The Skagen occupies two buildings (one originally a butcher's, though you'd never guess
it). Facing each other, they're connected by a passage that burrows beneath the street.
Rooms are attractively decorated and a continent away from chain-hotel clones. There's a
bar and free afternoon waffles and coffee, and excellent breakfasts. Staff can also give ad-
vice on a whole raft of vigorous outdoor activities.

On a quiet residential street, this guesthouse has 18 comfortable rooms with decor ranging
from flowery to the less florid, and a small bar for guests. It's no cheaper than the larger
hotels but still remains an attractive alternative to hotel life. There are also four apartments
with mini-kitchens.
