1 Hotel Copenhagen: A Luxurious Urban Oasis
As the anticipation builds,
1 Hotels, a renowned luxury lifestyle brand founded by hospitality visionary Barry Sternlicht, has officially opened reservations for its latest property in Copenhagen, Denmark. This highly awaited hotel is set to launch in August and promises to be a unique retreat right in the heart of the city.
A Stunning Transformation
Located at
Krystalgade 22, the new hotel is a creative reimagining of the iconic
Skt. Petri, a staple of the historic Latin Quarter. The 1 Hotel Copenhagen will feature
282 rooms, carefully designed to incorporate biophilic elements that highlight the harmony between nature and urban living. Materials such as organic textures and sustainably sourced ingredients weave a tapestry of local craftsmanship within the hotel, creating a truly immersive experience.
Commitment to Sustainability
Sustainability takes center stage at 1 Hotel Copenhagen. The property aims to fulfill both
LEED Gold and
BREEAM Excellent certifications through energy-efficient operations and sustainable practices. One standout feature is the on-site garden, providing fresh herbs and edible flowers for the hotel's dining venues. Additionally, guests will find a
bee hotel, designed to foster biodiversity while deepening their connection with nature.
Barry Sternlicht, the visionary behind the brand, emphasizes the hotel's alignment with Copenhagen's commitment to responsible living.
“Copenhagen embodies conscious living, urban innovation, and bicycle culture,” he states. “1 Hotel Copenhagen encapsulates the city’s ethos of environmental responsibility, blending heritage, nature, and contemporary design.”
Seamless Integration of Design and Nature
Collaboration between several design firms, including
AvroKO and
Norm Architects, has resulted in spaces that honor Scandinavian craftsmanship. Natural materials, like oak and limestone, are paired with an inviting lighting scheme to enrich the atmosphere throughout the hotel. Upon entering, guests are welcomed into a radiant atrium lounge, framed by greenery and elevated by a striking staircase, transitioning seamlessly from day to night.
The rooms are designed as tranquil sanctuaries, featuring large windows that frame the stunning cityscape. Well-appointed bathrooms include shower spaces reminiscent of the calmness of Denmark’s forests, equipped with organic bathroom amenities and comfortable bedding made from sustainable materials.
Culinary Excellence Reflecting Nature's Bounty
Dining experiences at 1 Hotel Copenhagen revolve around local and seasonal ingredients, led by Michelin-starred chef
Chantelle Nicholson.
Fjora, the hotel’s main restaurant, draws inspiration from the North's gentle rhythms, celebrating the natural beauty of seasonal offerings in its dishes. Each component of the dining experience is crafted to reflect an understanding of and respect for local traditions.
The vibe extends to
PÆRE, a lively bar that showcases creative cocktails that highlight fresh, harvested herbs. A modern and warm atmosphere makes it an ideal gathering spot.
Tailored for Events and Wellness
The hotel boasts versatile event spaces, with a conscience toward biophilic design and practical functionality. Natural materials define the aesthetic at spaces like
Oak, which accommodates up to 200 guests, making it suitable for various events. Smaller venues like
Juniper and
Ember invite intimate gatherings for smaller groups.
Wellbeing is heavily emphasized at the 1 Hotel Copenhagen. The
Field House Gym, operational 24/7, offers a plethora of fitness programs ranging from HIIT to yoga, all designed to encourage guests to reconnect with themselves and nature. The
Bamford Wellness Spa, set to open in early 2026, will provide a suite of treatments curated to foster both physical and mental rejuvenation.
A Purpose-driven Hospitality Experience
The 1 Hotel Copenhagen is crafted to exemplify responsible hospitality, emphasizing local connection and long-term environmental stewardship. With features such as triple-glazed windows and smart occupancy sensors, the hotel is committed to energy efficiency and sustainability from its very structure.
For travelers looking to embrace luxury without sacrificing their environmental principles, the
