Axel Guldsmeden opened in 2007, in this beautiful turn-of-the-century building, and is still our biggest hotel in terms of number of rooms. Axel quickly became a pet favourite of the sustainabilty-oriented media and eco-conscious travellers who still want a certain level of comfort and quality, and was the first of the Guldsmeden Hotels to achieve the golden Ø and Green Globe certification. In general, Axel has become the place where we develop and try out

new ideas – and if they work here, we incorpo-rate them in the rest of the Guldsmeden Hotels. If they don´t work – well, we´ve probably had fun trying them out!

We have 125 rooms here, including 2 amazing penthouse suites with their own private rooftop terrace and hot-tub.

And if you have time, don´t miss a trip to the Axel Spa while you´re here – it´s such a beautiful and relaxing space. Or just come down to the lounge and courtyard, we love it when our guests hang out with us!

A wide range of both upcoming and well known wine farm-ers, focusing on sus-tainable farming and organic grapes, allow us to spoil and surprise you with unusual and delicious organic wines. Our cocktails are all based on organic spir-its, fruit juices, herbs and soft drinks from local suppliers, and are a delicate alternative.

VESTERBROVesterbro is one of the coolest areas in the Danish capital, and has been named as one of the foremost hipster neighbourhoods on the planet. Formerly an infamous red-light, working-class neighbourhood, Vesterbro´s turnaround began with the transformation of the old cattle market Øksnehallen into a light and stylish exhibition hall. The whole area around Øksnehallen, the former meatpacking district, is now completely re-invented and abuzz with amazing restaurants, nightclubs, galleries, cafés, green oases and much more – while still maintaining its gritty & urban rock´n´roll feel. Along Vesterbrogade and Istedgade, you will also find plenty of bars, restaurants, and designer stores. And don´t miss Vesterbro´s own food street, Frenchy Værnedamsvej – a gourmet’s paradise with specialist cheese, wine, fish and chocolate shops, as well as cafes and grocers.

Wherever you go, go with all your heart

OUR ARTOriginal art has always played an important part in creating the atmosphere of our hotels. Marc Weinert, as well as being the archi-tect and visual designer of the Guldsmeden Hotels, comes from an artistic background. His father, Knud Weinert s, paintings and collages can be found throughout the hotels - side by side with pieces by established and up-and-coming artists, as well as Indonesian antiques. Most recently, we have acquired a handful of wonderful paintings by Spanish-born Bali resident Mersuka Dopazo Gascón, that light up the rooms and hallways at Babette Guldsmeden.

THE STORy& THE CONCEPT

Sandra and Marc Weinert opened the first Hotel Guldsmeden in Guldsmed-gade in Århus in 1999.

Today, in addition to the now 27-room hotel in Aarhus, the Guldsmeden Hotels group encompasses 4 hotels and a capacity of 350 rooms in Copenhagen, and a 50-room hotel in Oslo. A gorgeous rental villa in Menton in the south of France as well as

a luxury resort in Ubud, Bali, is also a part of the expansion that the Gulds-meden Hotels group has developed over the past decade. From the very first, lux-urious simplicity, happy hostmanship, an unpre-tentious atmosphere and uncompromising sus-tainability have been our guiding stars. Sandra & Marc are still the heart of the Gulds-meden Hotels, and their vision and personality define the atmosphere of our houses. Generosity of

spirit, an eye for comfort and beauty, a strong sense of personal responsibility and enjoyment of the good and meaningful things in life, is what makes the Guldsmeden Hotels so special to so many people – guests, friends, family and colleagues alike.

this is how we clean a room!

OUR GOLDEN RULES - A PROMISE TO OURSELVES & YOU

1. Turn off all lights in empty rooms.

2. Turn off heating when windows are open and then set radiator at 2.

3. Sort paper, cardboard and glass for the respec-tive trash bins.

5. Make sure that you use the correct dosage of cleaning products.

6. Fill trash bags full up, to use as few as possible.

7. Reuse trash bag in room, if possible.

8. Never throw our things that still work – pens left in rooms etc.

9. Never let the water run unnecessarily. Turn off taps when possible during cleaning.

10. All magazines left in rooms are to be collected in the lobby, for use by other guests.

ORGANIC MEAT & COLD CUTSAnimal welfare - of course!

At Mineslund it´s all about interfering as little as possible, as slowly as possible. In fact, the polar opposite of conventional farming. Our

animals grow slowly and live happily, they are only fed what they were meant to eat, and enjoy an outdoor life. In our view, this adds a crucial positive dimension to the culinary experience!

LOVE FOOD HATE WASTERecycling is the new black!

Our day-old dark bread gets diced, honeyed and toasted with almonds for a

delicious and healthy cereal.

Never eat more than you can lift

THE GOLDEN ØThe Ø-label is regulated by the Danish Ministry of Food & Agriculture, and the golden Ø is only given to restaurants with a percentage above 90 in regards to organic produce.

ROOTS & FRUITSALL-ORGANIC FOODGuldsmeden Hotels have always had a preference for organic products – especially those that we eat and drink – and we must admit that we are becoming quite fundamentalist in our old age...

We place great emphasis on healthy ingredients and consideration for seasonal produce. Our joy in all the wonderful flavours that nature has to offer, combined with an innate curiosity, creates a steady flow of culinary surprises, always based on the fundamental principles of sustainability.

Our restaurants are big on flavour - simple and abundant, rustic and delicious, our menu is made up of the highest quality organic fresh ingredients, lovingly grown and bred by a number of small and mainly local suppliers.

Our offerings are always evolving and spinning off into something new, but what never changes is the high quality organic ingredients.

GREEN GLOBEGreen Globe is a 360-degree sustainability cer-tification, that ensures our very best efforts in every aspect of the daily oper-ations of our hotels. The harder it is to achieve, the simpler it is to maintain. This has been our experi-ence. Setting a high bar, and subjecting ourselves to scutiny that leaves no stone unturned, means that we are now at liberty to focus on our good atmosphere and hostmanship, and not worry about whether our efforts have been thorough enough.

OUR GARDEN AT AxelYear round, we love our garden here at Axel – it´s a special room all in itself. Secluded and lush with green plants and flowers, the garden has lots of lounge sofa areas, an outdoor fire-place in the centre, lanterns, cushions and soft fleecy blankets if it´s chilly. The parasols will shield you from rain, and we allow ourselves a little outdoor heating, when it gets really cold. So there´s always an oppor-tunity for a breath of fresh air, and feel your pulse slow down and your spirits lift up..
