Located in a quiet corner of Indre By but just a five-minute walk from the 17th century Nyhavn waterfront, this bright and welcoming apartment puts you right in the heart of Copenhagen’s action. We love the homey comforts on offer here, from the sheepskin throws to the inviting Scandi and vintage furnishings and the large windows proferring fourth-floor views over the city’s rooftops. Our favourite spot is the private balcony with its views of Christiansborg’s spire. Sit here with your morning coffee while soaking up the fresh air or gather at the elegant dining table with the French doors open to enjoy the warmth and cosiness of your home. With plenty of curios decking the shelves, original artwork, a record player to serenade your evenings and a beautiful antique bureau on which to catch up on work, you’re all set for a relaxing time here, whether for business or pleasure. Factor in the luxurious Hästens bed for a dreamy night’s sleep and you may never leave your comfortable home. When you do, however, you’ll be wowed by the countless sights within easy reach on foot, including the Kongens Nytorv (seven minutes), Strøget’s upscale shops and indie boutiques (twelve minutes) and the Tivoli Gardens (fifteen minutes).

Brimming with Scandi charm, this top-floor apartment offers a stylish base in the centre of Copenhagen. Not only are the interiors comfortable and bright, but you also have the luxury of a private balcony with views of neighbouring red rooftops.

In this home, you'll feel a tangible sense of calm among the nude-toned furnishings and smooth textures. Wake up and prepare a coffee and Danish pastry in the sleek high-spec kitchen, then glide outside for a leisurely breakfast in the sun. After a morning of lounging in the homely living space, head downstairs and step straight into the city centre.

The widely photographed Nyhavn harbour, flanked by colourful buildings, is just a five-minute walk away. Enjoy lunch with a view before venturing to nearby Christiansborg Palace, a 12th-century structure that houses the government – you can also peruse its impressive collection of artwork. Indulge in some light shopping in the atmospheric Strøget area, and remember to pick up a bottle of wine to enjoy on your balcony once you wind your way back home.

With the Queen Margrethe as your next-door neighbour, it’s no wonder that the two-bedroom home has a grandiose and illustrious feel. The combination of the lively colour palette and the contemporary Scandinavian design mixed with lavish textures makes A Royal Affair a one-of-a-kind home that also places you in one of the most central locations in Copenhagen. If you fancy a traditional Danish meal, Nyhavn is just around the corner, but you can also just stay in to take advantage of the picturesque surroundings.

A Royal Affair

Balcony / Patio

Locations really don’t get much better than this. It's rare to find a property this close by to the picture-perfect Nyhavn district, with its brightly coloured gabled townhouses. Find a sunny spot outside at a quayside café or hop on a boat for one of the many canal tours that start here. As the evening draws in, take a pre-dinner stroll along the waterfront, then duck into one of the many restaurants and bars that line the canal.  You could call in on the Queen too, she lives just around the corner. And when it’s finally time to retreat inside, you’ll find a contemporary place that invites you to be social. The communal area is the heart of the home, offering plenty of space for your tribe to hang out, cook, and eat. The industrial-style windows flood natural light through the apartment by day, while the plush velvet curtains allow privacy at night when it’s time for some shut-eye.

Parallelogram is sophisticated in that Scandi chic way that we just love. It elegantly blends wooden furniture, green plants and photos taken by the host himself to form a modern minimalist home with plenty of charm. You are a five-minute walk from Nyhavn and all of its cultural attractions. If you feel like experiencing the city in a different way, you can also sit down on the sunny balcony with a cup of coffee and watch Copenhageners go about their day.

Private Washing Machine

If you’re searching for classic Scandinavian design in a fantastic location, this apartment delivers. Located on the third floor of a historic building without a lift, there is plenty of space for a group of nine to relax after a day of exploring. It’s worth noting there is only one bathroom here, but it's ideal for remote workers with dedicated desk space and families will appreciate the children’s amenities available for an additional fee. From here, it’s just a short stroll to the bars and restaurants of Nyhavn, while shops and historic sights are also within walking distance.

A bohemian atmosphere meets Japanese zen in this striking home. We particularly love all the original features including the wooden beams, exposed brick walls (and even the creaky floors), which mix beautifully with the hosts’ collection of books and vintage furniture. Since the apartment was renovated in 2013, it has been featured in several lifestyle magazines for its charming design aesthetic. Spread across three floors, unique quirks include the rather rustic ladders that take you up to the second and third floors. Curl up in a cosy corner with a book in hand and live the scene of what seems like it could be a fictional dream. Alongside world literature, the host also supplies guests with access to gym equipment, should you wish to keep up with your fitness routine while visiting Copenhagen. Around the apartment, the immediate area feels very local – the Christianshavn canals are just two minutes away, and so are plenty of restaurants. All in all, it's safe to say that this home is perfectly out of the ordinary.

