Nordlandet

Top choice in Bornholm


Wowsers, talk about a makeover. The folks behind the first-class Kadeau restaurant in southern Bornholm have turned their attention to this hotel, with similarly stellar results. The coast-hugging complex offers minimalist, on-trend hotel rooms; most have sea views, some have terraces and/or kitchens. Also on-site: a beautifully appointed restaurant (book ahead) and cool bar serving local beer and snacks.

It's on the main road as you head south from Sandvig to Allinge.
