1 Hotels has begun accepting reservations for the soon to open 1 Hotel Copenhagen, a nature sanctuary set to open in August in the heart of Denmark’s capital.
The property is a reimagining of the Skt. Petri, an iconic hotel in the historic Latin Quarter. 1 Hotels is transforming the space into a 282-room retreat that combines the brand’s trademark biophilic design with Scandinavian craftsmanship, integrating organic textures, reclaimed materials, and native greenery to create an urban oasis.
A commitment to mindful living is reflected throughout the property, from energy-efficient operations aligned with LEED Gold and BREEAM Excellent standards to a garden space that supplies herbs and edible flowers for the restaurant. An on-site bee hotel supports biodiversity and invites guests to connect more deeply with nature.

“Copenhagen is the epicentre of conscious living, leading the world in urban innovation, cycling culture, and green living,” said Barry Sternlicht, Founder of 1 Hotels and Chairman of Starwood Hotels.
“1 Hotel Copenhagen is the embodiment of the city’s commitment to environmental responsibility and wellness—bringing together nature, heritage, and modern design to create a hotel experience that is as inspiring as it is responsible.
“This isn’t just about where you stay—it’s about how you live and how your choices impact the world around you,” Sternlicht said.
“Design is woven into the DNA of Copenhagen—it’s not just aesthetic, it’s cultural,” says Raul Leal, CEO of Starwood Hotels. “With 1 Hotel Copenhagen, we’ve created a space that responds to that tradition, where material choices and architectural elements reflect both Scandinavian craftsmanship and our nature-inspired approach.
“It’s a distinctly Nordic interpretation of the 1 Hotels ethos—biophilic, rooted in place, and inherently connected to the planet,” Leal added.
Centrally located in the historic Latin Quarter, 1 Hotel Copenhagen offers guests prime access to the city’s most celebrated landmarks, including Tivoli Gardens, the Round Tower, Rosenborg Castle, and the Botanical Garden. Guests can explore on foot or by bicycle, embracing the city’s renowned cycling culture. Key transportation links are close by, including Nørreport Station (a five-minute walk), Copenhagen Central Station (a 15-minute walk) and Copenhagen Airport (an easy 20-minute metro ride).
Each of the 252 guest rooms and 30 suites is designed to be a serene sanctuary, with natural textiles and expansive windows that frame the city’s beauty. Bathrooms are outfitted with stone sinks, rainfall showers, and greenery accents, evoking the tranquility of Denmark’s forests. In-room amenities like eco-friendly Bamford bath products, sustainably sourced bedding, and yoga mats round out the brand’s commitment to elevated, conscious living.
Opening in early 2026, Bamford Wellness Spa—created in partnership with Carole Bamford, a pioneer in organic, sustainable, and holistic living—will offer a range of mind-body therapies and treatments inspired by nature. With interiors of oak, stone, and soft lighting, the spa will serve as a deeply restorative sanctuary, encouraging reflection, balance, and renewal.
Reservations are open online for guests arriving from 21 August 2025. See 1hotels.com/copenhagen.
