A NEW HOTEL INSTEAD OF OFFICES
ECE Work & Live is planning the development and construction of a new hotel in Copenhagen. The hotel is to be built on the site of an office redevelopment project on Gammel Kongevej, Copenhagen’s attractive main shopping street. It’s located in the independent district of Frederiksberg to the west of the city center, known for its upmarket residential neighborhoods, exclusive boutiques, and wealth of green spaces.
ECE acquired the former office building (with a gross floor area of roughly 7,600 m²) from TPG Angelo Gordon in 2024. In the planned development project, the existing building will be converted into a hotel and extended upward. ECE is investing a total of around 65 million euros in the project.
The plan is to create a modern designer hotel with around 210 rooms, which is due to be completed by early 2027.

GREEN LIGHT FOR FIVE-STAR HOTEL PROJECT
The hotel closed in winter 2023 at the end of another very successful season. Renovation and conversion work then got underway in March 2024. In 2022, a 20-year lease agreement for the hotel complex (which was acquired by a joint venture between ECE Real Estate Partners’ European Lodging Recovery Fund and the hotel developers Soravia and Denkmalneu as junior partners) was signed with the international Palladium Hotel Group from Spain and its exclusive boutique lifestyle brand Only YOU Hotels. During a detailed planning phase, the requirements of this unique luxury hotel were taken into account. The hotel will be San Marco’s largest five-star lifestyle hotel, with 168 rooms, two restaurants, three bars, a courtyard cafe, and a bakery, and is due to open in spring 2026.
