Architecture & Design

Gert Wingårdh and Wingårdh Arkitekter

Interiors by Gert Wingårdh and Wingårdh Arkitekter

The historic building on Niels Brocks Gade 1 is being transformed into a cutting edge contemporary luxury hotel by Wingårdh Arkitekter, Sweden’s most celebrated architectural firm, under the leadership of star architect Gert Wingårdh, who previously designed the interiors of Miss Clara Hotel in Stockholm for Nobis Hospitality Group, opened in 2013.

“It’s a privilege to work with this fantastic building in such a great location,” says Gert Wingårdh. “Danish classicism, which this building is a fine example of, is something special — most sophisticated, more stripped down than that in Sweden. In the main building, we’ve been delicate and respectful, emphasizing every detail of the original architecture and decor, adding superior quality natural materials such as various marbles, stone, wood and glass, with a subtle color scale, accentuated with beautiful deep greens.”

“With the attached annex building from the 1960s, where the Restaurant NOI is, we’ve allowed ourselves more architectural liberty,” Wingårdh adds. ”In the rhythm of the signature glass façade, we’ve been inspired by Le Corbusier’s La Tourette Dominican monastery from the late 50s, with its boldly elegant lines. I think there is something of a connection between this style of updated late 50s modernism and turn-of-the- 20th-century classicism.”

In the interior design of Nobis Hotel Copenhagen, Wingårdh Arkitekter has worked with a set of core values important to Nobis Hospitality Group. Authenticity, honesty, quality, care and richness in detail are some of these key virtues. The building’s imposing sense of space and elaborate, elegant detailing give the interiors a natural grandeur.

Rooms and Suits

Nobis Hotel Copenhagen offers 75 rooms and suites, set within a historic 1903 landmark once home to the Royal Danish Academy of Music. Each room blends classic Danish architecture with modern Scandinavian design, shaped by Wingårdh Arkitekter

The 75 rooms and suites are distributed across four floors, with views overlooking either the city streets or the courtyard.

Our 38 Superior Rooms are 18 sqm (193 sq ft) and located from the ground to the second floor. On the third floor, we have 10 cozy Superior Loft Rooms with sloping walls.

Our 14 Deluxe Rooms are 22 sqm (236 sq ft) and situated from the ground to the third floor.

We have 6 Junior Suites of 40 sqm (430 sq ft), all positioned on the building’s corners. These suites have a lounge area and known for their bathrooms, fully decorated in Italian Bardiglio marble from floor to ceiling.

On the third floor, our 4 Junior Loft Suites offer the same suite experience but with sloping ceilings that create a more intimate “hygge” and authentic Copenhagen apartment feel.

Our 2 Penthouse Suites, each 98 sqm (1,050 sq ft), are located on the fourth floor with views overlooking some of Copenhagen’s most important landmarks: Glyptoteket, Tivoli Gardens and City Hall. Both Penthouse suites has access to a complete Superior Room connected below on the third floor.

Our grand Nobis Suite is 91 sqm (980 sq ft) and located on the second floor. The suite is designed as one large, open space, with a custom wardrobe subtly dividing the living area from the bedroom.

It features a spacious bathroom in Bardiglio marble and two toilets. The Nobis Suite has four large windows overlooking the city and the Glyptoteket.

The rooms and suites at Nobis Hotel Copenhagen combine historic Danish classicism with contemporary Scandinavian design.

Natural materials such as marble, stone, wood, leather and glass are used throughout the hotel, chosen for their quality and ability to age gracefully over time. Nordic design classics are combined with selected European design brands and bespoke furniture, lighting and textiles designed exclusively for Nobis Hotel Copenhagen, creating interiors that feel personal, comfortable and timeless.

Restaurants and bars

Restaurant NOI

Restaurant NOI is the gastronomic heart of Nobis Hotel Copenhagen, seating 80 guests in an informally elegant dining room designed by Wingårdh Arkitekter under the leadership of Gert Wingårdh. The restaurant is housed in the hotel’s 1960s annex on Niels Brocks Gade, distinguished by a glass and copper façade inspired by Le Corbusier’s La Tourette monastery.

The cuisine at NOI is elegant and comforting, rooted in the European kitchen and interpreted through the team’s own contemporary approach. The menu changes seasonally and is built around carefully selected ingredients, with a clear focus on local sourcing and trusted producers.