Desk

As expected for an 18th-century Copenhagen home, the layout of this large and oh-so-stylish studio is a little kooky. One bedroom with a handy desk nook is tucked into the eaves on a mezzanine, so it's not the most private of spaces. The living area, which houses a sofa bed for two guests, forms part of the main bedroom. And while the balcony is a bonus, it's pocket-sized. But you can't quibble with the location. Set slap bang in the middle of Indre By, you're within walking distance of all the city's must-sees. Get off to a flying start at the shopping mecca of Strøget – it's right outside your door. Just note that this is a central, noisy area – light sleepers may want to pack earplugs.

Nordic Dream

Centrally located and chicly styled, this apartment ticks all of our boxes. You'll be based in lively Indre By, just a short walk from Nyhavn's colourful harbour and Strøget's many shops. But even better than the location is the private roof terrace back home. It's the perfect spot to enjoy a Danish beer and admire the city views. Indoors, the pared-back interiors feature natural elements and lots of light. The kitchen isn't the biggest and there is some adult-themed artwork, but otherwise, it's a cosy option in the heart of the city.

A Viking Hideaway

Sound System

Courtyard

Copenhagen is a thriving hive of charisma, energy and charm – and you're perfectly placed to explore every avenue. This enchanting apartment is one of the colourful homes that line Nyhavn, a dreamy harbour of welcoming cafes and vibrant restaurants playing jazz. It's like walking through a Danish fairytale.

Begin your mornings wandering along the canal, coffee in hand as you bask in the picturesque scenery. Grab a pastry then stroll towards Christianhavn, one of the upbeat and flourishing hubs of the capital city. Here you'll find hip bars and eating spots to mingle with the locals. Stroget, Copenhagen's busy retail district, is the place to be if you want to immerse yourself in the city's shopping culture. Chic boutiques selling ultra-stylish clothing coexist with iconic stores – it caters to every fashion sense. For higher-end couture, Magasin Du Nord showcases the on-trend items.

However you spend your day in the Danish capital, the snug tranquillity of the home acts as a restful haven after a day of walking the cobbled streets. And since it comes with noise-cancelling windows, you won’t have to worry too much about the lively street below you. Cosy up with a spot of Netflix while sipping hot chocolate to bring your evening to a close, or perhaps treat yourself to a glass of wine while admiring the canal view from your balcony.

There’s no place like home… Until you’ve stayed in Master of Light that is. Casual luxury at its finest, it’s Copenhagen at its best. The location is extraordinary – you’re right besides Nyhavn, the city’s most famous postcard motif. And we can’t get over the design. Alexander clearly has a passion for Danish design, with works by Bang & Olufsen and Hans J. Wegner adorning every corner. There’s also a fantastic rooftop terrace with a nine-person hot tub, sun beds and a lounge arrangement, plus fantastic views of Copenhagen's historic buildings.



Master of Light

Tucked away in the heart of the city, this contemporary apartment is an ideal base for a Copenhagen getaway. With metro stations nearby for hopping across the city, and key spots such as Amalienborg Castle and Nyhavn nearby, exploring is a breeze. Sure, you’ll need to be able to climb stairs to the second floor to reach this home. And at full occupancy, two people will sleep on the sofa bed in the living room – but it’s a small price to pay for the location. With a glass partition separating the bedroom and open-plan living area, we think this apartment is better suited to families who are comfortable sharing the space. 

City Hideaway

This Copenhagen bolthole may be pocket-sized, but it would work well for two friends or colleagues looking for a central base to lay their heads. There's little space for socialising, with no living room to speak of. But each bedroom has a cushy chair and the dining banquette in the compact kitchen is a cosy spot for breakfast, and the bakery nearby will keep the pastries flowing. Outside, Nyhavn's buzzy cafes and restaurants are just around the corner. Kongens Nytorv Metro Station is also within easy reach, ready for you to blaze a trail across the city.


