About this hotel

A Slice of Colonial History at Your Leisure

The Denmark Tavern, located in the heart of Serampore, Hooghly, offers a charming blend of heritage and comfort. Nestled on the banks of the Hooghly River, this restored colonial-era hotel is a true reflection of Danish legacy in India.

Whether you’re sipping coffee by the river, enjoying a quiet read on the veranda, or exploring nearby colonial landmarks, your stay at The Denmark Tavern is bound to feel timeless.

This boutique heritage hotel invites travellers to experience Danish hygge — the art of comfort and coziness — in a truly historic setting.
