Hotel Villa Provence

My no.1 hotel stay ever. The atmosphere was absolutely lovely, nice and quiet in the middle of the city center, like stepping into another world when entering the courtyard, with the wonderful trees, birds, seating area - small and intimate, yet enough space for privacy. The room- clean, neat and a homey feel, with bathroom of a nice size, cool on the hot summer days we spent in Aarhus. Extra points for the warm, personal service and the open bar- concept🥰. Hope to be able to come back! Until then, this experience will stay with me for a long time.

I would previously have recommended this hotel as the one place to stay in Aarhus. However, our recent stay was not pleasant. We had booked one night because we needed a good night’s sleep before a family funeral. Upon check-in we were informed we had been upgraded to a suite as they were out of other rooms - only to find out it was on the top floor with very low ceilings and ceiling windows with no blackout curtains. The room was so hot, bright and it sounded like a group of birds were murdering each other all night, so we got 1h of sleep and it sadly spoiled the weekend.

I loved the beautiful and Cozy rooms! The staff were all amazing, willing to go above and beyond to help in any way they could. It's located in walking distance to everything you need. I walked all over the place alone, stayed alone, and felt very safe. They still use a "key" for the room, with a heavy key chain. I recommend giving it to the front desk when you leave for the day. The day I was leaving, I couldn't find it. I thought I left it in the room. However, when arriving back to Copenhagen before flying home to the US, I found the key with me! Yikes!! The owner was extremely nice and patient with the situation. The hotel in Copenhagen was supposed to mail back for me, but it wasn't mailed. By the time I found out the key wasn't mailed, I was back in the US and needed a family member to take care of it for me. I was so grateful for how nice and understanding the owner was. He didn't receive the key back for several weeks without charging me. This was the service you will receive here, more like family staying in their home, rather than just a number.

Loved this little boutique hotel! Reception was warm and welcoming and eager to help! Cute little help yourself bar set up so you can either make your own cocktails, grab a beer or glass of wine to enjoy in the cozy courtyard. Our room was great, equipped with a fan which was perfect for the heat, and outside noises. Bathroom was a perfect size, had slippers and robes which came in handy! We didn’t have time for the breakfast the next morning but did pay for the parking in the private lot. Location was great - easy to walk to pretty much anything in the downtown area.
