Comwell Portside is second, five points behind 71 Nyhavn, and it gets there on geography, not a deal. VisitCopenhagen's page for it puts the cruise terminals at Ocean Quay 2.2 km away, and our road routing makes it about 2.2 miles (3.6 km) — roughly 6 minutes in a taxi with no traffic.
No other hotel we ranked sits on the Oceankaj side of town. From the old town or the station the drive runs about 4.5 to 6.4 road miles, so a Nordhavn bed cuts most of the sail-morning traffic out.
It's a big hotel, 484 rooms, with Restaurant Portside open Monday to Saturday from 17:30 (the kitchen closes at 22:00). On Sundays the à la carte restaurant is closed and only the bar menu runs, 11:30 to 21:00, per Comwell's FAQ, which matters on a weekend embarkation. The garage runs from DKK 38 (about US$6) an hour to a DKK 220 (about US$35) daily cap.
Breakfast is the gap. The buffet comes with Comwell's packages, while a plain rate's terms aren't printed. Book it for a big-ship sailing from Oceankaj, and read the breakfast line before you pay.
Book it if
- Your ship leaves from Oceankaj
- You want the shortest taxi on sail morning
- Dinner downstairs matters
Look elsewhere if
- You want breakfast in the price — Comwell only promises it in packages.
- You want old-town streets outside the door.
- Your ship docks at Langelinie or Nordre Toldbod — the centre is closer.
