A short 10-minute drive from Copenhagen’s city center, Park Lane Copenhagen in Hellerup is redefining what a luxury boutique hotel can be. As a proud member of Small Luxury Hotels of the World, it combines Scandinavian calm with French culinary glamour—plus a wellness program that might just become your favorite part of the trip.
When Did It Open?
After years of thoughtful restoration, Park Lane Copenhagen officially opened its doors on January 15, 2025, welcoming guests into a world where Danish design and cultural heritage intersect.
The Story Behind It
The building that now houses the hotel began life as Strand Teatret, a beloved local cinema and cultural hub. Designer Camilla van den Tempel and her studio &TEMPEL led its transformation, preserving original stucco ceilings, chandeliers, and architectural flourishes—while layering in handcrafted wallpaper, chevron wood flooring, and elegant marble finishes. It’s a seamless blend of past and present.
Who Owns and Operates the Hotel?
Park Lane Copenhagen is privately owned and operated by Park Lane Copenhagen A/S, a collective of local investors and hospitality professionals. They partnered with &TEMPEL to steward the design transformation and bring the building’s heritage to life. The hotel is now part of the esteemed Small Luxury Hotels of the World collection, underlining its elevated hospitality standard.
Rooms & Suites: Quiet Luxury by the Sea
From the Hilliger Master Suite (74 m²) with its spacious living area and soft-hued design to the Deluxe Rooms (17–19 m²) perfect for weekend escapes, every accommodation blends minimalist Danish lines with plush textures. Rain showers, Chromecast TVs, free Wi-Fi, and king or queen beds come as standard, along with bathrobes and slippers you’ll want to pack in your suitcase (don’t).
If you’re here for more than a few days, the Two-Bedroom Apartment (85 m²) on the top floor offers its own terrace overlooking Øregårdsparken—a view so serene you might skip Copenhagen entirely for a day.

Dining at Yves at Park Lane
At Yves at Park Lane, Chef Yves Le Lay—one of Denmark’s most acclaimed culinary talents—brings a refined yet playful touch to French gastronomy, elevating it with meticulous Danish precision. Mornings start bright with indulgences like a smoothie bowl of berries, banana, chia, and peanut butter, a poached egg on buttery croissant with hollandaise and smoked salmon, or a freshly baked waffle topped with berries or rich espresso caramel (DKK 85 / ~$12).
As the day shifts to dinner, the menu turns decadent: three oysters paired with aguachile, Nam Jim, and hot sauce (DKK 165 / ~$24), Louisiana-style frog legs with a spicy tartare (DKK 165 / ~$24), or the ultimate splurge—GastroUnika Gold Caviar served with waffles and crème fraîche (from DKK 395 / ~$57). Every plate feels like an occasion, crafted to linger in memory as much as on the palate.
