Bella Sky Hotel |
Bella Sky Comwell located in the middle of Ørestad, a green neighbourhood built around nature and water , is a striking piece of architecture designed by the Copenhagen-based architecture firm 3XN
Bella Sky Comwell is the largest hotel in Scandinavia with 23 floors, 812 designer rooms and 30 flexible meeting and conference rooms located in two oblique towers. It is also the first hotel in Europe with an entire floor (named Bella Donna ) dedicated to women.
In 2011, Bella Sky was named the Commercial Building of the Year in Denmark, and recently it won the “Best Architecture in Europe” award at the International Hotel Awards in London.
Bella Sky Comwell’s two towers stand close to each other and leans away from each other, creating an opening that ensures all guests fully enjoy the wonderful view over Amager Common and the vast Copenhagen skyline. The angled facades and tilting buildings are also an expression of efficient and optimized utilization of standard hotel logistics.
Kim Herforth Nielsen, founder of 3XN and Creative Director, explains:
“The challenge was to build two towers with a single origin, so a common foyer was possible.
Designing a sustainable building was also vital to us. This includes insulating the building from solar heat and heat loss, which meant that the facade could not be comprised of more than 50% glass.
The facade’s pattern provides this insulating effect. And the pattern, which is formed by diagonal and vertical lines, enhances the building’s look by following the turning of the towers.”

Bella Sky Comwell follows the tradition of renowned Scandinavian design and is decorated with simple components in stylish materials that reflect the hotel’s exclusivity. The vision is to create a modern hotel that reflects the city’s pulsating energy while providing space for intimacy.
The entrance features a specially-designed light installation and furniture upholstered with textiles that discretely resemble the structure of the building’s facade. The foyer features a room in the room and incorporates materials from the hotel’s natural surroundings, creating a soft and intimate contrast to the city.
The lounge and restaurants feature plant walls, the lobby’s fireplace area is surrounded by reeds and the wall behind the reception is a woodpile. The classic, stationary desks are replaced with mobile elements that ensure personalized service.
The architectural design creates more than 200 different combinations in the 812 rooms. The pure lines are broken by natural materials such as ash and smoked oak, as well as red, purple and green nuances, and specially-designed rugs and furniture.
