7.0
"An early 20th-century building turned modern, arty hotel. Ibsens has quite a cool, creative feel with simple but sensibly designed rooms and a convenient central location." Full review
Frommer's
"Although it dates from 1906, the Ibsens is hardly aged—this excellent moderately priced property keeps current by embracing the middle-class Bohemianism of the surrounding Nansensgade neighborhood" Full review

DK Eyewitness
"An ornate, period building with lavish decor leading to somewhat smallish rooms that feel a bit worn at times."
Rough Guide
"Excellent-value perfectly adequate hotel in this otherwise expensive regal neighbourhood of Frederikstaden, overlooking peaceful Churchill Parken and the grassy ramparts of Kastellet."
Star Service
"Nonetheless, this midsize boutique-hotel from the quality-driven Guldsmeden chain is a sprightly spot with a familiar Balinese burr, a signature from this homegrown company." Full review
