Sh Hotels & Resorts to Operate Copenhagen’s Iconic Skt. Petri Hotel
Copenhagen's landmark Skt. Petri Hotel, ranked the #1 Hotel in Northern Europe by Conde Nast Traveler in 2020, is to be operated by SH Hotels & Resorts, the sustainable hotel brand management company that operates 1 Hotels, Baccarat Hotels and Treehouse Hotels, under its luxury hospitality SH Collection.
In keeping with Copenhagen's sustainability status as the "greenest" city in Europe, SH Hotels & Resorts intends to reinvent the iconic Skt. Petri, the first real estate investment in Denmark by global private investment firm Starwood Capital Group, as the first 1 Hotel in Northern Europe at a future date. The mission-driven, nature and sustainability-focused 1 Hotel brand, founded by hospitality visionary Barry Sternlicht, aligns perfectly with the Copenhagen municipal government's celebrated pledge to transform into a fully carbon neutral urban center by 2025.
Centrally located in the Danish capital's historic heart by the 17th-century Round Tower and bordering the lively Latin Quarter, the Skt. Petri's 288 chic modern rooms - including 42 rooms with balconies, a Penthouse Suite with Terrace and a Presidential Suite with Terrace - boast sweeping views of the Old Town. Major nearby attractions include the Tivoli Gardens, University of Copenhagen campus and Christiansborg Palace, all well within walking distance. A grandly proportioned multi-floor lobby leads to a charming outdoor courtyard, shaded by fig trees and umbrellas, offering a refined refuge from the urban flow.