Nyhavn Soul

This city-centre apartment is seriously chic – we absolutely loved its minimalist Scandi vibes. The communal area is open and bright, offering plenty of space for all six guests to hang out together. There are thoughtful touches like vintage illustrated posters hanging on the wall above comfortable furniture from New Scandinavian Design maestros, Bolia. The glass-walled bedrooms are definitely a novel touch and create a strong impact. They certainly won't be to everyone's taste, but all have velvet curtains to pull across for some privacy when needed. With views onto Copenhagen's main shopping street, Strøget, you couldn't be better placed to hit the luxury boutiques and independent shops when the mood takes you. Plus, you're not far from the colourful waterside bars and restaurants of Nyhavn or the high culture of the Royal Danish Theatre – a little over a five-minute walk away.

Silver Bear

Do Copenhagen right and stay at this swoon-worthy Scandi apartment in the city centre. With light-filled rooms, an unbeatable location and the rare luxury of a private terrace, it doesn't get better than this modern home. 

The open-plan living area is the ideal hangout spot for your holiday downtown. Finished with bright furnishings and a touch of boho charm, the spacious room is lit up with not one, not two, but six windows. After preparing meals in the snazzy kitchen, you have a choice of places to dine – at the breakfast bar, the eight-person dining table, or outside in the sun (that's our pick, weather permitting). 

When it's time to explore the city, you won't have to travel far to take in Copenhagen's best sites. The cobbled Kongens Nytorv square is barely a five-minute walk away, and from here Nyhavn's colourful waterfront is another short hop. Enjoy lunch with a waterfront view, then meander through the characterful streets towards Christianshavn, a unique network of small islands. This is the place to be if you're a fan of street art and intimate music venues.

View From the Afternoon

Euphoria is a hidden gem. It’s got an abundance of personality, bright colours, a rock’n’roll-worthy collection of guitars, and Danish Modern furniture that’s to die for. We also love the charm of the historic building with wooden beams, sloped ceilings, and crooked, creaky floors. Set against the backdrop of picturesque Christianshavn Canal, you’re in a cosy neighbourhood, beloved by locals. Especially perfect for artsy bohemian souls, a stay at Euphoria is an experience that’s waiting to happen. 

Euphoria

You're right in the thick of things at this smart downtown apartment, perched along Copenhagen's shopping mecca of Strøget. The metro is just 100 metres from your door, though we doubt you'll need it with buzzy Nyhavn Harbour and countless happening restaurants and cosy cafes within walking distance. It's worth noting if four of you share, the last two guests will have to make do with the sofa bed in the living space. You'll also need to prepare for some street noise from time to time. But we'll take that for a home with such an unbeatable location.

Strøget Delight

The Close-Up is on the small side, but it’s got lots of cool decorative elements, striking colour combinations, and sleek white floors. Located in a quiet backyard to a street packed with beautiful classicist and Rococo architecture, this studio home’s revamped interiors feel like a modern hideaway in a historic part of Copenhagen. The kitchen is basic and not suitable for cooking elaborate meals, but who says you even have to cook when you’re close to gems like Bistro Royal, Geist and Havfruen. 

The Close-up

The Magic Flute is rich in history. Located just off lively Nyhavn, the building dates all the way back to 1658 (there’s a plaque at the entrance detailing all the owners throughout the years). With crooked, creaky floors, it’s oozing old charm – and paired with Matilde’s artwork, instruments, and personality, it becomes one of a kind. She’s an opera singer and works just down the road in the Royal Opera House, which only makes this home even more special.

The Magic Flute

Cafetiere

Welcome Hamper

Situated in Copenhagen’s bustling Amager district, this 17th-century trading house is home to one of the sleekest apartments this side of the Baltic. 

If you love Scandinavian design, you’ll love the interior here. Dreamt up by FABRK Studio, a team of local architects, its dark wood fixtures and Calacatta marble accents make this place feel more chic city hideout than typical hotel alternative. It’s not style over substance here though – boasting all the amenities you’d expect from a high-end holiday rental, this apartment has everything you need for a comfortable stay in the Capital. 

Wake up to refreshing views of Amalie Garden then head out to explore the city. You don’t need us to tell you that there’s plenty to do here but if you’re looking for recommendations, why not wander over to the terraces at Sankt Annæ for a light breakfast before making your way to Jægersborggade for a spot of boutique shopping? Whether you choose to spend all day sightseeing or sampling delicious food at one of Copenhagen’s many high-end restaurants, you’ll love coming home to your sleek apartment and enjoying a well-deserved glass of wine on the terrace before turning in for the night. We don't know about you but that sounds pretty perfect to us. 

