What reviewers say

Visitors praise Absalon for its friendly atmosphere and community-focused events like communal dinners, which are often described as delicious and a great way to meet people. However, some find the venue to be very crowded, especially with teenagers, and seating can be difficult to organize, particularly for larger groups.

About this place Absalon

Absalon, at Helgolandsgade 15 in Vesterbro, is a short stroll from Copenhagen Central Station. You'll find everything from compact budget rooms to large suites here. The hotel's gay-friendly, though not exclusively so. It's got a breakfast buffet and a cocktail bar, where drinks cost around €8. Tivoli and City Hall Square are just a few minutes' walk away. If you're looking for Copenhagen's gay scene, you're about 10 to 15 minutes on foot from the bars around Studiestræde and the Latin Quarter. Vesterbro's got its own share of restaurants and bars, too. With a 4.6 rating across over 3,000 Google reviews, Absalon does better than you'd expect for a hotel near the station. Its rooms may not be the biggest, but the location's hard to beat. You can walk to six bars in three blocks, and still be back at the hotel by midnight, or later - it's open until 3am on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays.
