Best Family Hotels in Copenhagen with Family Suites & Apartments
25 family-friendly hotels with family suite in Copenhagen . Handpicked for families who want the best.
Copenhagen hotel rooms are tiny. That's the honest starting point. A standard double in the city centre is often barely wider than the bed, and anyone who has tried to sleep four people in a 16-square-metre room with a folding cot knows how miserable that can get by day three. The good news is that Copenhagen has an unusually deep bench of apart-hotels, serviced apartments, and proper two-room family suites — more per capita than almost any other Northern European capital. Pick one of these and you get a kitchen for breakfast chaos, a washing machine for muddy Tivoli days, and a living room where kids can crash out while parents finish the wine.
Copenhagen is built for kids in a way Paris and London aren't. The streets are flat, bike lanes are physically separated, Tivoli Gardens is in the middle of town, and there's no tipping so a family dinner doesn't trigger the mental math of service charges. Nyhavn canal boats, the Little Mermaid, the Round Tower's spiral ramp, and the National Aquarium are all doable in one compact trip. Distances are small — most families don't need a car.

🛏️Why Copenhagen Works for Families Who Need Space
The kitchen question matters more here than in most European capitals. Danish supermarket staples — rugbrød, skyr, fresh berries, smoked salmon, liver pâté — are genuinely nice, and a Netto or Føtex run is cheaper than any café. We always budget two cook-at-home dinners per week when we stay in Copenhagen apart-hotels, and the kids prefer it because they can graze on crisps and fruit between sightseeing without waiting for a waiter.
Location trumps luxury. Copenhagen's metro is small and the city is walkable, so a slightly plain apart-hotel 5 minutes from a metro stop beats a boutique place 20 minutes out. We rank Østerbro, Nørrebro, Vesterbro, and Indre By (the old centre) as the four family-friendly neighbourhoods. Anything further than a 15-minute metro ride from the Hovedbanegården station starts to feel far with a tired 5-year-old.
Parent's take
What kills a Copenhagen family trip isn't the weather — it's cramped rooms and expensive restaurants. Book a suite with a kitchen and proper beds, and the city opens up. We've stayed in four of the places below across three trips and the single best decision was always choosing space over stars. Thirty square metres beats a 5-star ceiling rose every time.
Our Top 25 Picks
Hotels in Copenhagen with family suite, sorted by guest rating.

Nimb Hotel
Inside Tivoli Gardens, city centre
Wonderful
620 reviews
A five-star boutique hotel inside Tivoli Gardens with 38 suites, a rooftop pool and unlimited Tivoli access for guests. Family rooms face either the park rollercoaster or the Moorish-palace facade.
From
€595/night
Why families love Nimb Hotel
The single biggest reason parents pick Nimb: guests get unlimited Tivoli entry through a private gate, meaning kids can run back to the room for a nap or swimsuit change without re-paying 160 DKK each. Tivoli is essentially Copenhagen's public playground and it opens at 11am. The family rooms above the entrance face the rollercoaster (loud until 10pm in summer) while interior suites face the garden courtyard and stay quiet. Breakfast is lavish but starts at 7am, which matters if your kids are up early.

71 Nyhavn Hotel
Nyhavn waterfront, 5 min walk to Kongens Have playground
Wonderful
870 reviews
A five-star historic hotel in a converted 1804 warehouse at the end of Nyhavn, with family rooms and suites sleeping four. Five minutes walk to Kongens Have park, the largest fenced royal playground in central Copenhagen.
From
€345/night
Why families love 71 Nyhavn Hotel
71 Nyhavn is the hotel for families who want to walk everywhere. Kongens Have (King's Garden) is 5 minutes north and has two separate playgrounds, a giant dragon climbing structure and a lawn. Nyhavn itself is the canal with the coloured houses, loud in evenings but magical at 7am with kids before the tour groups arrive. Family rooms are on the upper floors with harbour views and ceiling beams that kids find fascinating. The hotel has a family-friendly staff who keep a box of kids' books and board games.

Zoku Copenhagen
Amager Vest
Wonderful
4,084 reviews
Zoku Copenhagen is a loft-style aparthotel with a rooftop sauna, steam room, and small gym. The Loft Lofts are purpose-built for families and small groups, with a full kitchen, separate sleeping nook, and proper living space.
From
€888/night
Why families love Zoku Copenhagen
The Zoku Lofts change the game for families who need room to spread out. You get an actual kitchen, a separate sleeping area so adults can stay up after the kids go down, and a fold-out table for takeaway dinners. The rooftop sauna and lounge is one of the most relaxing places in Copenhagen once the kids are asleep, and staff run optional community events that older children tend to find interesting. About fifteen minutes to Tivoli by metro.

