The first thing you notice is the Guest Wall, a floor-to-ceiling blackboard on which previous visitors have scribbled messages in colored chalk. It's a sign that while Front may have the same owners as the Hotel D'Angleterre, the city's grande dame property, it's more lighthearted, mixing traditional with trendy. In the lobby bar you can browse books by authors ranging from A. A. Milne to Bret Easton Ellis while lounging on a hot-pink sofa under a portrait of Queen Margrethe. The compact guest rooms are designed in a palette of granite and slate with black leather chairs, while bathrooms have rustic cobbled floors. The menu in the dining room even takes a classic like fish-and-chips and updates it by using tuna. Guests can enjoy welcome touches like free Wi-Fi and complimentary beer in the minibar, then grumble about the old-fashioned problem of poor soundproofing.
