For over 150 years, Tivoli Gardens in Copenhagen has been the city’s hub for pleasure, fun, romance, and bright-light excitement.
With an exotic Moorish design on the outside and Chinoiserie on the inside, the Nimb building at the Tivoli was recently renovated in 2008 into one of the most exclusive boutique hotels in Copenhagen, Denmark, and even Scandinavia: Nimb Hotel (www.tivoli.dk/nimb) .
Nimb Hotel in Copenhagen, Denmark
The hotel’s ultra-modern lobby paired with friendly, white-glove service is the first thing you experience when you enter the Nimb Hotel. It’s no wonder the Nimb was named Scandinavia’s only Small Luxury Hotel of the World and made Conde Nast Traveller’s Gold List within just one year of its opening.
The hotel offers 13 well-appointed rooms, from double rooms to eight large suites. Each is luxuriously decorated with a home-away-from home atmosphere accentuated by warm wooden floors, antique furniture, a wood-burning fireplace, and four-poster beds.
Although the rooms and suites have an elegant, traditional flavour, each also offers modern amenities like Bang & Olufsen televisions, free wireless internet, unique artwork, and oversized bathrooms with beautiful free-standing bathtubs, double sinks, and enormous shower stalls with rain shower heads.
There are two restaurants on the property. The first is the Brasserie, which is known as one of Copenhagen’s best weekend brunch spots. The other restaurant is one-Michelin-star Restaurant Herman, serving up traditional Danish cuisine with an inspired modern twist.
Nimb Hotel also offers Nimb Bar offering drinks, cocktails, and afternoon tea; Vinotek, a wine tasting bar and club; as well as an adults-only luxury weekend brunch option with sparking wine at the Nimb Bar.
Location
As part of Tivoli Gardens, the Nimb Hotel is located at the heart of Copenhagen, right across the street from Copenhagen Central Station. Within a 5-10 minute walk, you can easily reach Copenhagen City Hall, the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek art museum, Stroget pedestrian street, the Danish National Museum, and the city’s Red Light District.
Tivoli Gardens
What began in 1841 as a large garden inspired by the romantic pleasure gardens of Europe and the English, Tivoli quickly developed into an amusement park for city locals and visitors. Soon after, the garden would also include a trading bazaar for Danish products, a concert pavilion, a dance theater, a fireworks platform, merry-g-rounds, amusement park games, restaurants, patisseries, and coffee houses. Today, guests of the hotel can experience this firsthand with complimentary entry to the gardens and views of the gardens from their rooms.
