The First Hotel Grand Odense is a hotel with an impressive history dating back to the late 19th…read morecentury. Over the decades, it has been expanded and modernized, giving the building a unique blend of historic charm and contemporary comfort. However, the various additions and renovations have resulted in somewhat long and cumbersome pathways within the hotel, as well as an inconsistent look and feel--a minor drawback that also contributes to the hotel's character. Room & Amenities My room was spacious, featuring a comfortable couch and a safe. Unfortunately, there was no refrigerator, which would have been practical for longer stays. The bed was very comfortable and inviting for relaxation. However, the lack of air conditioning was an issue: with the high temperatures during my stay, the room became quite warm. To make matters worse, one window could not be opened--and it wasn't repaired during my stay--limiting ventilation and exacerbating the heat. Breakfast & Service The continental breakfast was a highlight: a generous buffet in a beautiful, historic dining room with a good selection of local specialties. The only downside was the single coffee machine, which led to short waits during peak times. The service was consistently friendly and helpful--from the quick check-in and check-out to the small attentions throughout my stay. The staff made my experience pleasant. Location & Surroundings The central location of the hotel is ideal for exploring Odense. However, it was a bit noisy on the weekend due to the open windows (and the lack of air conditioning), as the street in front of the hotel is quite lively. A clearly marked unloading zone for guests with luggage would have been helpful, as it wasn't immediately obvious where to find it. Leisure Facilities The fitness center was decently equipped, though towels and a drink dispenser would have enhanced the comfort. Conclusion: First Hotel Grand Odense is a charming hotel that impresses with its historic atmosphere, central location, and excellent service. A few minor issues--such as the lack of air conditioning, the broken window, or the long corridors--slightly detract from the overall experience but are not enough to discourage a recommendation. With a few adjustments, a stay here could be even more perfect.

Very nice hotel that is very close to many things. We enjoyed our 2-night stay. The front desk…read morestaff are exceptionally friendly and helpful. The breakfast is good. We had a couple minor hiccups, but nothing terrible, and they were fixed fairly quickly. We did get warm during the night, however, and the provided fan didn't do enough for us to sleep as comfortably as we would have liked. One little note: At 10:00 on the dot, breakfast is over! They clear the food faster than a sonic boom!

Superb hotel in Odense. Rooms are huge, clean and comfortable. Staff is incredibly nice and…read morehelpful, seriously, best hotel staff I met so far in Denmark. They kindly helped us organise our visit at Egeskov castle. Breakfast is very diversified, we were able to eat a different breakfast every day. Note that breakfast ends at 9:30 which is a little early but still. I used the laundry service, and I thought it was quite pricy, but I guess laundry service is pricy in every hotel (and it was still 4 times cheaper than in Norway). The hotel is close to the train station, and near restaurants and parks. I highly recommend.

I stayed here for 3 nights in April 2018. The hotel is very conveniently located, steps away from…read morethe train station. The rates were reasonable. My room was small, Danish style, but okay. The place is well run and comfortable, with coffee available 24 hours on the lobby level. The staff was great, extremely helpful and friendly. The hotel is right next to the main square and a beautiful park.

Billesgade B&B is the cleanest, tidiest and friendliest place I have ever stayed at! If you ever…read moredoubted the quality of a bed and breakfast Billesgade B&B will totally convince you. A real nice room, access to kitchen and bathroom, more than 100 channels on the flatscreen TV for less than 500 DKK per night is a sweet deal!! And if you opt for the breakfast deal you will not regret. Only 50 DKK per person is a steal:-D. See pictures if you're not convinced:-). The best part is that Billesgade B&B is situated a mere 7 minute walk from the city centre. P.S. Look out for the Danish bikers. They do not brake for anyone:-(

A great place to stay. Friendly owner, great breakfast, nice rooms with all amenities you can wish…read morefor. Only downside is that the walls are thin, so even if your neighbours are quiet, you may still wake up if they use the bathroom at nighttime. This of course because you have a tendency to sleep lightly the first couple of nights you stay at a new place. But indeed not something to complain about. It is just what it is. But overall a very good place to spend the night, close to the centre, free parking if you are traveling by car and cheap. Highly recommended.
