Escape to Copenhagen: Luxury Awaits at Hotel Lautrup Park
Escape to Copenhagen: Hotel Lautrup Park - More Than Just a Room, It's a Vibe! (A Messy, Honest Review)
Okay, so you're thinking about Copenhagen, right? The land of hygge, clogs, and… well, let's be honest, probably some insane prices. Finding a decent hotel that's actually worth it can feel like navigating a minefield. But listen up, 'cause I just escaped to Hotel Lautrup Park, and I've got the lowdown, messy, honest, and totally unfiltered. Let's dive in, shall we? (Grab a coffee, this might take a while… I'm still processing all the stuff.)
Let's Talk Accessibility… (Because Ugh, It Matters!)
Right, first things first. Accessibility. This is HUGE for some folks (and shouldn't be an afterthought!). Lautrup Park seems to get it. They actually have facilities for disabled guests, which is a massive relief. Elevator? Check. That alone bumps them up in my book. I didn't personally need to test the full wheelchair-accessible setup, but from what I saw, they've put some thought into it. Which is a massive sigh of relief, because so many hotels just don't. Internet Access: My Digital Lifeblood!
Okay, real talk: I need the internet like I need air. Thank goodness for Free Wi-Fi in all rooms! And it's actually good Wi-Fi. I could stream, work, Zoom call (yes, even with that awful meeting), all without my screen freezing up in digital agony. Also, Internet [LAN] if you're old school, which, respect. Also, Wi-Fi in public areas. Because, you know, gotta stay connected to the world, even in a hotel lobby.
Things to Relax In (And Actually Do… Because Duh!)
Alright, let's be honest, this is where it gets GOOD. I'm a total spa junkie. And Hotel Lautrup Park? They delivered. Pool with a view? Check. Sauna and Spa? Double check! They had a Steamroom too. It’s a classic, but I love a good steam room because sometimes, just sometimes, I just need to sit in a cloud of hot, moist air and pretend the world doesn't exist. And oh my god, the massage! I got a Swedish massage and almost melted into a puddle of pure bliss. I swear, the masseuse must have had magic hands. Seriously. I contemplated staying there forever. (Okay, maybe for a week. But still!) The Fitness center was pretty decent too, if you're into that sort of thing. I peeked in and saw treadmills and weights, the usual suspects.
Cleanliness & Safety: Because No One Wants the Dreaded "Hotel Funk"
Okay, this is an important one. Cleanliness is key, especially in these times. The hotel feels clean. And that matters. They're going above and beyond and have Anti-viral cleaning products, Daily disinfection in common areas. Seeing those precautions makes you feel like they are on top of the situation. They also have Hand sanitizer everywhere. The room I was also Rooms sanitized between stays. Look, I'm not saying they are perfect, but in the current climate, they take cleanliness seriously. They go as far to include Individually-wrapped food options and Safe dining setup.
Dining, Drinking, and Snacking: (My Favorite Olympic Sport)
Okay, let's get real. The food is a key factor in my hotel happiness. They had a Breakfast Buffet— which is my go-to. There was a large selection of items to choose from! It wasn't the best breakfast I have ever had but it certainly was not the worst. There was an A la carte in restaurant. And a restaurant with International cuisine. And if you are like me, the Coffee shop is so necessary to get the day going! They had all basics, and the coffee was actually drinkable! They even had a Poolside bar. This is a huge bonus.
Services & Conveniences: The "Little Things" That Make Life Easier
This is where Hotel Lautrup Park shone. Seriously, it's the little things that make a big difference. Daily housekeeping? A lifesaver. Concierge? Always helpful. Luggage storage? Essential for the pre-flight freakout. And the elevator was a godsend! The Air conditioning in public area made it a nice place to sit. They also had a convenience store for those midnight snack cravings.
For the Kids: (Or, You Know, Just the Inner Child)
I don't have kids, but I saw families there. They had Babysitting service. Getting Around: (Because Copenhagen is Freaking Amazing!)
This is a great point! If you're driving, the Car park [free of charge] is a major win. You're in Denmark, so everything is probably gonna cost a fortune! They even have a car power charging station. They also offer Taxi service and Airport transfer.
