3 Bedroom Apartment on the new Nordhavn canals neighborhood Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to the 3 Bedroom Apartment on the new Nordhavn canals neighborhood, you immediately get that “wow, this is different” feeling. I mean, this isn’t your typical Copenhagen accommodation — you’re stepping into one of the city’s most ambitious urban development projects. The building sits right on Sundkaj, and honestly, the whole area feels like Copenhagen’s answer to Amsterdam’s canal district, except everything here is shiny and new. It’s a three-star property, but the location alone makes it feel more special than that rating might suggest.

The Nordhavn Experience

Here’s what most people don’t realize about Nordhavn — it’s basically Copenhagen’s newest neighborhood, built from scratch on reclaimed land. The canals aren’t just pretty to look at (though they absolutely are), they’re part of this whole sustainable urban planning thing that the Danes do so well. You’ll find yourself walking along waterfront promenades that didn’t exist five years ago, and there’s something exciting about staying somewhere that’s still evolving. The area gets an 8.3 rating for location from recent guests, and I totally get why — you’re close enough to central Copenhagen but far enough out to feel like you’re discovering something new.

The Apartment Itself

The three-bedroom setup works brilliantly for families or groups of friends traveling together. What I really appreciated was how the space actually feels like a home rather than a hotel room — you’ve got a proper kitchen, living areas where you can spread out, and those canal views that change throughout the day. The decor is that clean Scandinavian style you’d expect, but it doesn’t feel sterile or cold. You know what’s nice? Having the option to cook your own meals, especially when you can grab fresh ingredients from the local markets and save some kroner for other experiences.

Getting Around Copenhagen

From Østerbro, you’re well-connected to the rest of Copenhagen without being in the thick of tourist crowds. The metro system here is fantastic — honestly, one of the cleanest and most efficient I’ve used anywhere. You can be in the city center in about 15-20 minutes, but you can also explore this side of Copenhagen that most visitors never see. There are waterfront cafes popping up regularly, and the whole area has this sense of possibility that’s pretty infectious. Plus, couples seem to really love it here — there’s something romantic about those evening walks along the canals.

Why Guests Love It

The 8.2 overall rating tells the story pretty well, but what really stands out is how this place offers something different from the usual Copenhagen hotel experience. You’re not just staying in the city — you’re staying in Copenhagen’s future, if that makes sense. The three-bedroom layout means everyone gets their own space, the canal setting provides those Instagram-worthy moments without feeling touristy, and you’re positioned perfectly to explore both the emerging Nordhavn district and traditional Copenhagen. It’s the kind of place where you’ll find yourself planning your next visit before you’ve even left.

Copenhagen’s hotels pair greenhouse lounges, cargo bike rentals, and concierge-led tastings through Torvehallerne.

Reviews of 3 Bedroom Apartment on the new Nordhavn canals neighborhood

  • Michaël from Switzerland – 22 July 2024 (9/10)

    L'appartement est très confortable et suffisamment grand. Les renseignements pour accéder à l'appartement sont clairs et facilitent la prise de possession. L'emplacement est certes éloigné du centre à pied mais l'arrêt du métro est vraiment proche. Cela permet de visiter la ville facilement. En outre, comme il s'agit de l'arrêt terminus de la ligne M4, cela simplifie la gestion des trajets.

    What could be improved: La propreté est une question individuelle mais l'appartement pourrait être un peu plus propre. Mais son état était cependant tout à fait correct. Il manque également un étendage pour sécher le linge si on ne souhaite pas utiliser le sèche-linge.

  • Susan from Australia – 30 June 2024 (9/10)

  • Douwe from Netherlands – 15 June 2024 (8/10)

  • Dave from United Kingdom – 8 February 2024 (9/10)

    Clean and a lovely service.

    What could be improved: Nothing

  • Tommy from Denmark – 1 August 2023 (9/10)

    Det er en rigtig fin bolig med en god indretning, når man er der som familie.
    Det er et roligt område, og man kan trygt færdes der om aftenen.
    Der er kun 3 minutters gang til metroen og busbåden over til Refshaleøen.
    Der er parkeringshus 3 minutters gang fra boligen, og der er mulighed for at holde lige foran døren, når man skal læsse bagage af.

    What could be improved: Jeg syndes at det er uacceptabel, at man skal sende et billede af sit kørerkort til udlejer. Det bør være nok, at Booking.com kan garantere identiteten på dem der booker boligen. Alene på den baggrund, vil jeg ikke leje boligen igen, og det er ellers en rigtig fin bolig med en god beliggenhed
    Der manglede et tørrestativ til de våde håndklæder, når man havde været 4 personer i bad.

  • Sophie from United Kingdom – 25 September 2022 (9/10)

    the property was exactly as shown on the advert, spacious and extremely clean

  • Theo from Netherlands – 3 May 2022 (7/10)

    goede bedden. metro dichtbij. supermarkt op loopafstand. ruimte.

    What could be improved: iets beter schoonmaken. keuken en badkamer. momenteel veel werkzaamheden in de wijk. had wel vermeld mogen worden.
