Hotel Mayfair

8/10 Good
"great place, fun vibe but would note that the bathrooms are a bit small in some of the rooms. Also if you have bags and are in the newer building there is some stairs involved. Overall location is great and would recommend it, esp if you love a hipster vibe."

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel is centrally located in Copenhagen and is very close to all of the main tourist attractions. Additionally, our room was very nice and had complimentary tea/coffee that were replaced daily. We also noticed that our bathroom had heated floors, which was a nice touch to the stay. The only issue we had was that our room was a little smaller than anticipated, and the tub was elevated, which made it difficult at times to get in or out. Overall, we had a great stay and would definitely come back again!"

"We stayed in the room for four which was worth the cost as we had more floor room. The showers leaked and hit the ceiling. They way the showers are built there is no lip so water roams out. We made towel barriers. It worked good enough. It is what you get from the market. All else was fine."
