In the last installment I reviewed the SAS Lounge Copenhagen. Since the lounge was very crowded and we had time to spare, we decided to also check out the Eventyr Lounge Copenhagen (via Priority Pass), which we preferred by a long shot.
Eventyr Lounge Copenhagen location
The Eventyr Lounge Copenhagen is located in Terminal 3, in the non-Schengen area. This means you have to clear passport control to access the lounge, and therefore it’s not for those traveling on most short haul flights within Europe.
Once you’ve cleared immigration, the Eventyr Lounge is located near gate C26, on the right side of the terminal.
The lounge is one level above the main concourse, so you can either take the stairs or an elevator up a level.
Eventyr Lounge Copenhagen hours & entry requirements
The Eventyr Lounge Copenhagen is open daily from 5:30AM until 8PM, covering a vast majority of departures. The lounge is open to Priority Pass members, so it’s pretty widely accessible, especially given all the great credit cards that offer a Priority Pass™ membership.
On top of that, this is used as the premium lounge for most non-Star Alliance airlines departing from the non-Schengen part of Copenhagen Airport. Admittedly that’s a pretty limited number of carriers, but includes British Airways, Emirates, Middle East Airlines, and Qatar Airways.
Since we were flying with SAS, we accessed the lounge via Priority Pass.
Eventyr Lounge Copenhagen seating & layout
The Eventyr Lounge Copenhagen is roughly 8,000 square feet, and is circular in shape. The lounge is essentially one huge room, with an incredible amount of natural light, and unbeatable views of the gate area and apron. The lounge had a variety of seating options, including chairs, couches, and dining tables. I’ll let the pictures speak mostly for themselves.
One corner of the lounge had a Carlsberg-sponsored “News Corner,” with a selection of international news.
But who needs TVs when you have the kinds of views that this lounge offers?!
The best part of the lounge was how quiet it was. When we arrived there were two other people there. Once they left, we had the lounge to ourselves for nearly an hour. What a contrast to the SAS Lounge! I imagine the lounge gets much busier prior to Emirates and Qatar Airways departures.
I do have to say, the lounge was almost eerily quiet, and could benefit from some sort of background music, or something. You could hear a pin drop in this lounge.
Eventyr Lounge Copenhagen food & drinks
The Eventyr Lounge Copenhagen had a modest selection of food & drinks.
The food selection consisted of pastries, fresh fruit, cold cuts, cereal, eggs, sausage, and more. It wasn’t an amazing selection, but I’d say it was roughly on par with what was being offered in the SAS Lounge.
To drink there was self-serve liquor, a coffee machine, wine, beer, water, and more.
Eventyr Lounge Copenhagen bathrooms & showers
The Eventyr Lounge has bathrooms in the back corner of the lounge. The bathrooms were clean, but I guess that’s not surprising, given how empty the lounge was.
The lounge also had a couple of shower rooms. While the shower rooms as such didn’t cost anything extra to use, you had to pay 50DKK (~$7) for amenities, like a towel and toiletries.
Bottom line
The Eventyr Lounge Copenhagen has nice decor, incredible views, and was also quiet during our visit. It was a nice change of pace from the SAS Lounge, which was overcrowded. Given the current state of the SAS Lounge, I’d return to the Eventyr Lounge in a heartbeat, even though the food & beverage selection isn’t that great.