Harbourside Chic

Ideally located and only two minutes from Amalienborg Palace, this stylish and immaculate home with plenty of space. With four bedrooms, two living spaces and an open-plan kitchen/dining area, large groups will be very comfortable here. The glass-walled bedrooms might leave you feeling a little exposed, but they are a cool design feature that adds a unique feel. As well as being close to the Queen's winter residence, you're also only a five-minute walk from the iconic canalside district of Nyhavn. It's the perfect place to while away a long summer's evening. Either with a cold one on the quayside like the locals or at one of the many restaurants overlooking the old tall ships.

Order of the Elephant

If sightseeing is the top priority for your Copenhagen trip, then this apartment in Indre By puts all the popular attractions right at your fingertips. You'll find the Amalienborg Castle and Nyhavn within a ten-minute walk, yet the home's quiet courtyard will help you feel far removed from the tourists. The apartment offers a small kitchenette for preparing light bites and a double sofa bed that adds flexibility for larger groups, though keep in mind that wardrobe space is limited – we recommend packing light. 

Nordic Haven

This truly unique home is set over three floors with high ceilings, exposed beams and classically Danish design elements throughout. First built in 1755, it's been transformed into an incredible space that perfectly suits modern living. Brilliantly located in an area buzzing with activity, the building helps to block any noise from the outside world – providing you with the best of both worlds. You enter the home through a little courtyard to find the first couple of floors taken up by well-appointed bedrooms with soothing neutral colour palettes that help you drift off at the end of the day. However, it's the open-plan top floor that is the undoubted star of the show. It's an ideal space for socialising as you hang out by the kitchen counter and relax in the chillout area before sitting down for dinner at the large, ten-seater dining table. And if you'd like to treat yourself to a meal out, you've got too many options to mention within a short walk. Plus, with Amalienborg Palace and Nyhavn just around the corner, you won't have to go far to experience the best of Copenhagen. 

Timber House

This home has gone all-in on the bold and clean design aesthetic, with large windows letting in plenty of light, creating a refreshing atmosphere. We adore the black matte kitchen – ready for you to cook up a storm to enjoy on the velvet tan seats while overlooking the charming city. Recognised as the happiest city in the world – that had to be telling you something, and even better, you get to experience it.

Tivoli Gardens, a thirteen-minute walk away, has 19th-century depictions of the Orient and provides a magnificent spectacle with thousands of colourful lights in the evening for you to enjoy. There is no city in the world that loves cycling more than Copenhagen, so rent a bike and go riding, heading to Nyhavn, a place you won't forget, with its brightly coloured gabled townhomes, salty boats, and frothy beer to savour while taking in the view. For some high culture, spend the evening at a jazz club or the Royal Danish Theater.

The Light of Home

This home has gone all-in on the bold and clean design aesthetic. While it might feel a bit sparse to those who prefer personal touches, the Danes don't mess about when it comes to clean lines and functionality. The bedrooms have a bright and open feel, with the master enjoying direct access to a shared outdoor space, while the second bedroom boasts some ornate wood panelling as a nod to the age of the building. It's seriously central, making it an excellent base for exploring the city on foot. With a view of Strøget (Copenhagen's main pedestrianised shopping area), you couldn't be better placed to spend some of those krone burning a hole in your pocket in all the uber-chic boutiques. Sample some of Copenhagen's history by visiting the Rundetaarn – the oldest functioning observatory in Europe is a five-minute walk – while Nyhavn's many waterside eateries are ten minutes away.

Free Parking On Street

Adorned with beautiful wooden beams and gorgeous windows reminiscent of its warehouse past, Out of the Woods is a very special home. For what it lacks in luxuriousness, it makes up for with its charming location – Christianshavn is a unique part of Copenhagen with local restaurants, bars and endless canals. To some, it might be a disadvantage that the bedrooms don’t have any curtains, but who could say no to enjoying the breathtaking views of the rows of colourful houses and picture-perfect Church of our Saviour at any time of the day?

Out of the Woods

If you're looking for a Copenhagen bolthole that delivers on both style and location, this Indre By apartment should do nicely. While there is heaps of space for everyone to spill out in the free-flowing living areas, the stylish yet compact bedrooms may be a let-down for some. Prepare for some waiting around in the mornings, too, with only one bathroom. Although with a light-filled dining area for lazy breakfasts, what's the big rush? Set in a lively area of Indre By, expect some street noise. But that's all par for the course for a home this central.