The Room: (My Personal Sanctuary… Mostly)
Okay, let’s talk about the ACTUAL room. It was good. Not AMAZING, but good. I think I needed an Air conditioning unit, because I like to keep the air cool. The Blackout curtains were a WIN. The Bed was comfy. They had Free bottled water. The Bathrobes were soft. And there was a Coffee/tea maker! (Essential for any caffeine addict.) The In-room safe box was good, and the Desk was perfect for catching up on work. The TV with On-demand movies was a lifesaver for when I needed to melt my brain into some mindless entertainment.
My One Hiccup (and It's Not a Dealbreaker)
Okay, here's where the cracks slightly show. The rooms, while clean and comfortable, aren't exactly "Instagram-ready." It's not like it's old, it just feels… functional. A little more personality in the decor would be nice, but hey, you're not living there. You're just escaping. The Escape: The Honest Verdict
Hotel Lautrup Park isn’t perfect. But it's honest. It's clean, it's comfortable, it has amazing amenities, and is very accessible. It's a solid choice for your Copenhagen adventure. It's a place where you can actually relax, recharge, and enjoy the city without breaking the bank.

Czech Republic's Hidden Gem: Unbelievable Hotel Srni Awaits!
Okay, buckle up buttercups. This isn't your sterile, perfectly-packaged travel brochure. This is MY Copenhagen chaos log, courtesy of the Hotel Lautrup Park. And let's be honest, it's probably going to get messy.
The Lautrup Park Lunacy Log: A Copenhagen Chronicle
Pre-Trip Panic (And Packing Paralysis):
- Three days before: "Right, Copenhagen. I'm going to be so sophisticated! Flowing linen trousers, a tasteful scarf, and a single, perfectly curated trench coat." (Cue hysterical laughter as I stare at my overflowing suitcase.)
- Two days before: Panic sets in. Do I have enough socks? What if I need that sequined top I haven't worn since 2017? The trench coat is now buried under approximately 700 "just in case" items.
- One day before: I'm pretty sure I've overpacked enough to clothe a small army. Deciding what to wear on the plane? A monumental struggle. Ended up in my comfiest sweats. Priorities, people.
Day 1: Arrival and a Deep Breath (Maybe Two):
- 7:00 AM (ish): Landed at Kastrup Airport. Copenhagen is… well, it’s chilly. Should've brought that scarf. Already regretting everything.
- 8:00 AM: Finding the train to the hotel was surprisingly easy. Kudos, Denmark, your public transport is a dream. (Unlike my internal narrative, which is a nightmare).
- 9:00 AM: Arrived at the Hotel Lautrup Park. The lobby is… functional. Neutral. Clean. Like a well-behaved child. (I, on the other hand, am a chaotic toddler.) Checking in was smooth, though the receptionist's unwavering politeness made me feel like I was constantly under scrutiny.
- 9:30 AM: Room. Decent, if a little beige. The bed looks promising. Decided to unpack…nah. Just threw the suitcase against the wall.
- 10:00 AM: First mission: Coffee. This is non-negotiable. Found some lukewarm instant in the lobby. Cried internally. Copenhagen, you're making me work for my caffeine fix.
- 11:00 AM: Walked around the hotel, got lost.
- 12:00 PM: Lunch. The hotel restaurant was… underwhelming. Ordered a sandwich. Ate it. Honestly, I can't remember a single detail. I will have to do something about this level of memory loss.
- 1:00 PM: Decided to have a nap. Needed a break. So, I am now currently lying horizontal.
Day 2: City Exploration and the Existential Question of the Little Mermaid
- 8:00 AM: Woke up from the nap, feeling groggy. The coffee situation remains dire.
- 9:00 AM: Train into the city center. So much to see, it was overwhelming.
- 9:30 AM: Started at Tivoli Gardens. Wow. I swear, it was all fairy lights and pure, unadulterated joy. I rode the Ferris wheel and felt like a kid again. Worth the price of admission and the que!
- 11:00 AM: Strolled through Nyhavn. The colorful buildings! The canal! The general vibe! It's postcard perfect, and I'm shamelessly taking photos of everything. Even the cobblestones.
- 12:00 PM: Found a charming café with an open-air terrace. Ordered some delicious Danishes and coffee…finally something good!
