Kings Garden 1 by Daniel&jacob’s Overview
First Impressions
Walking up to Kings Garden 1 by Daniel&jacob’s, you immediately sense you’ve found something special in Copenhagen’s historic core. The building sits right on Sjæleboderne — honestly, one of those charming cobblestone streets that feels like stepping back in time. This four-star property doesn’t try to overwhelm you with flashy lobbies or grand gestures, but there’s an understated elegance that hits just right. The entrance feels intimate, almost residential, which I actually prefer to those massive hotel complexes where you feel like just another room number.
Location & Neighborhood
Here’s the thing about staying at Kings Garden 1 by Daniel&jacob’s — you’re literally in the heart of everything that matters in Copenhagen. I mean, we’re talking about a location score of 9.8, and honestly, that feels about right. You can walk to Nyhavn’s colorful houses in maybe ten minutes, and the Round Tower is practically around the corner. What I love most is how you’re close enough to all the tourist spots but tucked away on a quieter street where you actually get some peace. The neighborhood has that perfect mix of local cafés and historic charm — you know, the kind of area where you’ll stumble across a great little bakery just by wandering around.
The Rooms
The accommodations here strike that sweet spot between modern comfort and Danish design sensibility. You’ll find clean lines, thoughtful touches, and — this matters more than people realize — really good blackout curtains for those bright Nordic summer nights. The rooms aren’t huge by American standards, but they’re well-designed with smart storage solutions that actually work. What impressed me most was the attention to detail in the bathrooms and the quality of the linens. It’s clear that Daniel&jacob’s (whoever they are) put thought into making guests comfortable rather than just filling rooms with generic furniture.
The Copenhagen Experience
Staying here gives you that authentic Copenhagen feeling without sacrificing comfort. The staff genuinely knows the city — not just the obvious recommendations but the kind of local insights that make a difference. They’ll point you toward the best spots for smørrebrød or tell you which museums are worth your time versus which ones you can skip. I particularly appreciated how they understand the rhythm of the city — when to visit Tivoli, how to avoid the cruise ship crowds at the Little Mermaid, that sort of thing. It’s the difference between feeling like a tourist and feeling like you’re actually experiencing Copenhagen.
Why Guests Love It
There’s a reason couples rate this place so highly for romantic getaways — it has that intimate, boutique feel that makes you want to linger. The combination of the prime location, thoughtful service, and that distinctly Danish approach to hospitality creates something memorable. You’re not just staying in Copenhagen; you’re staying in a place that feels connected to the city’s character. Plus, with an 8.9 rating, it’s clear that Kings Garden 1 by Daniel&jacob’s consistently delivers on its promises. It’s the kind of hotel where you’ll find yourself planning your next Copenhagen trip before you’ve even checked out.


Reviews of Kings Garden 1 by Daniel&jacob’s
John from United States – 24 July 2024 (9/10)
The information provided about the property was possibly the best we have seen. An online concierge package gave videos, restaurant recommendations, complete check in/out procedures and the communication from them was timely and proactive. The property itself was as expected. So nice for each of us to have private space, comfortable beds and two bathrooms. Location was very good.
What could be improved: Even though the stair climb was mentioned it was a lot! It was more stairs than expected and they were steep. A little frustrating when rounding the non-working elevator while climbing. That said, the unit was nice and would not deter us from recommending or staying again.Tabitha from United States – 10 July 2024 (9/10)
The location cannot be beat! The property was incredible and giant – especially for something in the middle of the city with charm and character. The property had such a great flow and was really amazing.
What could be improved: There is no elevator and it is four flights up. Keeps us in shape.Tina from United Kingdom – 4 June 2024 (9/10)
Very centrally located, spacious, extremely comfy beds and having 2 bathrooms was helpful for a group.
The furnishings and facilities were of good quality and added to our enjoyment of the accommodation.
What could be improved: The elevator was out of order and the apartment is on the top floor. It would have been helpful if you had told us in advance as one person in the group struggles with her mobility.
As it is centrally located, it is noisy. We had all the windows open at night and you can hear music, people and general city life! Not a huge problem for us but might be for others/young families.Igor from Serbia – 16 January 2024 (9/10)
Komfor, udobnost, raspored, koncept, lokacija…Briga o gostima od strane tima By The Garden 1- Into This Place!

What could be improved: The water pressure in the shower rooms was poorRené from Germany – 22 September 2023 (9/10)
The combination of the location, number of rooms for a group and the fair price
What could be improved: NothingIlana from Israel – 27 July 2023 (9/10)
Spacious yet home feeling for 6 of us. nice design. Great location. Quiet area yet close to center and a step from the park.
We enjoyed staying in . Rooms and beds very comfprtable and clean.
What could be improved: Would have been nice to have washing machine. It didnt state there is but would make it perfect to have one. Hot water stream wasnt very goodWanthida from Thailand – 26 July 2023 (8/10)
Spacious and clean apt with elevator
What could be improved: The shower water is so weak …take a bit of time to shower especially if you hv long hair.Aleksandra from Ireland – 20 June 2023 (9/10)
Lovely, spacious apartment nested in the university side of the city, close to the public park and all amenities. Having this private space to ourselves, 2 bathrooms- great for multiple people (5) staying!
What could be improved: Initially some trouble with the dishwasher, we got it going in the end… 😉
