⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding Family Stay at Hotel Royal We recently stayed at Hotel Royal with our family and had a truly wonderful experience. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the excellent service, warm atmosphere, and genuine care shown by the staff. A special and heartfelt thank you goes to "Miss Marie Sofie Madsen", whose kindness, professionalism, and dedication made our stay unforgettable. When our son unfortunately had an accident during our trip, she went above and beyond to help us arrange medical assistance and ensure that everything was handled smoothly. Her compassion and support during a stressful situation meant so much to our family, and we will always be grateful for her exceptional care. We would also like to recognise the valet parking staff member, who was consistently friendly, professional, and incredibly helpful. His positive attitude and willingness to assist at any time greatly enhanced our overall experience and deserve special appreciation. The restaurant team and management also deserve special recognition. The ambience of the restaurant was exceptional and every member of the staff was welcoming, attentive, and eager to ensure that guests had a memorable dining experience. Their professionalism and genuine friendliness created a warm and inviting atmosphere throughout our stay. The hotel's atmosphere and facilities were excellent. We especially enjoyed the open-bar and lounge area, which created a lovely and relaxing environment. Overall, Hotel Royal provided us with an exceptional stay filled with outstanding hospitality and memorable moments. We highly recommend this hotel and look forward to returning in the future. Thank you to the entire team for making our family feel so welcome!

Hotel Royal is situated within walking distance of Aros, the art museum , the old town , the harbour. But with that it is also in a very noisy area with bars right on the corner of the building with people talking, drinking and being happy ( like they should be) until very late. But if you like us prefer a quieter room around midnight … this is not the right hotel for you.

I would happily return to Hotel Royal in the fall, winter, or spring. The building is charming (the glass-domed restaurant off the the spiral stair case is a dream), and the staff is warm and attentive. Caveat: air conditioning is not as advertised. The room we paid a premium for had a non-functional unit, and when we went to the desk to report the issue, we had to wait behind guests there to discuss their own malfunctioning A/C. We were offered a credit, but the night of sleep was mostly a loss. It wasn’t an ideal experience, but enough was great that the next time we’re in Århus during a season when the probable high is 20° or less, look for us at the Hotel Royal.

A perfect place to stay in Denmark! From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded our expectations. The room was exquisitely designed, impeccably clean, and offered breathtaking views that made our stay even more memorable. The attention to detail was exceptional, from the luxurious soaps and lotions provided to every thoughtful touch throughout the room. Breakfast was another highlight—an incredible spread featuring fresh fruit, sweet pastries, delicious hot dishes, and some of the best coffee we've had in Europe. If you're looking for a beautiful, comfortable, and unforgettable place to stay in Denmark, this hotel is truly a hidden gem. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it!

Very good service. Good breakfast. Very cool old building with lots of nice appointments and charm. Unfortunate downsides of an old hotel: the bathroom leaves a lot to be desired, no door on the shower, obvious water damage and probably mold due to splashing, water pressure only ok. Toilet sometimes gets stuck perpetually refilling and needs to be reflushed to fix it. Possibly the biggest issue depending your sleep temperature tolerance: the air conditioning does not really work cool the room in summer. Set it to 19c and woke up overheated. The room could use some more outlets as well but otherwise it has a good bed, enormous windows, and is overall pleasant. No noticeable problems with noise from outside or other rooms The last photo is the view of Aarhus a 20 minute walk away.