- 1:00 PM: Walking through Nyhavn, I was on a mission: The Little Mermaid. And OH MY GOD. It’s tiny! Seriously, it's probably about the size of a garden gnome. I honestly felt a bit… underwhelmed. The crowds, though? Fierce. It was like a mosh pit for mermaid appreciation. And I'm pretty sure I overhead someone saying: "This is it? I flew all the way from Ohio for this?"
- 2:00 PM: More walking. Attempted to find a museum. Got lost. Again.
- 3:00 PM: Found a charming bookstore, and just went wild. Was overwhelmed by their selection so I spent hours there.
- 5:00 PM: Took a boat tour of the canals. It was relaxing, and a good way to get a different perspective on the city. But I’m pretty sure the guide forgot to mention a single thing.
- 7:00 PM: Dinner at a restaurant. The food was good, but I felt like I was surrounded by a bunch of people who were so much more cultured than I am.
- 9:00 PM: Back to the hotel. Exhausted, but happy.
Day 3: Culture Shock and Culinary Adventures (and a Meltdown)
- 8:00 AM: Awful coffee. I swear I'm going to start a one-woman protest. Bring my own coffee machine, somehow.
- 9:00 AM: The National Museum. It’s… a lot. I spent hours there. I still don’t understand a lot of it, though.
- 12:00 PM: Lunch: Finally found a decent place. Had some smørrebrød. Delicious! I ate way too much.
- 1:00 PM: Round Two in Tivoli Gardens!
- 2:00 PM: Walking. More walking. My feet hurt. I hate sightseeing. The best part of Copenhagen is the people-watching, and the shops are nice.
- 3:00 PM: Almost a meltdown. Overwhelmed by the cost of things. Questioning my life choices. Wondering if I should just go home. (The high prices, the language barrier, the endless walking… it was all getting to me.)
- 4:00 PM: Did some very impulsive shopping. Comfort food and retail therapy were necessary.
- 5:00 PM: Went back to the hotel. Needed to recharge.
- 7:00 PM: Decided to try something new. Headed down to the hotel lounge.
- 8:00 PM: Ended up chatting with some other travelers. We all whined about our aches and pains. Found out that I am not alone.
- 9:00 PM: Bed.
Day 4: The Grand Finale and Departure (Which I’m Kinda Ready For)
- 8:00 AM: Last awful coffee.
- 9:00 AM: Decided to revisit that bookstore. More impulse buys. My credit card is weeping.
- 11:00 AM: Checked out of the Lautrup Park. It's been… an experience. The hotel was fine. Functional. A place to lay my head.
- 12:00 PM: Headed to the airport. Reflecting on the trip. I did it! I survived Copenhagen.
- 1:00 PM: Airport. The final descent into reality.
Quirks, Observations, and (Mostly) Honest Feelings:
- Danish People: Supremely stylish. They bike everywhere. They tolerate me.
- The Weather: Chilly. Prepare for it.
- The Food: Delicious, but pricey. Budget accordingly, or resign yourself to a diet of bread and despair.
- The Lautrup Park Hotel: Fine. No complaints. I mean, it's a hotel. It served its function. Nothing to write home about. It was cozy though!
- My Emotional State: Rollercoaster. Euphoria, frustration, cultural overload, moments of pure joy. Mostly good though!
- Would I come back? Absolutely. But next time, I'm bringing better coffee, more cash, and a much better packing strategy. And maybe a therapist.
Okay, seriously, what's the *real* deal with Hotel Lautrup Park? Is it actually… luxurious?
Alright, fine. Let's ditch the brochure BS for a sec. "Luxury?" Yeah, it's got *elements* of it. The lobby is swanky, all gleaming surfaces and that smell… you know, that hotel-expensive-air-freshener smell? My inner cheapskate immediately went into overdrive, calculating the cost of that dang diffuser. But luxury, for me, is more than fancy furniture. It's about feeling *spoiled*. And… well, it's complicated.
One thing's for sure: the beds? Divine. I mean, seriously. I sunk into that thing and didn't emerge for approximately 12 hours. Woke up feeling like I'd been mainlining unicorn dreams and actual, honest-to-goodness *rest*. That alone probably bumped them up a solid point on my imaginary hotel scale.
