루스 호텔

A few days before our stay, we knew the weather was going to be bad. We had booked three nights, at approximately $500 per night, prepaid, and tried to cancel. They would not provide a refund, but they did allow us to shorten our visit to two nights. Due to unforeseen circumstances, we drove 7 hours and arrived at 10 pm. The restaurant was closed, but they allowed us to pre-order the duck salad, and the service was nice. But the salad was mostly inedible unless you like hard internal organs like hearts and livers. At 11 pm, they took us to our room, which was in a building three blocks away from the main hotel. We had Room 9. To get there, we had to walk up a steep staircase. Room 9 consists of a small seating area on the bottom, and a bedroom in the attic, accessible by a steep staircase/ladder. We are an older couple, so we asked the concierge to haul our bags upstairs. The bedroom is a death trap for older folks. The corner of the foot of the bed is much too close to the top of the ladder. A misstep in the middle of the night getting to the bathroom would cause someone to tumble down the steep stairs. But it was so late, we were too tired to try to get a different room. The bathroom was another problem. The shower door did not close properly. The hand shower leaked profusely. It was not possible to take a shower without soaking the bathroom floor. The next day the hotel staff moved us to room 5, down the hall. It was lovely, safe, roomy, and comfortable, and all on the same floor level. The breakfast was excellent. The buffet had plenty of breads, yogurt, fruits, cheeses, salmon, etc. Hot food was served a la carte. The eggs Benedict were perfect. The hotel is beautiful.

Excellent small hotel in Gammel Skagen. Outstanding staff that is friendly and efficient. Location is beautiful, a short walk to a lovely beach and dunes. The breakfast buffet was very good and the Dagmar suite was beautifully appointed with a nice balcony with views. Best hotel in Skagen in an unusually quiet location in a neighborhood right near the beach, so good for long walks and there is a small local ice cream place at the beach and a very good small local restaurant called Sømærket within close walking distance as well as a very high restaurant on site.

We didn't stay here but had some warm drinks and desserts one cold, rainy night. After a cold day touring Skagen, we stopped here to warm up and have some dessert one early evening. The main dining room was booked so they put us in a lounge room. It was like having a VIP section just for us. The server was great, he came around just enough to make sure we were happy but not too often. We got an assortment of desserts to share. They were all very delicious, rich, and we were happy they weren't very large in size. The creme brulee had a yummy burnt hard sugar top which we delighted in breaking with our spoons. It was perfect.

A super cozy hotel with a very good restaurant and great SPA. We brought our dog and he was very welcome with food bowls and a bed. The location is good in old Skagen.High standard of accommodation. We will definitely go back.

Great location ambiance service and food. Shrimps not best but rest of shellfish platter exceptional. Kristian the waiter was excellent and put up with me trying Danish. We are a family with 2 children and they had good moules frites. bla bla bla(now i am at 200 characters…)

We went for a late morning coffee with a view to staying for lunch. It was a nice sunny day so most people were outside in the very bare terrace area. It needs some plants to break the space up which looks like an institutional outside eating area rather than an upmarket hotel. We had to go and request service twice. The first waiter said he would bring us a menu . He came and spoke to a gentleman on the next table who seemed to be a friend but totally ignored us 6 feet away. After going to find another waiter we ordered two coffees and a cake. One coffee was with oat milk and stone cold , the other normal coffee was luke warm at best. We had decided we weren't staying for lunch and after 20 minutes our cake still hadn't arrived so we went to pay the bill for the coffees. I commented that I thought the service poor. The guy at the till said he was sorry we felt that but clearly didn't mean it. Disaster!
