HOTEL ASTORIA, BEST WESTERN SIGNATURE COLLECTION, Copenhagen

The hotel sits directly adjacent to Copenhagen Central Station, making arrival from the airport effortless via a 12-minute direct train. The metro stop is also a 30-second walk, providing access to the M3/M4 lines for easy exploration. Tivoli Gardens is across the street, and the main shopping area, Strøget, is a 7-minute walk. The Vesterbro district offers a lively atmosphere with restaurants and bars nearby. For those driving, no on-site parking exists, but several private parking houses are a short walk away. Bicycle rental is available at the hotel for 120 DKK per 24 hours. The location is ideal for travellers prioritising proximity to transport links and city centre attractions.

The hotel offers a variety of room types including standard double, superior double, triple, and family rooms. Superior and family rooms are equipped with tea and coffee making facilities, and most superior rooms feature a private balcony (some have a French balcony). Single rooms are compact but functional; a kettle and iron can be borrowed from reception. All rooms include a private bathroom with a shower, hairdryer, and complimentary Danish luxury bath amenities. The building is an original 1935 art deco property, so rooms vary in size and layout. Soundproofing is limited - rooms facing the train tracks experience significant noise and vibration from passing trains, while those at the rear are quieter. Some double beds consist of two single mattresses pushed together, and a small number of double beds are positioned against a wall, making access from one side more difficult. Fans are available on request as there is no air conditioning. Some rooms show signs of wear and dated furniture. Rollaway beds and cots are available on request.

Breakfast is a buffet offering a wide variety of items, including fresh bread, pastries, fruit, yoghurt, granola, deli meats, cheeses, hot items such as scrambled eggs and sausages, and various beverages. The breakfast selection is adequate but may be limited in hot options at times; it is self-service. The hotel bar is open in the lobby area and offers a happy hour between 16:00 and 17:00, with a limited selection of drinks. For lunch and dinner, the surrounding Vesterbro district has numerous restaurants and cafes within a short walk.

Key services include a 24-hour reception, free luggage storage before check-in and after check-out, and a secure locker room. The lobby features a shared lounge/TV area with complimentary hot drinks (tea, coffee, hot chocolate) and fruit available 24/7. A bar is located in the lobby, open in the evening.
