Small but brimming with character, this historic fourth-floor home has tonnes of charming details. We love the exposed wall timbers and creaky wooden floors. The nature of the building comes at a price – climbing up the uneven and low-ceilinged staircase isn’t for the faint-hearted. This is worth it for the silence the distance from the busy street creates, providing a super calm atmosphere, right in the centre of Copenhagen. Parallel to Strøget (the famous shopping street) and Gråbrødretorv, this home is bang in the action.

Home truths

    The bedroom is on the small side with a tiny double bed – you’ll have to cuddle up

    This home doesn’t have a lift, so you’ll need to climb the sixty steps up to the flat with your bags

    The water heater is in the bedroom – it’s not the most visually pleasing addition to the space

    There isn’t any air conditioning, so it can get a bit warm even though the windows let a good breeze through the home

About Gammel Strand

Gammel Strand and the surrounding area is the oldest in Copenhagen - and legend also has it that it’s one of the sunniest spots in Copenhagen. Located on the side of the scenic Slotsholmen Canal, Gammel Strand stands as a calming antidote to the hustle and bustle of the nearby Strøget, Copenhagen’s busiest shopping street. Unfortunately, few of the original structures on Gammel Strand and nearby Magstræde and Snaregade survived...
