Brøchner Hotels


Brøchner Hotels is Danish hotel company based in Copenhagen, Denmark and owns both boutique hotels and a hostel in Aarhus.

History

Brøchner Hotels was founded in 1982 when Einer Honoré bought 50-room Hotel Kong Arthur for his daughter and son-in-law Søster and Hans Brøchner-Mortensen who then gave up their jobs as nurse and carpenter to run the hotel. Hotel Kong Arthur was expanded to 107 rooms in 1989 and with new conference facilities in 1992. Brøchner-Mortensen bought Ibsens Hotel at the corner of Frederiksborggade and Nansensgade in 1997 and expanded it the following year.
In 2009 Hans and Søster Brøchner-Mortensen passed the company on to their children Søren and Kirsten Brøchner-Mortensen.
In 2013, Søren and his wife Mette Brøchner-Mortensen acquired full ownership of the existing company while Hotel Kong Arthur and Ibsens Hotel was transferred to the new company Arthur Hotels owned by Kirsten Brøchner-Mortensen.

Hotels and hostels

In 2018, Brøchner Hotels opened Hotel Herman K in a former distribution substation at Bremerholm 6 in downtown Copenhagen. Hotel Herman K is Brøchner Hotels' first 5 star hotel. Hotel Ottilia opened in 2019 in two historic buildings in Carlsberg's former brewery site in Vesterbro. As of May 2019, Brøchner Hotels are also planning on opening their first hostel while still following their boutique style. The hostel is going to be located inside the former main library in Aarhus. It is going to be Brøchners Hotels' first location outside Copenhagen and is expected to open in March 2020.
