Located near attractions such as the Kronborg and Frederiksborg Castle. More or less every room were decorated for Christmas, too mush for my taste! The style is old fashion regarding the interior, but I guess it fit the desired style.
Participating in a seminar at the place we had the pleasure to eat lunch (therefor I do not know the price of food). Food were ok, a lunch buffet, fresh and well prepared. Friendly observant service. Lovely outdoor environment
The castle was completed in 1914 and built by a so-called "goulash baron", a man who knew how to make money as a merchant in World War One delivering food to the belligerents countries.
Overall a good experience.

We visited this hotel more by accident, because it was impossible to find any rooms near our company in the Helsingør - Hillerød - Copenhagen area. It was a nice surprise when we came to the hotel in the afternoon and find out that we had been booked on a small castle surrounded by a big beautiful park. The rooms were nice and clean, but perhaps a little bit too much rococo for a business traveler, but it fitted well into the castle style. You felt more like you were on a nice castle vacation, than on a business trip. We didn’t test their dinner but the menu and the restaurant or the dining rooms looked really good. They also have an outdoor part, a nice terrace with a view over the park, but it was impossible to find the waiter to get a beer, so we were forced to use our own Tuborgs ;-). The breakfast was good with both warm and cold dishes. I think that this hotel is more for conferences and special occasions than for business travelers just searching for a place to hide, but we had areally nice stay.

We had booked what we thought were a “Castle stay” and were utterly disappointed. When we saw the room, it looked like built in the 80’s, which it probably was, as it had concrete ceiling, something to my knowledge not used in the period this hotel is advertised as being from. Actually the whole building was a newer building, not an 18th century Castle. What should make it out for a “Castle” would be the bed, which had some drapes hanging down from it – that’s it. Otherwise the building was like any other conference Centre, nothing justifying the advertised “Castle experience”. Breakfast was served in another building, which were an old mansion and with some very good will could be called “Castle”, but that’s it. The room itself was OK, breakfast also, so for that it is like any other 3-star hotel, but it wasn’t what we were expecting, when booking a romantic “Castle stay”.

Buyers beware!! The hotel manager is aweful as is the service. And they dont want to issue refunds for cancellations and dont even offer rebooking options. Very Ryan air like policies made to withhold refund while not providing the service. There are better options elsewhere. Dont waste your time and good money.

Oh my God!
I have never anything that bad.
My husband and I received a gift certificate as a wedding present for a 'Gourmet stay' including gourmet menu and wine tasting.
The latter turned out to be the most amusing and foolish tasting we have ever attended hosted by a complete idiot of a wine waiter student, who didn't know anything about wine, and who served us an almost undrinkable red from the hotel's vineyard in Rumania.
The following dinner was one of the worst we have ever had with a terrible attempt on 'surf&turf' maincourse as the low point of the evening (dry and way too well done veal filet swimming in a discussting sauce of premade crayfish tails).
The stay ended with a unappetizing breakfast where we discovered mold on the rolls!!!
And when we tried to confront the staff, they were no where to be found except for the immigrant cleaning staff, who didnt know what to do.
We now cherish this memory as the worst 'gourmet' stay of our lives.
DON'T GO THERE....
Afterwards we emailed a long complaint to the management, which we have had no respons to what so ever - what kind of service is this?

I booked this weekend away for my partner's birthday. It was not my first choice from all the castel hotels it there was an offer and my first preference was not available.
I don't think this place can be considered a castle. as the other reviewer pointed out, it pretends to be.
Our discounted weekend rate of DKK1700 or EUR180 came with breakfast and the room. That is all. There was no service apart from the receptionist handing us some forms to sign. We were given rooms in the new extension of this "castle".
It is quite obvious that the owners ran out of money to furnish the place and started scraping furnitures together to start business. The new wing has a weird mixture of danish furniture from the 60s and then some classical old furniture. In our room, there are stains on the pillow. The room looks good at first glance, but then if you go closer, you can see plastic mirrors, energy saving white lights, plastic lamp pretending to be crystal, door knobs from Ikea, plastic flowers and in the balcony, cheap camping plastic chairs and table. For half the price, we didn't get a bath tub. The toilet paper was the cheapest you can find in danish supermarkets. Whoever who furnished the place has very bad taste. The beds are dressed to be grand, but on a closer look you see cheap hooks holding the dressing together. The beds are dressed on top but if you can see there metal bottom while picking up something from the carpet.
The cleaning was sloppy. They took the towels without replacing them.
Breakfast was OK. The plus side is that we had breakfast out in the terrace. But the serving staff were not very helpful. There is a small swimming pool (maybe about 12 m long).
The sitting areas comprise of a tea room, a library with cheap posters framed up, and a weird room with 60s modern danish furniture. The sort you find at danish flea markets.
Pretentious is the best word to describe the place.
Given the nice location, the owners should sell it as a nice down to earth getaway instead of a misleading castle experience. It is nothing royal. I felt a bit ripped off not because it cost a lot but because of the expectations I built up from the brochure and website.
I can imagine this place to be very popular with the danes for functions such as weddings etc.

This is one of a small group of potentially interesting looking hotels in the Danske Slotshoteller group. We booked a 'Castle Holiday' for one night with the promise of coffee and cake and welcoming drink together with a 3 course gourmet meal of 'delicious dishes all made with fresh & seasonal ingredients'.
Arriving at 5pm we were told that we were too late for the welcoming fare but promised free after dinner coffee !
Overall, the experience here was very disappointing. The dinner was of poor quality, the bedroom small and lacking in facilities such as anywhere at all to place luggage. There was a small two channel TV but no telephone. Breakfast adequate.
The cost of this package was 1790DKK - around £200.

Nothing wrong with the accommodations however will never come back since they charged me 35 euro for three cups of black coffee which we thought was complementary to the visit. Such a great way to make your customers never wanting to come back..

Had the pleasure to attended a full-day seminar on a sunny day in June. A cosy place in situated in nice surroundings. The conference room were good with ok seatings as well as the acoustics. The food, lunch, was not overwhelming but adequate. Well cooked and nicely presented.

We stayed two nights and had a Bridal Room in the main building. The room was very small, so small that we spoke with the manager thinking that we were given the wrong room type. However, the hotel manager said that the (pink roses) room was the correct category. The room was a bit worn out but it did have a large bathroom with a clawfoot tub/shower. Both the bathroom and bedroom had windows overlooking the backyard patio and lawn. The indoor swimming pool is on the opposite end of the hotel and downstairs in the newer hotel wing. It's a tiny pool and there is a sauna room. We had dinner both nights in the hotel and the meals and service were excellent. There is one waiter who also checked us into the hotel - he works very, very hard and made our stay a pleasure.
