location: Central Copenhagen

The Mermaid hotel Copenhagen is located a short distance from the town square. The Mermaid benefits from being both near the shopping streets in Copenhagen and the main tourist attractions, yet still within walking distance to the main station.The hotel has great appeal in the summer time because there is both a courtyard and roof-terrace. From the latter guests can watch the famous firework displays from Tivoli twice a week in the summer.

Adjacent to the hotel is the English style ëJohn Bullí pub which is popular with guests and the public alike and certainly the place to be when any major football matches are on.

The main bistro-style restaurant to one side of the lobby is where guests take breakfast (cold buffet other than boiled eggs). Lunch and dinner are also served here with a Danish menu.Rooms are fairly simple in style but feature all the usual three-star amenities. Although thereís no mini-bar thereís a fully stocked coin-operated fridge by the reception where drinks can be purchased 24 hours a day.

Most single rooms have single beds only and almost all rooms of all types have a shower instead of bathtub. The hotel is certainly a good option for families as there a four-bed rooms (double with two extra beds for children).

This plainly decorated hotel is very friendly and well located making it a good choice for budget travellers and families.
