25hours announces second Copenhagen hotel
25hours Hotel Company has announced that its second hotel in Copenhagen will open in early 2024. Located in the city centre on the island of Christiansholm, the 128-key 25hours Hotel Paper Island will feature architecture by Cobe and interiors by Stylt Trampoli, the latter having previously designed the brand’s Düsseldorf outpost in 2018. When complete, It will join 25hours Hotel Copenhagen within city limits, slated to open in 2021.
“The only thing better than one hotel opening in a new city is two openings!” says Florian Kollenz, Chief Development Officer, 25hours Hotel Company. “We’re very proud to be working on the new hotel project with CØ P/S, a consortium consisting of pension fund Danica and project developers Nordkranen and Union Kul.”
The project takes its name from the district’s former life as a storage place for the large rolls of paper used by Danish newspapers. More recently, the island has emerged as an urban destination, with the Opera House nearby and a new public park, waterfront cultural centre and promenade all planned.
“At 25hours, food and drink should and must play a central role,” Managing Director Michael End adds. “We’ll be working on Paper Island with both brand new and proven partners. As well as a restaurant and cafe on the ground floor, a rooftop bar is also planned. At the moment, my favourite part is the two house boats in front of the hotel for which we are currently evaluating various concepts, including a sauna and bar.”
Further upcoming openings from the brand include properties in Florence and Dubai, both of which are set to open in 2020.