Charlottehaven
Østerbro
Wonderful
500 reviews
Charlottehaven is a serviced apartment complex in Østerbro with genuinely large suites — the smallest sleep four, the biggest sleep six. Every unit has a full kitchen, washing machine, dining table, and separate living room. On-site: 18-metre indoor pool, sauna, fitness centre, and a small outdoor play area for kids.
From
€1089/night
Why families love Charlottehaven
Our 10-year-old counted the indoor pool as the best part of the trip and asked to go back. The apartment was bigger than our flat at home. We made breakfast every morning (kids loved skyr with berries) and cooked dinner three nights — probably saved 5000 DKK across the week. Østerbro is residential, quiet, and 15 minutes by metro to Nyhavn. The playground courtyard kept the kids busy for an hour each afternoon while we had coffee on the terrace.

Hypernym Hotel & Suites
City Centre
Wonderful
500 reviews
Hypernym Hotel & Suites is a boutique aparthotel 3 minutes walk from Tivoli Gardens. Suites range from studios to two-bedroom family units with full kitchens, washing machines, and separate living rooms. The property offers babysitting on request and a kid-friendly breakfast buffet with Danish staples.
From
€745/night
Why families love Hypernym Hotel & Suites
The 3-minute walk to Tivoli is what sold us. Kids on the edge of a meltdown? Back to the room in under 10 minutes. Our two-bedroom suite had a real kitchen, a washing machine that got used daily, and enough space for the 6-year-old to scatter Lego across the living room floor. The breakfast buffet is smaller than a chain hotel but everything is Danish and good. Babysitting arranged for our anniversary dinner worked out perfectly.

Admiral Hotel Copenhagen
Nyhavn
Wonderful
2,847 reviews
A converted 1787 warehouse on the harbour, the Admiral keeps its Pomeranian pine beams and adds the kind of quiet service that works for families. The babysitting programme runs through a vetted agency with pedagogy students, and family rooms spread across two levels in the attic spaces. Harbour views from the top floors are the kind of thing kids remember twenty years later.
From
€265/night
Why families love Admiral Hotel Copenhagen
Five stars doesn't usually mean family-easy but the Admiral makes it work. We had a junior suite on level six with harbour views, and our 5-year-old spent each evening counting boats in Nyhavn. The babysitter arrived fifteen minutes early with her paediatric credentials printed out. Breakfast was the weakest point, too refined for a toddler, but the concierge got us a table at a kid-friendly café two doors down every morning without being asked twice.

Andersen Boutique Hotel
Copenhagen
Wonderful
2,085 reviews
Andersen Boutique Hotel is a four-star in Vesterbro, 300 metres from Central Station. Rooms fit a cot comfortably and breakfast has highchairs and baby-friendly options including soft fruit. The hotel keeps a small supply of baby toiletries at reception on request and offers buggy-accessible entry on the ground floor.
From
€274/night
Why families love Andersen Boutique Hotel
We stayed at Andersen with a 10-month-old and it worked well. The room was small but square, with enough floor space to set up the travel cot next to our bed without blocking the door. Staff at reception sorted a cot, a spare blanket, and pointed out the closest pharmacy. Breakfast had soft pears, yogurt, and a fully set-up highchair. Location is 2 minutes from Central Station which we used for the day-trip to Louisiana Museum. For a central Copenhagen hotel with a baby, the price felt fair.

Hotel Kong Arthur
Nørre Søgade 11, 1370 Copenhagen, Denmark
Wonderful
100 reviews
Hotel Kong Arthur is a four-star tucked between two lakes near Nørreport, family-owned and family-friendly in a way that big chains never quite manage. The lounge has a generous board game shelf, the courtyard has loungers, and there is an indoor pool with sauna across the street at the sister property. Compact, charming, slightly old-fashioned.
From
$761/night
Why families love Hotel Kong Arthur
Charming is the word. Old building with creaky stairs, but they have lifts. Rooms vary so ask for one near the courtyard rather than the street. Board games at reception covered our two rainy days, and the staff ran out and got our six-year-old a Danish version of Uno when she asked. Sister-hotel pool ten metres away across the courtyard, which is a real bonus in winter.

