Hotel d’Angleterre. Copenhagen

Set in the Kongens Nytorv at the heart of Copenhagen, the D’Angleterre is a five-star hotel which has been perennially popular with discerning travellers. The building we see today was largely reconstructed in the early twentieth century after being damaged by fire, but both before and since it has played a pivotal part in Danish society.

Countless celebrities have visited over recent decades, but those interested in more serious historical connections will be interested to know that Field Marshall Rommel stayed when the hotel was requisitioned by German troops during World War II. Hans Christian Andersen is another, more agreeable, former resident.

Hotel Dagmar. Ribe.

“Those who have not been to Ribe and stayed at the “Hotel Dagmar” -- or heard the quarterly chimes from the Cathedral -- have not experienced Denmark.“ - Andreas Vinding, Auhor.

The Hotel Dagmar is reputed to be the oldest hotel in Denmark’s oldest city, located next door to its 900 year-old cathedral. Most of the present building was constructed in 1581 after a fire the previous year had obliterated the previous building to stand on the square. After being a private residence, the building went on to be the home of the city’s mayors, until becoming an inn at the turn of the nineteenth century. It was given the name Dagmar in 1912 - derived from the city’s connection with Queen Dagmar during the 13th century.

The hotel offers a total of 50 guest rooms and is located some 20 miles south of Esbjerg.
