Ascot Hotel Copenhagen
History
Copenhagen Public Bath House was built at the initiative of a physician named Hjær. It was built in 1901–03 and designed by Gotfred Tvede and Valdemar Schmidt. The groundfloor contained a vestibule flanked by a restaurant and hairdresser's for men and women. The bathing facilities were located in the side wing while the premises on the upper floors of the main wing were let out to clinics. The bathing facilities were divided by gender. The section for women were located in the ground floor while the section for men was located on the first and second floors.
Hotel Ascot opened in the building in the early 1970s.
Today
The hotel is owned by the Hildebrandt Hammer family and has 113 newly renovated rooms. The sister hotel- WIDE Hotel 4 star is located next door with 105 rooms & suites. The two hotels share facilities such as lobby, Josephines Bar, fitness, parking and restaurants.
