Lavish 4BR Flat in the Heart of CPH by The Canals Overview
First Impressions
Walking up to Lavish 4BR Flat in the Heart of CPH by The Canals, you immediately get that “I’m staying somewhere special” feeling. The building sits right on Boldhusgade, and honestly, the location couldn’t be better — you’re literally steps from Copenhagen’s famous canals. I mean, when you open the windows on the first floor, you can actually hear the water lapping against the canal walls. It’s one of those four-star places that feels more intimate than a traditional hotel, which makes sense since you’re getting an entire apartment to yourself.
The Space Itself
The flat is genuinely spacious — four bedrooms means you’ve got room to spread out, whether you’re traveling with friends or just want that extra space to feel at home. What struck me most was how thoughtfully it’s laid out; each room has its own character, and there’s this nice flow between the living areas. The kitchen is actually functional (not just for show like some places), and you know what? After eating out in Copenhagen for a few days, having the option to grab groceries and cook something simple is pretty refreshing. The whole place has this modern Scandinavian vibe without feeling sterile — there are personal touches that make it feel lived-in rather than hotel-generic.
Canal-Side Location
Here’s the thing about staying right by the canals — it puts you in the absolute heart of Copenhagen’s charm. You can walk to Nyhavn in about ten minutes, but you’re not dealing with the tourist crowds right outside your door. The neighborhood has this perfect balance where you feel like a local but still have easy access to everything. I noticed couples seem to gravitate toward this area (which makes total sense), and there’s something romantic about those evening canal views. Plus, you’re close enough to the city center that you can walk pretty much everywhere, but far enough away that it actually feels peaceful at night.
Practical Perks
What I really appreciated was how well-equipped everything is — it’s clear someone put thought into what travelers actually need. The Wi-Fi works properly (always a relief), and there’s enough space for everyone to have their own corner when needed. The building itself is well-maintained, and getting to the first floor is easy enough with luggage. You’ve got proper storage space, which sounds minor but makes a huge difference when you’re staying for more than a night or two. The whole setup just works smoothly, without any of those little frustrations that can derail a trip.
Why Guests Love It
Recent guests consistently rave about the location, and after staying here, I totally get why. It’s that sweet spot where you feel connected to Copenhagen’s authentic rhythm while still being tourist-friendly. The space gives you options — you can cook breakfast and plan your day over coffee, or head out and explore knowing you’ve got a proper home base to return to. For couples especially, there’s something special about having your own canal-side retreat in one of Europe’s most walkable cities. It’s the kind of place that makes you feel like you’re living in Copenhagen rather than just visiting it.
Early hotels booking in Copenhagen secures opera house terrace seats, canal cruise departures, and bike tour slots.


Reviews of Lavish 4BR Flat in the Heart of CPH by The Canals
Matthew from United Kingdom – 27 February 2025 (9/10)
The apartment was clean, warm, spacious and very well equipped. Its location was ideal to explore Copenhagen.
What could be improved: It was fine for a family holiday, but the kitchen and bathroom were accessed through one of the bedrooms, so it wouldn’t be ideal if it was being shared by couples.Niklas from Finland – 8 December 2024 (8/10)
Magnificant location. Close to everything.
What could be improved: Only one toilet/bathroom for 8 persons is NOT ENOUGH! Also a problem that You have to walk THROUGH the biggest bedroom to get to the bathroom.Emma from United Kingdom – 5 December 2024 (8/10)
Great location, within walking distance of the city centre as well as main sights and attractions. There were plenty of bars and restaurants nearby and the apartment was nice and warm. We travelled with a baby and previous reviews stated the cot was in the hallway however it had been put into a bedroom on our visit which was great
What could be improved: On arrival all dirty bedding and rubbish had been left directly outside the door which made it difficult to get up the stairs and into the apartment with a baby and all our luggage.
Small bedroom with bunk bed, beds were uncomfortable despite all the other beds being very comfortable.
No microwave in the kitchen to sterilise baby bottles and could not find any cutlery, despite the kitchen being equipped with loads of other kitchenwarePutman from United States – 22 November 2024 (9/10)
Location, easy access
What could be improved: Only one bathNadine from Switzerland – 4 August 2024 (9/10)
Access to the apartment using a digital lock, no keys – very comfortable.
The location of the apartment is really great.
There is a café in the basement, great for breakfast.
What could be improved: Only one very small bathroom for 4 rooms so potentially 8 personBryan from United Arab Emirates – 20 July 2024 (7/10)
Location is excellent, could not be better located. Lovely cafe outside the front door with the best coffee in Copenhagen
What could be improved: Layout of the property leaves you walking through a bedroom to the kitchen and bathroom. Bathroom is just too small.Laura from United Kingdom – 12 July 2024 (7/10)
The property is in an amazing location and within walking distance of most things. The property was decorated nicely and had most of what we needed with fresh bedding and towels. It was clean when we arrived and easily accessible.
What could be improved: One of the rooms (with the bunk beds in) is more of a cupboard and very cramped/hot.
The mattresses on the beds were a little on the thin side and therefore a little hard.
From about 5am every morning there was a lot of noise which sounded like bins being dragged about which disturbed us every morning.
The bathroom and kitchen is only accessible by going through one of the bedrooms and this disturbed whoever stayed in that room.Winslow from Canada – 30 May 2024 (8/10)
No breakfast . Location excellent
What could be improved: Not the properties fault but the road work was awfully noisy early in amIain from United Kingdom – 8 April 2024 (8/10)
Fantastic Location, clean, spacious and comfortable.
What could be improved: I think the apartment could be rearranged to introduce a second bathroom. It may be at the expense of the small bedroom but would make it so much more attractive.Jamie from United Kingdom – 29 June 2023 (9/10)
Location and cleanliness
What could be improved: Key code is abit hit and miss