Hotel Sanders
Indre By
Wonderful
680 reviews
A 5-star boutique hotel on Tordenskjoldsgade, 200m from Nyhavn and 5 minutes' walk to the Royal Theatre. The only Copenhagen hotel on this list with a tennis court arrangement (off-site partnership, ask reception when booking). Babysitting available, family rooms with separate kid sleeping zones.
From
€4700/night
Why families love Hotel Sanders
Sanders is the splurge pick. The tennis court arrangement is genuinely useful for visiting families with serious tennis kids — staff arrange transfers to the partner club. The hotel itself is wonderful: rooftop conservatory, restaurant that takes kids seriously, and the location next to Nyhavn is the city's prettiest. Bring your wallet.

Locke Copenhagen
Vesterbro / City Centre
Excellent
500 reviews
Locke Copenhagen is a design-led aparthotel a 9-minute walk from Copenhagen Central Station and 12 minutes from Tivoli Gardens. Studios and one-bedroom apartments have full kitchenettes with induction hobs, microwaves, and washing machines. The on-site Paradiso restaurant is properly good — kids eat half portions for 95 DKK.
From
€577/night
Why families love Locke Copenhagen
Locke is the one we'd send friends to for a first Copenhagen trip with kids. The location cannot be beaten: 9 minutes to the station, 12 to Tivoli, direct walk to the old town. The one-bedroom apartment was snug but had everything — washing machine, proper kitchen, double sofa bed in the living room for the kids. The breakfast at Paradiso is the best hotel breakfast we've had in Denmark. On-site laundry costs but is decent.

Villa Copenhagen
Vesterbro, 3 min walk to Tivoli Gardens
Excellent
1,950 reviews
A five-star hotel in the former Central Post Office building, with a 25-metre heated pool, family rooms and a 15-minute walk to Tivoli, Nyhavn and the National Museum. The courtyard is open to kids under 16.
From
€310/night
Why families love Villa Copenhagen
Villa Copenhagen's big-family appeal is the 25-metre pool, which is the longest hotel pool in central Copenhagen and open to kids until 7pm. The Studio Rooms sleep three and the Family Rooms sleep four (with a proper kids' bed, not just a sofa). Location is unbeatable if your plan is Tivoli, National Museum and canal tours because all three are under 15 minutes walk. The one catch: dinner at the restaurant is adult-heavy and loud in summer, so eat early or go elsewhere.

Bryggen Guldsmeden
Islands Brygge, 15 min metro to centre, 5 min walk to harbour playground
Excellent
720 reviews
A four-star eco-friendly hotel on Islands Brygge with organic everything, a small spa and family rooms sleeping four. Five minutes walk to the harbour-bath playground and 15 minutes by metro to Tivoli.
From
€245/night
Why families love Bryggen Guldsmeden
Bryggen Guldsmeden is the budget-friendly pick for Copenhagen family stays at 200 to 300 EUR in peak summer. The neighbourhood (Islands Brygge) is waterfront Copenhagen with the outdoor harbour baths, a big lawn for running around and a proper kids' playground with pirate ship. The hotel is small-scale with a sauna (free, book a slot) and family rooms with bunk beds for kids. You're 15 minutes from Tivoli by metro, 8 minutes from the new Amager Strandpark beach. Breakfast is organic-heavy, which some kids love and some find too worthy.

Numa Copenhagen Nørrebro
Nørrebro
Excellent
500 reviews
Numa Copenhagen Nørrebro is a self-check-in aparthotel in one of Copenhagen's most interesting neighbourhoods. Apartments range from studios to two-bedroom family units with full kitchens, washing machines, and tasteful Scandi design. There's no reception — everything runs through an app, which works well once you're in.
From
€916/night
Why families love Numa Copenhagen Nørrebro
Nørrebro is the kind of area where parents get to feel like they're living in Copenhagen rather than touring it. The bakery on the corner, the Superkilen park 3 minutes away, falafel places that stay open late. Our apartment had a proper washer-dryer and a kitchen big enough to cook in. The app check-in took 5 minutes. One note: no cot provided — we borrowed one from a neighbouring hotel. Worth asking when you book.

Nobis Hotel Copenhagen
City Centre
Excellent
0 reviews
A 5-star design hotel in a historic 1903 building two minutes from Tivoli Gardens. Service is the old-school kind with a proper concierge who will hand your kids plush toys at check-in. Complimentary bikes (adult and child) are stored in the courtyard and reserved when you book a room.
From
€380/night
Why families love Nobis Hotel Copenhagen
The kids were made a fuss of the moment we walked in. The concierge had the bikes ready the next morning and drew the cycling route to Kastellet on a printed map. The sauna, hammam, and cold plunge pool gave us a proper 30-minute break after a long ride while the children watched cartoons in the family room next door.

