First Hotel Grand - Odense

Historic city hotel from 1897 with Elite Smiley dining and live music

Dining

First Hotel Grand Odense houses the on-site seafood restaurant Grand's Fiskerestaurant, which holds the Danish Veterinary and Food Administration Elite Smiley for food safety. The breakfast buffet is included and offers a wide variety of dishes, including local specialties. The Grand Bar provides a cocktail selection and is known for its engaging weekend atmosphere with live music.

Rooms

The hotel offers eight different room categories across 135 rooms, ranging from standard single rooms to Junior Suites. Each room is individually decorated, reflecting the building's two distinct architectural styles: the historic main building from 1897 and the modernist wing from the 1950s. Guests in the Smart Twin rooms receive a coffee machine and a mini bar replenished daily.

The central location also provides easy access to public parking in the garage behind the hotel at Store Gråbrødrestræde 12.
