The local area

CPH Hotel is located in the heart of Copenhagen and adjacent to the city’s old Meatpacking District, which was home to a large number of butcher shops and other meat industry businesses up until only a few decades ago. Today, the Meatpacking District is one of Copenhagen’s hippest neighbourhoods, and the butcher shops’ new neighbours are creative types working with art and culture.

The Brown Meatpacking District (Den Brune Kødby), which is the closest of the three to CPH Hotel, has theatres, community centres and art schools for children. In the Grey Meatpacking District (Den Grå Kødby) along the streets of Staldgade and Slagtehusgade, you can also find theatres, art exhibitions, galleries and an abundance of creative and micro food businesses. Finally, the White Meatpacking District (Den Hvide Kødby) is home to innovative enterprises and restaurants, shops, cafés and clubs for every preference.

You can find more information about the restaurants in the Meatpacking District here, and be sure to check out our recommendations below to some of the other interesting places in the local area - unless you want to discover it all on your own, of course. Be sure to also look into whether there are any ongoing events or festivals in the area.