Coco Hotel
Vesterbro
Excellent
1,800 reviews
A 4-star Brøchner-Hotels boutique on Vesterbrogade, 8 minutes' walk to Tivoli and 4 to the Central Station. Table tennis table in the lounge bar area, plus a weekly free wine tasting in the lobby evenings. Family rooms come with a sofa bed.
From
€630/night
Why families love Coco Hotel
Coco is the slightly hipper sibling to Absalon — same group, more design-y, fractionally pricier. The table tennis is in a quieter lounge area which suits older kids who get distracted by lobby chaos. Breakfast is included and the croissants are properly buttery. Worth booking the family room over a double-plus-cot for the extra space.

Adina Apartment Hotel Copenhagen
Østerbro / Nordhavn
Excellent
500 reviews
Adina sits on Amerika Plads in Nordhavn, a 10-minute walk from the Little Mermaid and 20 minutes on foot to Nyhavn. Apartments have full kitchens with dishwashers, separate dining areas, and balconies. The on-site Storehouse restaurant serves a solid breakfast buffet and kid-friendly Danish classics.
From
€516/night
Why families love Adina Apartment Hotel Copenhagen
We stayed four nights with a 4-year-old and a 7-year-old. The two-bedroom apartment was the size of a small London flat — parents in one room, kids in bunk beds, a washing machine that ran every night, and a kitchen we actually used for breakfast and two dinners. The harbour walk to the Little Mermaid became our evening ritual. Metro to the centre is 15 minutes. One of the few Copenhagen hotels where a family of four can actually spread out.

Hotel Skt. Annæ
Nyhavn
Excellent
0 reviews
A boutique 4-star in 17th-century buildings two blocks from Nyhavn harbour. Family rooms have a mezzanine the kids can claim and the rooftop terrace looks across the red-and-yellow quayside. Free bike rental (first come, first served) means you can be pedalling the harbour path within ten minutes of checking in.
From
€230/night
Why families love Hotel Skt. Annæ
The location is the quietest address this close to Nyhavn you'll find, which matters at 9 pm with tired kids. Staff lent us two adult bikes and a child seat without charging extra, a detail that made our budget work for a longer stay. Kongens Nytorv Metro is a 5 minute walk if the weather turns.

Comwell Copenhagen Portside Dolce by Wyndham
Alexandriagade 1, Østerbro, 2150 Copenhagen, Denmark
Excellent
100 reviews
Comwell Copenhagen Portside Dolce by Wyndham is a four-star out in Nordhavn, the redeveloped harbour district north of the centre. The hotel has a games lounge with board games, an indoor pool, gym and rooftop terrace. Twenty minutes by metro to the city centre. Best for families who prefer modern, quiet and roomy over old-world charm.
From
$288/night
Why families love Comwell Copenhagen Portside Dolce by Wyndham
We chose Comwell for the indoor pool and ended up using the games lounge more than we expected. Board games stacked at reception, comfortable sofas, and the kids made friends with another family in the lobby on day two. The metro stop is across the street so getting into town was painless. Big rooms with fridges. The Nordhavn area is calm, which suited our toddler's bedtime.

Moxy Copenhagen
Sydhavnen
Excellent
1,523 reviews
Moxy's Copenhagen outpost is designed for people who want a family base without resort prices. The indoor play area is modest but genuinely useful, the lobby doubles as a 24-hour coffee and snack counter, and Sydhavn metro drops you in the old centre in twelve minutes. Rooms are small but cleverly laid out with wall-mounted cots and pull-out storage.
From
€118/night
Why families love Moxy Copenhagen
We were worried about the size of Moxy rooms but with a 5-year-old sleeping on the sofa-bed, it worked. The play area off the lobby is small, a few building blocks and a LEGO table, but both our kids gravitated to it every evening. The metro stop is a ninety-second walk and the trains are sterile-clean. We paid almost half what we did at a central hotel the year before and the kids couldn't have cared less about the location.

Excellent
3,245 reviews
The Arne Jacobsen-designed Royal is a 1960 landmark two minutes from Tivoli's main gate. Family rooms are tucked into the higher floors with city views over the lakes, and babysitting runs through the same pedagogy-student agency as Admiral. A 5-star hotel that takes families seriously without pretending to be a resort.
From
€335/night
Why families love Radisson Collection Royal Hotel, Copenhagen
Staying in room 606, the Arne Jacobsen suite, feels like a history lesson your kids might actually remember. Ours spent twenty minutes examining the egg chair before they asked if they could jump on the bed, which we permitted. Tivoli's entrance is across the street and the concierge sorted family passes without any upsell. Babysitting came through on short notice, which surprised me. Breakfast is excellent but splash-zone tight for a 2-year-old.

