Hotel Fox, Copenhagen

Hotel VW Fox
Copenhagen is a great shopping city for design pilgrims, but for some reason the choice of hotels can be aesthetically underwhelming considering the superb quality of nature and interiors on offer there. So when a new experimental hotel with spectacular rooms and affordable rates opened its doors in April in Denmark, there was cause for celebration. Hotel Fox was initially conceived as part of a marketing strategy for the launch of the new VW Fox. The idea was to get young designers and artist to paint some rooms and create a hip urban hotel that would open at the same time as the European launch of the car. However, what makes Hotel Fox really interesting is that the people chosen to curate the project were Berlin’s Die Gestalten Verlag – publishers of some of the most sumptuous, cutting -edge graphics and illustration books on the market.

Of the 61 rooms, which can be yours for as little as DKK945(125 euro) per night, we’d like to have a night in every one, but particularly love the Anti – Gravity room by London’s Neasden Control Centre with its edgy, hand – drawn illustrations, the Logo room by Viagrafik, which is covered in printed tape, the high kitsch of the Heidi and Geissenpeter rooms by Swiss trash comic illustrator Benjamin Gudel, the four rooms full of fairytale creatures by the Brisbane collective Rinzen and the polish style of the rooms by Parisian duo Antoine et Manuel, who are best known for their shop window displays at Colette. As a guest at Hotel Fox one thing’s for certain you’ll never be short of a bedtime story, in pictures at least.
