Absalon Hotel Review

A hotel at Helgolandsgade 15, on the street behind Copenhagen Central Station.

Best for

Anyone whose trip is mostly about eating and going outTravellers who want the centre a walk away rather than underfootArrivals by train

Why it stands out

Where it sits in the argument. Vesterbro has the best food and the best evening in Copenhagen, and this is the short walk between the station and both.

Main trade-off

The area scores 4.0 for quietness and 6.0 for families, the lowest in the city on both. Vesterbro is the one part of town still working at three in the morning, and this is in the middle of it.

Why we recommend it

Best for the evening

Our pick for Vesterbro because it is on Helgolandsgade directly behind the central station — Istedgade at one end, the meatpacking district ten minutes south, and Indre By a walk across the bridge.
