Do you have a question about this home or the local area?

The word “wow” came up a few times when we visited this place… A former coal crane located in Nordhavnen (the old industrial harbour area), it’s an incredibly special place that offers an out-of-this-world experience. Set up for pampered living in exceptional surroundings, it consists of three levels of unique luxury. One with your living quarters – the bed is heavenly. Another with a huge meeting room and bathroom – the bathtubs have some of the best views we’ve ever come across. And two terraces – one for enjoying magnificent sunsets, the other tailor-made for sunrises.

Home truths

    The host doesn’t accept children unless they are over thirteen years old

    The meeting room and spa bathroom can be booked by other guests until 5 pm – after that they will be accessible to you

Nordhavnen still bears remnants of its industrial past, but it’s also transitioning into a new and attractive urban area with lots of personality.

There are big plans in the pipeline for this area (prepare yourself...
