Copenhagen’s landmark Skt. Petri Hotel is to be operated by SH Hotels & Resorts under its luxury, sustainable 1 Hotels brand.

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 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 – features views of the Old Town. 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.

SH Hotels & Resorts also operates Baccarat and Treehouse Hotels.
