We stayed for 1 night only in early January 2026. It is everything you expect of CitizenM as we have stayed in others and like the concept (for short stays). The breakfast was again excellent. This particular CitM seemed a little older than some others we’ve stayed in although was still clean.

Great location with easy access to Old Town and the Christmas markets. Staff was super friendly, everything was spotless, and the rooms were impressively quiet. My only gripes: the rooms are very small and ran hot with no real temperature control. Otherwise, a solid stay!
