The Square

The Square

10/10 Excellent
"The Square hotel is excellent in every way. Jamie at check-in and Joselyn's help with a restaurant were impeccable. The location is ideal. The complimentary drinks and snacks were much appreciated. The room was large, the bathroom well-appointed, the bed was very comfy and the balcony a nice bonus. For Copenhagen, it is VERY well priced. I highly recommend!!!"
