Hotel Christian IV

Hotel Christian IV is a small hotel at Dronningens Tværgade 30 on a quiet street in Indre By, Copenhagen, Denmark, close to Rosenborg Castle and the Kongens Have gardens. Dronningens Tværgade is a calm residential-style street in the Frederiksstaden and Nyboder area, noticeably quieter than the main tourist routes yet within easy walking distance of the city's major sights. Nyhavn, Kongens Nytorv, Amalienborg Palace and the Strøget shopping street can all be reached on foot, and Kongens Nytorv and Nørreport stations offer metro, S-train and rail links including the route to Copenhagen Airport. The nearby Kongens Have is the oldest royal garden in Denmark and a popular place for picnics, walks and summer concerts, while Rosenborg Castle, home to the Danish crown jewels, is only a few minutes away. The hotel has an intimate, welcoming character appropriate to its modest scale. Rooms are offered as Small Rooms, Standard Rooms and Superior Rooms, and indicative double-room rates run from about DKK 1,000 to 2,000 per night depending on season. Amenities include wifi and a lift. There is no on-site restaurant, bar, pool or spa, so visitors typically eat at the many cafes, bakeries and restaurants in the surrounding streets and along Store Kongensgade, or at Torvehallerne food market, which is a short walk to the west. The property suits couples, solo travellers and visitors seeking a quiet, good-value base in a very central location, and the compact room sizes in the smaller categories mean luggage-heavy travellers might prefer the Standard or Superior rooms. Reservations are made through the hotel's own website, which is the best source of current availability and rate conditions for the property. Booking ahead is advisable for summer weekends and during major city events, as small properties of this size have limited numbers of rooms and can sell out quickly.
