T Magazine: Feeling For | Old-Meets-New Accommodations at the Hotel d’Angleterre in Copenhagen

Written By Unknown on Jumat, 21 Maret 2014 | 17.35

Sybarites in need of an escape — and a spectacular pool to float in — should consider a visit to Copenhagen's Hotel d'Angleterre. The historic, centuries-old property was completely taken apart and reconstructed last spring, a two-year undertaking that restored many original details, including Art Nouveau cornices, fireplaces and corridors that were originally built wide enough for ladies in crinolines to pass each other comfortably. A vintage framed oil portrait of the young Queen Victoria, painted by Franz Xaver Winterhalter, hangs in the lobby, while a limited-edition Andy Warhol silkscreen of Queen Margrethe II of Denmark sits perched above the reception desk.

The guest quarters offer the same mix of old meets new. All of the rooms feature fluffy duvets and Bang & Olufsen sound systems. Many pay homage to cultural figures. (Don't miss the suite inspired by Karen Blixen, the Danish author of "Out of Africa," which comes with antlers on the wall and chairs upholstered in animal prints.) But the biggest draw is the 2,000-square-foot tile-and-marble pool, a stunning cerulean jewel nestled on the building's lower level, which was unveiled this winter. Part of the hotel's Amazing Space spa, it's a serene retreat for chilling out after taking in a treatment. A tempting choice there is the Nordic Space: a relaxing medley that involves a bath with sea salt, a body wrap and a warm Icelandic lava-stone massage with arnica and rosehip oil, followed by an invigorating facial. To which your body will say: tusind tak.
