Wonderful for a family
Our room was perfect for a family of 4. Adults upstairs, kids on individual cots, and there was still plenty of room. Corner balcony was awesome. Easy check in and out. Nice breakfast. Great location!!!

Good hotel in excellent location
The hotel is good and in an excellent location. The room was very spacious and the breakfast was very nice.
The lobby area is however very tiny and the two elevators are questionable. One of them is super tiny so you can’t be claustrophobic if you want to use that one….

Excellent breakfast and Location
Location and breakfast were excellent. Room was ok, some miner fixes that need to be addressed. Hanger in entrance was broken, bathroom floor kind of gross, light shade in the bathroom was dirty with stains. No rack in shower room for personal soaps.

Great location but the hotel needs some upgrades. We had a water leak coming out of the ceiling in our room that was not addressed in a timely manner and there was no compensation offered. Good breakfast.

Scandic Front was in a great location for walking to most places but had the tranquility of being at the waters edge. The breakfast options were plentiful and delicious. The room was a good size with a balcony but was very basic and could do with some modernising.

Great location. Great breakfast. Friendly front desk staff. Clean comfortable bed.
Rooms old and outdated. Stains on walls and carpets. Smells like cigarette smoke. Shower needs a door. Overhead sprayer broken on shower. Stone floor impossible to clean, holds dirt.

Excellent place to stay.
Great location. Rooms were fairly quiet, and the blockout blinds fairly effective although the bright sunrise one day did light up the room. Amazing location, a 5 minute walk from Nyhavn and another 5 minutes to a major train line. I would happily stay here again. Only one qualm, the rooms were a little warm for my liking even with the heating turned off. Had to leave the window open at night time and let in some cool air. (Nb this was in march when it was zero overnight). Breakfast selection was good too.

Tired and needing refurbishment
Hotel tired and needing refurbishment.
Beds are terrible-just mattress toppers on old Divans-very soft.
There is no AC as advertised and rooms are very hot.
No bar as advertised.
Overall does not warrant a 4-5 start rating although well located.

Poor value for money.
Ok hotel, but rather worn down and in need of a renovation. Wear and tear on everything from Walls, carpets, door frames toilets and so on leaves an overall impression well below avarage, especially considering the price. Great location though.

Well located, great breakfast but basic rooms
Stayed here for a pre Christmas trip with my son. Hotel is well located, the breakfast is varied and plentiful with options for coeliacs and dairy intolerant. Staff were all very friendly and helpful. Only downsides were lack of any bar or activity in reception meant it lacked atmosphere and didn’t feel very welcoming. And rooms are basic with no cleaning provided unless requested for environmental reasons - I am used to towel and sheet changes only on request but no cleaning at all, not even emptying bins didn’t make sense for the stated environmental reasons. When I asked it if would be possible to have the basics done (beds made, bins emptied, room tidied and vacuumed) daily I was told it was full service or nothing, with the latter feeling excessive so we opted for no service at all!

The only good experience was the booking through Expedia. The hotel is located really well near the touristy spots and is also in a nice neighbourhood and in a quiet area. But that's about it.
They don't have any service what so ever. They don't have a phone in the room. They don't even provide dental or shaving kits. There was noise from the road and also work outside the door all the time. We complained about heating and the front desk informed someone will be there tomorrow because no one was there when we raised the issue but the "tomorrow" never arrived.
So, if price is not too much of a difference, look for another nearby hotel.
