Pros:

We liked here. The location is good, breakfast same. Big room. Air conditioning would have been a plus but otherwise nothing to complain. Room is a little bit old but didn't bother us.

Pros:

We liked the size or our room, albeit facing the street and quite noisy because of traffic and noisy children and teenagers. Breakfast was decent.

Cons:

The rooms are old (furniture etc).

Fantastisk hotel, men mangler aircon
Pros:

Jeg er vild med Grand Hotel. Har boet der flere gange og elsker den gamle bygning, med den store trappe og værelser med ekstra højt til loftet.

Cons:

Værelserne har ikke aircondition, og der er desværre blevet for varmt i Danmark til at det kan løses med en mekanisk blæser. Der var kvælende varmt på værelset, og der lå tykke dyner på sengen.

Exceptional hotel - would stay again in a heartbeat.
Pros:

Great location, lovely old building right in the central quarter and near the main shopping streets and bars / restaurants. Fantastic breakfast, and the dining room was stunning. Real old world elegance and charm.

Cons:

Really nothing - if I had to come up with something, I would say the enormous yellow upholstered armchairs in the room, although comfortable, were out of keeping with the rest of the hotel and looked pretty tired.
