"Best Copenhagen hotel for: connoisseurs of beer and design A part of Copenhagen’s newly developing Carlsberg City District, Hotel Ottilia (named after Ottilia Marie Jacobsen, the Scottish-born wife of brewer Carl Jacobsen) takes over a section of the red-brick former Carlsberg brewery site, pairing the original architecture and listed features of this heritage structure with modern Scandi design. In line with the social concept at each Brochner Hotel, the property’s high-ceilinged reception area, featuring the striking Ottilia’s Spine light installation, also acts as a lobby bar serving coffee, snacks, and drinks throughout the day and hosting complimentary wine and nightcap hours designed to bring people together each evening. This bar leads through to the voluminous living room now occupying the former Dipylon Hall in which white-painted brick walls and original features of the brewery, including the original clockwork, are complemented with modern Scandi furnishings and an inviting fireplace. The hotel’s 155 industrial chic guest rooms, some featuring distinctive circular windows with leather window seats, span the floors above, with the highest-end suites then occupying the site’s original round tower. These floors are topped with the hotel’s restaurant Tramonto Rooftop serving Italian dishes such as pizza in a light-filled space with 360-degree views. An outdoor terrace featuring a small hops garden provides more seating in the warmer months—these hops are used in the creation of the hotel’s own golden pilsner.
