Seaside hotel in Hornbæk

Since 1939

Welcome to
Hotel Bretagne

We have done our best to restore Hotel Bretagne as it would have been in the heyday of the seaside hotel, when well-off citizens flocked to Hornbæk, a jewel on the North Sealand Riviera – also known as the city of light.

We have reduced the number of rooms slightly, in order to make all bedrooms en suite and make room for some beautiful, spacious deluxe rooms and suites. So today we have 23 beautiful rooms decorated in the best Gustavian style, most offering views of Lake Hornbæk and the sea. We are delighted to welcome you to Hornbæk and our beautiful seaside hotel in North Sealand.

Rooms & suites

We have two single rooms, 18 double rooms and three large suites with the best views in Hornbæk.

Restaurant & Bar

Enjoy seasonal ingredients in a combination of French and Nordic cuisines

Our restaurant offers a wonderful, panoramic view of Lake Hornbæk. Adjacent to the restaurant is the largest of our three terraces, from which you can enjoy dinner throughout the summer.

Banquets & Parties

We have the setting, the view and the gastronomic excellence to make your party a truly fantastic experience.

An interplay between food and wine creates balance

Have you ever drunk wine that made your food taste better, and vice versa, so that the various nuances and elements combine in tasteful harmony? This is exactly what we are aiming for every time.

We spend a lot of time and energy on finding the right combination. Sometimes a creative approach is required; at other times we need to adjust the dish very slightly in order to achieve perfection.

The important thing is to create a balance: neither the wine nor the food should be too dominant; instead each should complement the other and help to highlight elements and nuances.

Our wine list is always tailored to our menu, but you also have an opportunity to tailor the wine yourself. Our wine list offers a good selection of wines from all over the world, primarily France and Europe (since we like to uphold tradition to a certain extent!).

We hold regular Winemaker's Dinners during the year, in which we typically invite one producer to show off and talk about their specific wine. We have turned this on its head to some extent, in that our Head Chef, Kasper Larsen, then adapts the food to match the wines. 

Given that we traditionally start with the food and then add the wine, this is a fun, exciting challenge for us. If you would like to join us for a Winemaker's Dinner, follow us on facebook, where details of events will be posted.

Meetings & Conferences

We offer several different, all-inclusive meeting packages to suit between 2 and 60 people, and can tailor everything to your needs.

What do our guests say?

  • Way better than expected, absolutely recommend

    Friendly staff, excellent location and views. Newly restored to top notch. Room very nice with ambience, beds excellent. Surprisingly good. We had dinner out but the breakfast was one of the better we've had for years, so recommended (but charging extra for an espresso...). Social areas nice, large terraces, large safe parking, large garden and running/walking trail around the lake accessible direct from the garden. Free bikes and raining gear, even rubber boots to borrow! Short walk to city centre (200m) and harbor/beach (400m).

  • A very cozy overnight stay with excellent atmosphere and dinner

    Spent an evening and night here with some friends. The hotel has been completely restored with excellent taste. The service was excellent from the moment we walked in to the moment we left. the Dinner was excellent as was the matching wine menu. Service friendly and professional. Absolutely worth a stay. The quality-price ratio was good. Certainly to be recommended.

  • A great place to stay in Hornbaek

    This is a really lovely hotel. The rooms are clean and everything feels newly renovated. The location is really nice - on a beautiful lake, just a few minutes walk from the centre of town and the beach. We were able to borrow beach towels from the hotel, which was really handy. The breakfast is similar to other places we stayed in Denmark and seems to vary a bit - it was definitely nicer on our second morning there. Overall, Hotel Bretagne is a great place to stay and I would highly recommend it.

  • Good experience

    Exciting hotel. Small but really nice and charming room. Well-functioning bathroom. A little too impractical with hand soap on tube. Beautiful restaurant overlooking the lake. Fancy and different breakfast buffet. Home-baked bread, very fine decorated yougurt, salmon and small appetizing pans with fried eggs, bacon and sausage.

  • Cool, comfortable and cosy

    My wife and I had a wonderful one night stay with Hotel Bretagne. The old seaside hotel mood in a newly renovated location overlooking Hornbæk lake. Uponnarrival sitting on the terrace with coffee and cake, downtown SPA and a fine dinner with great wines. Rooms cosy and windows towards the lake - nice. Breakfast took our breath away. Perhaps best ever tried. Highly recommendable. On 40 minutes outside Copenhagen in the beautiful spot of Hornbæk overlooking the sea of Oresund.

  • Fantastic hotel, staff, restaurant - everything!

    I have stayed at Hotel Bretagne twice now, and I can not overstate how much of a pleasure it has been. Everything from the rooms, the staff, the food, etc. is just great, and at a very reasonable price as well. Well worth it!

  • Excellent food and fine rooms

    Organized a team event with an overnight stay. Everything is well organized and the staff is very attentive to you needs. Every meal we had was a pleasant surprise...so well prepared and tasty. The rooms were nice and well equipped. Having the lake, the beach and harbor and the plantation so close by made it easy to make outdoor team activities. All in all an excellent trip. I want to go again!

  • Outstanding

    Outstanding experience in a cute and very comfortable hotel. Staff is very friendly and the food of the restaurant, both at diner and breakfast, is worth the trip: delicate, creative and delicious. Definitely a hotel to be recommended with great quality price ratio in a nice area of Denmark.

  • My best hotel experience ever

    Over the past 3 years I have stay in more than 100 hotels worldwide. Hotel Bretagne is the best hotel I ever stay at, so far. The balance between the design of the hotel, the service level, the quality of the food, the wine menu, the design of the room gave an atmosphere, which I never saw before. I meet extremely friendly and serviceminded people, who were well educated and knew how to run a hotel. I would go back anytime I could.

  • Very cosy hotel, excellent service and high quality breakfast

    I really enjoyed the staying in this hotel. Everything is new renovated and fresh. The stile is "gustaviansk" but anyway modern and homely. The service is very personally and observant. The breakfast buffé is not very much to choose but the quality is very high and something special. I prefer this instead of having a lot of bad quality food.

    Stayed recently a few nights at this hotel. Looked very well on their website but the reality was even better. Everything was thoughtful, room, textiles, furniture and it throughout the hotel. Breakfast and dinner of the highest quality.Very relaxing and peaceful, really something to recommend.

  • Charming little hotel

    If you’re looking for a charming little hotel, close to everything, this is it. The interior looks nice, the rooms are clean and the staff are friendly. Enjoy your brunch looking over the little lake.

  • Terrific hotel

    Terrific hotel and about 35 minutes by train from Kronborg Castle that played a key role in the history of northern Europe. This outstanding Renaissance castle combined with this hotel is a great value over treating the castle as a day trip with an expensive Copenhagen hotel.
