Some 40 minutes drive north of Copenhagen, CORI Hornbæk Hotel is set to redefine “barefoot luxury” by blending understated design with easy access to beaches and nature. The design by Afroditi Krassa emphasis is on calm, materials, and atmosphere rather than overt opulence. Originally opened in 1935 and operating as a hospital since 1955, the hotel will reopen in summer 2026 as a luxury destination. It is a member of The Leading Hotels of the World.