Postcard from Indre By

Set in an inner courtyard belonging to the iconic Nyhavn Harbour, this design-savvy apartment is right in the thick of things. Part of a grand period building, while the shared entrance is pretty unremarkable, inside this home is a real gem. The living area is light-filled, and two of the elegant bedrooms have inter-connecting doors – handy for family sharing. There's also a single sofa bed in the lounge for teens who'd rather not share. The communal courtyard and playground are a nice touch, too, for when the sun shines down on Denmark's capital.

Harbour Charm

Conveniently located in the heart of Copenhagen, footsteps from Nyhavn’s charming waterfront, this apartment is the perfect place to crash after a busy day exploring Denmark’s capital. Bars and restaurants are on the doorstep, so you may want to bring earplugs if you’re hoping for a lie-in. Inside, while there isn’t a huge amount of space for socialising, especially when the sofa bed is in use, the bedrooms are comfortable, and the kitchen is equipped for longer stays. 

A Song of Copenhagen

Embrace the laid-back maritime atmosphere of the neighbourhood during your stay at this unique, open-plan apartment. Its enviable location on the top floor means that it offers enviable views over the area, but it's illuminated from both sides, providing you with plenty of natural light to enjoy throughout the day. Not that you'll be in much with the delights on your doorstep.

Made up of a collection of small islands, Christianshavn is best known for its cafe culture and canals lined with colourful boats. You're just 500m from the alternative hotspot of Freetown Christiania, while the super impressive Copenhagen Opera House is a couple of kilometres away (it's hard to imagine two more dramatically different cultural centres). Further north, Copenhagen Street Food is ten minutes by bike, where you can sample inventive international cuisine. For travellers interested in design, atmosphere and culture, it doesn't get much better than Christianshavn.

After a day spent exploring the area, head back home for dinner cooked in the well-equipped kitchen and a chance to put your feet up on the sofa. Then, when your eyes start to get heavy, take yourself off to the cosy bedroom for a fantastic night's sleep.

Down the Golden Stairs

Bright, modern and unbeatably central, this Copenhagen pad offers comfort and style in the popular Danish capital. Fall in love with the light-filled living space, tastefully decorated with a typically Scandinavian sense of minimalism and effortless cool. We're especially smitten with the sleek, matte black kitchen. When the sun comes out, you have your own private balcony to kick back on, coffee and traditional custard pastry in hand. What more could you want?

When it comes to location, it doesn't get better than this apartment. Push open your front door and find yourself right in the city centre, with shops, restaurants and bars in every direction. Strøget, an expansive pedestrian street lined with trendy boutiques, is just a five-minute walk away. From here, saunter across the canal and over to the Christiansborg Palace. This historic landmark houses the current Danish government – as well as a stellar collection of paintings and sculptures.

Scandi State of Mind

This duplex apartment is located in Nyhavn and overlooks both a quiet courtyard on one side and a great cityscape view on the other, which includes the Royal Theatre as a neighbour – just a three-minute walk away. Start each morning here in Danish style and enjoy a fresh waffle from the bakery that can be reached within just five minutes on foot before heading out for a day of sightseeing and exploring.

The renowned Nyhavn harbour is just a five-minute walk from your door where you can enjoy the views of colourful seventeenth-century buildings and old ships docked. In the evening, why not sip a cool beer by the docks, dine at one of the many restaurants, or listen to a local jazz band play?

Cross the walking bridge to Christianshavn – an eighteen-minute walk from your door – and wander one of the most vibrant spots in Copenhagen. Explore Hans Christian Anderson’s fairytale Denmark and visit the monument to the writer and the Little Mermaid statue – which are an eighteen-minute and twenty-minute walk away, respectively. Zip-around the neighbourhood on a Segway or take a guided bike tour, and if you’d rather see the city from the waters, then rent a boat and cruise the canals, or relax and let a captain guide you. Whatever you choose to do in Copenhagen, this home is ideally located to see some of the best sights of the city. 

Little Ida's Flowers

The Danish have perfected the art of minimalism and when it comes to showcasing how it’s done, this beautiful home makes a perfect example. 

With its soft tones and traditional features, there’s a sense of effortless ease here. The open plan living and kitchen are simple and functional yet also stylish - making the perfect spot for breakfast or dining with friends. 

Set in the heart of Copenhagen, this home sits in front of the historic department store Magasin Du Nord. This is a great place to take notes on quintessential Danish style. Wind your way through the streets and explore some of the historic sights of this area - such as the seventeenth century Rosenborg Castle Gardens, only six-minutes on foot. 

