If there’s one city that’s guaranteed to deliver on the elegant boutique hotel front, it’s Copenhagen — and this 118-room spot in the city’s old Latin Quarter is the best example. With interiors by Danish designer and architect Morten Hedegaard, hotel SP34’s aesthetic is welcoming but understated, with a mostly neutral palette, minimalist furnishings and a nod to Mid-Century modern design influences. Click through to check it out.
Huge windows flood one of hotel SP34’s “Dobblet Superior” rooms (the fanciest of their double-occupancy options) with light — and uses views to the pretty architecture outside. floor to ceiling drapery calls attention to the high ceilings, but also serves a functional purpose, blocking out light for undisturbed lie-ins.

This eminently Instagrammable vignette turns one corner of the room into a chic spot to relax, pre-dinner, or to catch up on emails if you’re a service traveler. The chair’s frame is a cool nod to Hans Wegner’s famous Folding Chair, often referred to as the rope chair.

Warm wood tones, caramel-hued leather and a few pops of burnished orange give the hotel’s lobby and lounge bar a cozy, welcoming atmosphere. (Important tip: get hold of a complimentary glass of “good red wine” from this bar every day between 5 p.m. and 6 p.m. Cheers!)

In the library lounge, warm wood tones are everywhere. Modular built-ins supply ample space for display; some shelves feature lush plants, which break up the expanse of wood without feeling jarring.