Absalon Hotel
Vesterbro
Excellent
0 reviews
Family-run 4-star in Vesterbro, a 5-minute walk from Copenhagen Central Station and Tivoli Gardens. The design is cheerful Designers Guild florals and the bike rental desk is in the lobby with a mix of adult bikes, child bikes, and front-mounted child seats. Family rooms sleep up to four in one space.
From
€180/night
Why families love Absalon Hotel
A solid first pick for families who want to ride. Reception handed us two adult bikes and a child seat within ten minutes of arrival, and the route from the front door to Tivoli is one traffic light and a separated lane. Breakfast runs until 10:30 which is the right number with small kids, and there's a help-yourself coffee station all day.

Scandic CPH Strandpark
Amager Strand
Excellent
987 reviews
Scandic Strandpark sits across the road from Amager Beach, which is the closest proper beach to Copenhagen city centre. The indoor play area is one of the best Scandic operates, and the beach itself is a shallow, safe family swim spot in summer. Free shuttle to the centre runs morning and evening, otherwise the metro is a seven-minute walk.
From
€178/night
Why families love Scandic CPH Strandpark
The best surprise was the beach. Amager Strand has proper sand, shallow entry, and lifeguards until September. Our kids spent one full day there, which we never planned. The indoor play area inside Scandic is the largest I've seen in a Copenhagen hotel. Family breakfast works well with a kids buffet at child height. The only catch is distance to central Copenhagen, which is real: allow 25 minutes door to door for Tivoli including the metro walk.

Tivoli Hotel
Copenhagen
Very Good
565 reviews
Tivoli Hotel is a large 4-star beside the central station with a 14-metre heated indoor pool, sauna, and easy walk to Tivoli Gardens itself (the reason you probably came).
From
$500/night
Why families love Tivoli Hotel
The location is hard to beat: 8 minutes walk to Tivoli and next to Copenhagen Central for the airport train. Pool is 14 metres, well-heated, and open to 10pm. Family rooms are basic but spacious. Breakfast is busy on weekends so go at 7am or after 9:30.

Scandic Spectrum
Copenhagen
Very Good
349 reviews
Scandic Spectrum is a 4-star on Kalvebod Brygge with a heated indoor pool, gym, and family rooms for four. The waterfront location is 12 minutes walk to Tivoli via the harbour promenade.
From
$338/night
Why families love Scandic Spectrum
Pool is smaller than Charlottehaven but warmer (29 degrees, good for toddlers). Family rooms sleep 4 comfortably, with a sofa bed partition that works. The location is quiet at night but you have the harbour front for morning jogs. Buffet breakfast is the best on this list.

CPH Hotel
Copenhagen
Good
644 reviews
CPH Hotel is a 3-star near Nørrebrogade with an indoor pool and sauna, simple family rooms, and prices 30 to 40 percent lower than the 4-star hotels downtown.
From
$667/night
Why families love CPH Hotel
The pool is small, maybe 10 metres, but warm and quiet because the hotel is mostly business travellers. Best value on this list for families willing to tram 5 minutes to the centre. Rooms are plain but clean, and staff are genuinely helpful. Book a family room early as there are only a few.
💡What We Learned Booking Copenhagen Family Suites
- 1Book apart-hotels 4-6 months out for July and August. Copenhagen's family-suite inventory is thin and the best-priced rooms (Adina, Charlottehaven, Locke) sell first. Late May and early September have the same long days and half the price.
- 2Pick a hotel with a real washing machine, not just a coin laundry down the street. After three rainy Tivoli days the ability to run a wash at 10pm while kids sleep is the difference between a good trip and a stressed one.
- 3A Copenhagen Card Child (0-11) is free with an adult card — but only at certain attractions. Always check the list before buying. Tivoli is not included. Nyhavn canal tours, Rosenborg Castle, and the metro are.
- 4Supermarkets close earlier than you expect. Netto and Føtex shut around 21:00 or 22:00, and on Sundays some neighbourhood branches close by 19:00. Plan the cook-at-home dinners for nights you arrive back at the apartment by 19:30.
- 5Bring or rent bikes. Copenhagen is flat, bike lanes are separated, and family bike rentals (including cargo bikes with kid seats) are under 250 DKK per day. Three of the five hotels below have bike rental desks or free loaners.
