Bottom Line

A modern yet romantic alternative to the chain hotels in the touristy parts of central Copenhagen, Bertrams, part of the eco-friendly Guldsmeden chain, is located in the hip, residential Vosterbro District. Its 47 lovely rooms -- with four-poster beds and claw-foot tubs -- mix modern Danish design with Balinese touches. The hotel offers free Wi-Fi, and an impressive organic breakfast buffet. Although amenities are limited -- there's no spa, fitness center, or business center --  there is a large lounge area and a stunning breakfast room, terrace, lobby, and garden.

Oyster Hotel Review

Bertrams Guldsmeden – Copenhagen

Scene

Beautifully furnished common areas with antiques and a subtle dragonfly theme

Run by a friendly couple, this property is filled with personal touches. The decor is immaculately put together, with seamlessly matched antiques. The theme seems to be dragonflies, often reflected subtly as in a tile in the garden walkway. In the lovely lit lobby, cow prints adorn some of the chairs and couches, and there's a big bamboo feature against one of the walls. Bertrams seems to  gear itself toward tourist couples -- no children under 18 are allowed -- although its free Wi-Fi and proximity to the city center could make it a good choice for business travelers too. While there's no dedicated business center, the lounge is split up into a few separate areas, providing some privacy for meetings.

Location

On a busy road in Vesterbro, not too far from downtown

The hotel is situated on a busy street in the Vesterbro District, which is within a 15-minute walk of Lyshojgardsvej, the central rail station. Its on a street with lots of shops and several small cafes. Frederiksberg Gardens is a little more than a half mile away. There's a bus stop right in front of the hotel, and several major attractions are within a 10- to 15-minute bike ride. The airport is within a 15-minute drive.

Rooms

Contemporary rooms with four-poster beds and clawfoot tubs

The rooms have a light, contemporary feel, with white, grey, taupe, and black color schemes, piebald cowhide chairs, and lightwood four-poster beds draped with white fabric and tied back with natural twine fringed with bunches of shells. Bathrooms come with large bottles of eco-friendly toiletries and clawfoot tubs. Because the hotel is L-shaped, many of the balconies have views of rooms on the adjacent side of the building, which means some rooms don't feel private. All rooms have double-glazed windows, which does a great job of keeping the sound out, even in rooms overlooking the busy road, where only a low rumbling of traffic can be heard. The hotel doesn't have air-conditioning, but fans are provided in rooms.
