Upon arrival in Copenhagen, you have the option to take the train from the airport, which is just a few minutes' walk from your hotel. If you prefer a private transfer, this can be arranged. Check into your Superior room at Villa Copenhagen. Depending on your arrival time, take a stroll to explore the nearby area—there might be plenty of events and activities happening, depending on the season.

In the evening, you might want to unwind with a cocktail or, if the weather is pleasant, take a pre-dinner stroll to experience Copenhagen’s night-time charm.

Villa Copenhagen tells the story of the city’s Central Post and Telegraph Head office which dates back to 1912. Its recent transformation brings together past and present in an inspiring and playful ambience. 390 exquisitely designed rooms and suites honour the ethos of the old European heritage together with modern design touches. The Courtyard bar sits below an impressive glass ceiling where you can enjoy light meals, coffee and beverages. Bar T37, once the postal sorting office, offers an after hours zone for amazing hand crafted cocktails. The onsite bakery attracts locals and visitors alike for freshly baked goods and Danish pastries. Meanwhile on the hotel’s roof, a 25 meter lap pool and sauna not only offers a unique area to relax and refresh, but fantastic views of Copenhagen’s skyline.