There’s also a metro stop a hundred meters from your door, making it easy to connect with the rest of the city. After a day of exploring you’ll love coming home to relax on the private roof terrace. 

Light & Grace

Tucked back from the hustle and bustle of the ever-popular harbourside hotspot of Nyhavn, this spectacular apartment ranks among our favourites in the city. 

A large open-plan living area is the focal point of any stay here, with a sleek handleless kitchen, a typically stylish mid-century dining table and chairs, plus a comfortable seating area. It's lined with windows along one side, letting in plenty of natural light during the day. When night falls, elegant pendant lights illuminate the space.

Stride out into the picturesque pocket of the city. This 17th-century canal, lined with colourful houses and stunning sailboats, continuously tops lists of Copenhagen's must-see sights, and it's easy to see why. But, while it may attract the tourists, there's no doubt that the locals love it just as much, and you'd be hard-pushed to find a better spot in the city to enjoy a cold beer on a warm summer's afternoon.

To the east, a bridge connects you to the cafes and canals of Christianshavn and the hippie haven of Christiania, where quirky self-built homes line the lake. While to the west lie Copenhagen's pedestrianised shopping streets and the low-key creative cool of Kødbyen, also known as the Meatpacking District, a ten-minute bike ride away.


Transitions in Pink

The Alphabet oozes Copenhagen charm. Not only is it a loved home with personality aplenty, but you’re also so central that you can see beautiful Copenhagen spires and copper-clad roofs from the terrace. We love how this two-bedroom home juxtaposes contemporary Danish design with design classics like the Safari Chair and the PH 80 floor lamp. It’s very clearly a family home, so expect to feel a cosy and caring atmosphere as soon as you walk through the door.

New Nordic is one of those homes that are just so effortlessly sophisticated. As soon as we stepped foot here, we were sold. The amalgamation of well-curated art and industrial-style furniture in a repurposed 1700s shell with lots of charisma makes it a very special place. Even though you’re right in the heart of Copenhagen, it feels like a tranquil haven with lots of space for contemplation. You also can’t go wrong with the charming views of traditional yellow timber-framed houses and copper-clad roofs. 

New Nordic

Located in the back building of a courtyard close to vibrant Nyhavn, this unique apartment channels old Copenhagen in a light-hearted way. We love this place – it's quirky, quiet, and crooked (it's in a typical timber-framed building with brick walls and low ceilings). Your host, Mikkel, is a music-lover, so there's an abundance of instruments, sound equipment and a huge record collection, as well as cool design classics by Hans J. Wegner – one of Denmark's most creative furniture designers. We also couldn't take our eyes off the lion foot bathtub, elegantly paired with a surfboard for a playful touch – though the tub is for decoration purposes only. Step out into Copenhagen's charming streets, and you'll find yourself just a few hundred metres from the colourful waterside bars and restaurants of Nyhavn. Stroll a few minutes further and you can browse the boutiques that line pedestrianised Strøget. Finally, head away from the centre, and the world-famous Little Mermaid statue is around twenty minutes' walk away. Alternatively, do as the locals do and cycle around the city to cut your journey times in half.

Even though The Lana is largely minimalist, it’s got plenty of charm with intimate sloped ceilings, bursts of funky colour, and artsy decorations. The bright orange two-seater adds joie de vivre, and we also love the impressive collection of royal blue Arne Jacobsen Ant chairs. This one-bedroom home is right in the centre of Copenhagen, so if you’re looking to be bang in the middle of everything, The Lana could be the one for you.  

The Lana

On the third floor of a beautiful 1870s building, we find Opera Diva. It has expressive interiors with a mix of Scandinavian chic furniture and antique pieces that are paired with some of the host’s own illustrations. And it also comes with a bathtub, which is something we rarely see in Copenhagen. As as an added bonus, one of the most famous Danish opera singers lives next door – and even though she’s retired, you can still hear her practising her singing now and then.

This Copenhagen apartment has all the hallmarks of sophisticated design. There’s a sleek black kitchen with trendy copper details, pared-back rooms with moody feature walls and industrial-style windows that bridge the gap between private and communal spaces—they’re even draped with heavy, velvety curtains for moments when you want some privacy. Step out of your front door and straight into the city centre. You’re within touching distance of speciality coffee houses, the pedestrianised Strøget with its endless stream of shops and high-profile kitchens serving cutting-edge dishes. A two-minute walk will take you to the Kongens Have—the manicured lawns are a prime spot for sun worshipers on warm days and the huge flower beds are a glorious sight in the summer months.
