Situated in Copenhagen’s Købmagergade, the newly unveiled project will be a mixed-use scheme that will draw history and university links of the buildings.
The unique landmark hotel and retail redevelopment in the centre of Copenhagen in Denmark will focus on redeveloping the historic buildings on one of the city’s main shopping streets, transforming them into a mixed-use area of new retail spaces and a 243-room boutique hotel by fast-growing hotel company 25hours Hotels.
The new name of ‘The Trinity Quarter’ was chosen to reflect its excellent location which sees it positioned adjacent to the historic Trinitatis Kirke church on Købmagergade. The upcoming hotel will face onto the square next to the church, which is also the location of Copenhagen’s famous Rundetaarn (Round Tower) which remains a top tourist attraction in the city.
James Robson, Managing Director and country head for Hines in The Nordics, said: “We chose to name the redevelopment ‘The Trinity Quarter’ because it reflects the heritage of the buildings and their location next to the historic Trinity Church, but also our intention to create an international destination and a vibrant new quarter on Købmagergade. We are excited about the new concepts 25hours will bring to the hotel, and how these will complement the high-quality retailers we are starting discussions with.”
Karen Nielsen, Development Director for Hines in Copenhagen, said: “At every stage of The Trinity Quarter project we have sought to protect, restore and enhance the intricate heritage of these wonderful buildings. This area has a fascinating history that will be a prominent part of the project. We are very proud to be restoring part of Copenhagen’s heritage and bringing it back into use for people to enjoy.”