But then… (and this is where the *actual* luxury comes in…) during my stay, some loud neighbors ruined the peace I was experiencing, and I had to call the reception for help. They were so busy , it took them so long to solve the problem... I found myself thinking, "Okay, so that's not what I expected for my money..." But at the end, they solved the problem so I could finally sleep in peace...
Speaking of rooms… are they actually *nice*? Like, Instagram-worthy nice?
Okay, so you want Instagram-worthy? Depends what you're shooting for. The rooms are definitely *clean*. Pristine, even. Minimalist Danish design, very Scandi-chic. Think clean lines, muted colors, and… wait for it… a Nespresso machine. (That, my friends, is a luxury in my book. Caffeine is love, caffeine is life.)
BUT (and there's always a but, isn't there?)… I got the feeling the design was a *little*… cold. Like, perfectly lovely, but lacking a soul. Almost like the designer forgot to add, you know, humans. My inner slob fought the urge to scatter my belongings everywhere, just to add a bit of *character*. (And maybe a rogue sock or two.)
What’s the food like? Because bad hotel food is a personal tragedy.
Okay, so food. The breakfast buffet? Good. Not "blow-your-mind-amazing," but solid. A decent selection of Continental stuff, with a side of Danish pastries that were, frankly, a work of art. I may have eaten three. No regrets. (Except maybe the slight sugar crash later.)
I will say, I had one experience at Dinner, during one of my stays, it was like a scene from a bad movie. I ordered pasta. I was dreaming of the pasta, you know? A warm embrace of tomato, basil, and cheese? What arrived… looked like reheated something. No! No! My hopes were crushed.
But! The next day, Breakfast saved it. I was there by 7am, the smell alone made me forget the last dinner. The breakfast buffet? The saving grace. Freshly baked bread and delicious pastries. I started to love it even more!
Is the location actually convenient for exploring Copenhagen? Because "near the airport" doesn't always equal "easy to get to the city center."
Okay, honest truth time: It's... a bit of a trek. Yes, it’s near the airport. Great for that quick pre-flight snooze. But getting into the city center? You're looking at a train ride. Not the end of the world, mind you. Trains are clean and efficient. But factor in travel time. It's not like you're stumbling out the door and into Nyhavn. You're going to be dependent on public transport (which is perfectly fine!), and time your trips properly.
So, if your focus is hitting *all* the major tourist spots every single day, maybe consider something *right* in the heart of things. But if you appreciate a little peace and quiet after a day of city chaos... then it's not a bad trade-off.
Any hidden fees or surprise costs I should know about? Because that's my pet peeve.
Ah, the dreaded hidden fees. Let me think… I think I found some. I actually took a look to all the hidden prices. They were not hidden, but the price in the minibar was so expensive.
Also, be careful with the parking! It wasn't the most expensive thing I've ever encountered, but considering everything, I think it could have been better... Okay, you are warned.
What's the vibe of the hotel? Is it stuffy and formal, or relaxed and welcoming?
The vibe? I'd say… *refined, but not aggressively so.* There's a certain level of polish, but it's not the type of place where you'd feel intimidated showing up in jeans (though, let's be honest, I *always* feel slightly underdressed). The staff were generally friendly and helpful, though I got the distinct impression they were perpetually busy. Which is probably typical for a hotel, right?
It’s not a party hotel. Not the kind where you stumble in at 3 am, reeking of beer and questionable decisions. (Okay, maybe I’ve done that before…) More… sophisticated. Think quiet conversations in the bar, people reading books in the lobby. Which, after a long day of sightseeing, can be quite appealing.
Okay, spilling it: Would you actually stay there again?
Hmmm… it’s a tricky one. The beds? Absolutely. Seriously. The food, I'd be careful. And then, the staff... well, I think they could be better. I really think they could improve. The location... well, as long as you're aware of it. But the peace and quiet factor? HUGE. That's a major selling point. And the overall… efficiency? It’s a good hotel.
So, would I? Probably. But next time, I'd definitely be packing snacks. And maybe a miniature air freshener, so my room can smell like *my* kind of luxury. (That’s sarcasm. Mostly.)
