Sanders: A Cozy-Chic Boutique Hotel In The Heart Of Copenhagen
Hotel Sanders
This intimate Danish hotel boasts stylish interiors, a central location, several lively dining and drink options, and a sense of laid-back cool.
The boutique hotel sits on a quiet street in Copenhagen's historic center.
Hotel Sanders is centrally located on a quiet neighborhood street in the heart of Copenhagen's historic center. It's directly behind the Royal Danish Theatre and is a quick stroll to the postcard-famous Nyhavn Canal.
Guest suite
The boutique property is owned by Alexander Kølpin, a renowned former Danish ballet dancer whose family has run a hotel business for three generations. Once the Opera Hotel, Kølpin bought the run-down property and gave it fresh life, reopening the property in 2017.
Rooftop Terrace
Sanders is chic and buzzy — yet relaxed and unpretentious.
The Courtyard

Roof Terrace
The design is a collaboration between Kølpin and the London-based studio of Lind + Almond. It's a deft mix of sleek Danish mid-century modern design and colonial décor like rattan cane-couches, folding screens, potted palms, and textiles in botanical prints. From common spaces like the living room to the guest rooms and suites, it's all layered with vintage books, artwork, and one-of-a-kind objet that give each room a storied patina.
