Copenhagen
We will arrive by train for our first visit of three days so are seeking the best hotel within walking distance offering at least 4 star accomodation, large beds and a memorable stay. Any ideas greatly appreciated ? Thank you

IMO, the Skt. Petri is currently Copenhagen's best hotel - a contemporary designer's dream. 100 meters from the train station and right in downtown, in the university district.

Sorry I will start again and look for what is unusual about the hotel - maybe I am not so interested in avant-garde Danish design or the upfront stereotyped marketing of cocktail bars, sheet threadcount etc. Probably that is because our own cocktails are second to none as are our sheets - LOL. It was really not the design I was commenting on but rather the culture of the hotel portrayed by the images and marketing hype on the website. I am happy to be told that I have misinterpreted the culture of the establishment and I am not an OP.

I'm afraid that you won't have much luck. Most of the 4-star and up hotels will sport either a similar vibe, or will be some variation on business travel standard.
You might try the Admiral Hotel though, which has a bit more rustic design to it. Or the SAS Royal, which is more classic - BUT the rooms are very small.
