Sanders Haven – Lovely Two-Bedroom Apartment In Historical Copenhagen

Sanders Haven – Lovely Two-Bedroom Apartment In Historical Copenhagen Overview

First Impressions

There’s something about arriving at Sanders Haven – Lovely Two-Bedroom Apartment In Historical Copenhagen that immediately feels different from checking into a regular hotel. You’re not walking into a lobby with a front desk and a queue — you’re stepping into a proper apartment in one of the most storied parts of the Danish capital. It feels lived-in, in the best possible way. The kind of place where you actually want to spend time rather than just sleep.

Location & Neighborhood

Honestly, the location is where this place really earns its reputation. With a location score of 9.5, it sits right in the historical heart of Copenhagen — and I mean that literally, not in the vague way travel descriptions usually do. You’re within easy walking distance of Nyhavn, the canals, the old squares, and the kind of bakeries that make you rethink everything you thought you knew about pastries. Couples especially seem to fall for this spot, and it’s not hard to see why — there’s a romance to the streets around here that’s hard to manufacture.

The Apartment

Two bedrooms makes a real difference, whether you’re traveling as a couple who just wants a separate sitting room, or two friends splitting the cost. The space doesn’t feel like a hotel room that’s been stretched — it feels like someone’s well-considered home. You get that sense of settling in rather than just passing through, which is sort of the whole point of renting an apartment over a standard room. It’s a four-star property, and the quality shows in the details without ever feeling overdone.

The Experience Day-to-Day

What I appreciate about staying somewhere like this is the rhythm it gives your trip. You can grab groceries from a nearby shop, make coffee in the morning without hunting down a café, and come back in the afternoon without feeling like you’re intruding on a hotel’s schedule. Copenhagen is a city that rewards slow exploration — the kind where you wander without a plan and end up somewhere genuinely interesting. Having a proper base to return to makes that kind of travel so much easier.

Why Guests Love It

The overall rating sits at 8.9, which for an apartment-style property in a competitive city like Copenhagen is genuinely impressive. Guests — particularly couples — consistently rate it highly, and I think that comes down to a combination of the location and the feeling of having your own space in a city that can otherwise feel expensive and a little impersonal. It’s not trying to be everything to everyone. It knows what it is — a well-placed, well-appointed apartment in a beautiful old city — and it does that really well. If you’re planning a trip to Copenhagen and want something that feels a bit more personal than a standard hotel stay, this is the kind of place worth booking early.

  Best for the family. 2 bed appartment Can fit 6 people easily. 2 sofa cum beds in lounge were very useful. Excellent Heating in minus tempratures Managment support was extraordinary. I requested for ealy check in due to a morining flight, and they allowed me at 12 noon instead of 4 pm in just a single call . Strong followup by the staff through emails. You name any thing and they have provided in the appartment. Lift is execellet till 5th floor. Area is the best , very happening but appartment in a calm place. Instructions to reach and staff follow up made it really easy.

  Just add large viper in bathroom.1

• Stephen from United Kingdom – 4 September 2024 (8/10)

  The location was fantastic – very central on Nyhavn with access to restaurants and bars and easy to walk to central shopping area, but set back so was quiet inside the apartment. Very nice apartment which matched the photos.
  
  What could be improved: The sofa could do with either a deep clean/replacing as is very stained. The apartment could also be improved with some bedside tables, but not really a big issue.

• George from United States – 18 May 2024 (9/10)

  Location was incredible and the apartment was as beautiful as expected.

• Aisling from Australia – 16 March 2024 (9/10)

  Incredible apartment in a very central location to Nyhavn – accessible just off Nyhavn at number 31, ignore Google Maps that will try and take you to a side street!
  
  Very helpful staff at Sanders as well, thank you Peter and Michael!

• Devinder from Australia – 23 January 2024 (9/10)

  The cafe as well as the union cafe were superb

• Leonardo from Argentina – 18 January 2024 (9/10)

  We stayed with my wife and son. The accommodation is exceptional. It's like living in a postcard of Copenhagen. The location is ideal and it is very well equipped. It has a washing machine, dishwasher, toaster, oven, stove, and everything you need. The beds are comfortable. The heating is very good. It is very spacious, cozy and clean. Despite being in the most touristy area, it is very quiet. The host is always attentive and answers quickly. Without a doubt we would stay here again.
  
  What could be improved: It doesn't have a microwave. It offers an espresso machine that uses Nespresso capsules in a format that is not easy to find in supermarkets. They leave some capsules available, but not enough for every day. The only way we found to buy them is through a link from the company. I would add an alternative way of making coffee or a regular capsules machine. It would be nice to have nightstands in the main room.
