and indoor pool — mean the 92-room property never feels old fashioned. Book a balcony suite overlooking cobbled Kongens Nytorv square and pack your finest wardrobe to sip cocktails at the high-end bar, Balthazar, which has 160 varieties of Champagne.