NOI’s wine list is carefully selected to appeal to both everyday wine drinkers and dedicated enthusiasts. While the selection is rooted in classic wine regions and producers, NOI also embraces a more contemporary approach — exploring new expressions and lesser-known labels, always with a clear focus on quality.

NOI offers a composed, welcoming atmosphere shaped by considered lighting, music and personal service. The restaurant attracts both hotel guests and Copenhagen locals, positioning NOI as a destination for dinners, social gatherings and after-work occasions.

The name NOI means “we” in Italian and echoes the Latin word nobis, meaning “us” — a subtle reference to togetherness and shared experience.

The Marble Bar

The Marble Bar is located within Restaurant NOI at Nobis Hotel Copenhagen and serves as a natural extension of the hotel’s social atmosphere. Wrapped in black marble from floor to ceiling, the bar combines strong architectural lines with a calm and comfortable setting, shaped by soft lighting, reflective surfaces and carefully selected Scandinavian furniture.

The cocktail menu is rooted in craftsmanship and precision, with a focus on modern classics, seasonal ingredients and carefully curated locally produced spirits. Scandinavian influences run throughout the menu, with several cocktails featuring locally produced spirits alongside a selection of Danish beers.

The Marble Bar attracts both hotel guests and Copenhagen locals, creating a relaxed yet energetic atmosphere throughout the evening. Whether for an aperitif, a late-night cocktail or informal gatherings, the bar offers a more intimate and leaned-back experience in the heart of Nobis Hotel Copenhagen.

Relaxation Area & Fitness

Nobis Hotel Copenhagen offers a private relaxation area reserved exclusively for hotel guests. The relaxation area is defined by floor-to-ceiling grey marble, creating a calm and monolithic experience. ​ The relaxation area includes a dry sauna, cold-plunge pool and a warm marble stone designed for recovery and relaxation after a day in the city.

The atmosphere is quiet and understated, offering guests a moment of calm in the center of Copenhagen.

Next to the relaxation area, guests have access to a well-equipped fitness studio featuring training equipment suitable for both strength and cardio workouts.

Gateaway to the city - central location in the Danish capital

Nobis Hotel Copenhagen is located on Niels Brocks Gade, next to Tivoli Gardens and Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek, in the historic center of the Danish capital. Positioned just off H.C. Andersens Boulevard, the hotel is within walking distance of Copenhagen Central Station, City Hall Square, Strøget and some of the city’s leading cultural institutions, restaurants and shopping streets.

The neighborhood combines historic architecture, museums and canals with cafés and design boutiques.

Guests staying at Nobis Hotel Copenhagen have direct access to both the cultural and social rhythm of the city, while the hotel’s location offers a calm base with easy access to Copenhagen’s different neighborhoods — from trendy Vesterbro and the waterfront at Islands Brygge to the busy inner city.

Copenhagen is internationally recognized for its gastronomy, design and quality of life. From the hotel, guests can explore the city by foot or bicycle, discovering everything from Michelin-starred restaurants and contemporary cocktail bars to fashion, art and Nordic architecture.

The concierge team at Nobis Hotel Copenhagen offers carefully selected recommendations, connecting guests with both established destinations and local favorites across the city.

About Nobis Hospitality Group

Alessandro Catenacci is the driving force behind many of Stockholm’s top restaurants, nightclubs and hotels. His Italian name may reveal his Roman origins, but a distinctly Scandinavian sense of luxury is obvious in everything Catenacci does. Most of all he hopes to offer guests places where they can feel as comfortable and humbly selfassured as he is. “I sometimes look at myself in the mirror and think, ‘Am I really good at anything, or was it just luck’?”

Back in 1987, Catenacci bought the Stockholm-based restaurant empire belonging to Scandinavian culinary great Tore Wretman - including Café Opera, Operakällaren, the Riche, and Stallmästaregården. This savvy purchase became the launching point for what now includes seven top-tier hotels in addition to the restaurants and nightspots. Catenacci’s ease makes his success look as if luck were indeed a factor, but it is actually the result of a long-term vision, hard work, and an intuitive business sense.

His company, the Nobis Group, has grown consistently over the more than two decades that have passed since that smart deal was made. The conglomerate’s philosophy, in many ways, combines the best of Catenacci’s Italian heritage - a heady approach to fine food and a keen eye for quality - and the utmost in Scandinavian understatement. ​
