Great, good reception and good orientation regarding nice rooms and the course of the stay. Can only be recommended and it is not the last time I see opportunities to use stays there.
All in all, nice, will praise that the pool had a nice temperature, which is something many places don't have anymore.

We opted out of cleaning on the first day, which might have warranted a cup of coffee or a drink with the meal as compensation for declining cleaning.

We had two overnight stays and used the restaurant one evening. The food was excellent and more exquisite than expected, and it was nice to visit a restaurant and hotel bar that had a respectable selection of good Danish beers from smaller breweries. Similarly, the breakfast buffet was a pleasure. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and they contributed to a good experience. The rooms were nice and well-maintained - and here the biggest drawback was that the pillows are a bit thin and in short supply.

Fantastic staff - a young team that gets along SO well, has respect for each other and especially the service profession. Everything was served with a big smile. The hotel had 7 confirmation events on Saturday that in no way disturbed us weekend guests. I look forward to coming back. A small wish: there were only 2 hangers on the open wardrobe rack and no drawers/shelves - this could be improved 😊 - especially when staying for more than 1 night

Museum Silkeborg
Go on a car holiday in Denmark with the whole family and find child-friendly hotels at Risskov. Visit Silkeborg, one of the Danish cities with a lot to offer. One of the celebrities is Silkeborg Museum Silkeborg in Hovedgården - Silkeborg's oldest building. Here you can meet the world-famous Tollund Man, who was found in a bog at Bjældskovdal in 1950 and is believed to have lived around the transition between the Bronze and Iron Ages. See also the lesser-known Elling Woman, found in the same bog 12 years earlier and thought to have lived at the same time as the Tollund Man. Find the best car holiday at Risskov that suits your holiday and get away to discover Silkeborg.
Hjejlen
Come on a wonderful sailing trip on the Silkeborg lakes with Hjejlen; the world's oldest coal-fired wheel steamer. This magnificent steamship celebrated its 150th anniversary in 2011 with the participation of The Queen. Experience the beautiful Jutlandic countryside from an angle you've never seen before, and become part of the Hjejlen's amazing history. Make a stop at Himmelbjerget and go up to enjoy the wonderful view from the top. A mini break, a family holiday, a summer holiday or just a cheap weekend break - holidaying in Denmark never has to be boring!
Gudenåen
Experience the Gudenå, which with its length of 158 km, is called Denmark's longest river. The idyllic river stretches through East and Central Jutland and offers excellent opportunities for angling or a leisurely canoe or kayak trip. In addition, you can experience some very special walks in the particularly flora and fauna-rich nature surrounding the Gudenå.
Museum Jorn
Find a car holiday in Denmark and visit Silkeborg with Riskkov Bilferie. Visit the exciting Jorn Museum in Silkeborg, which includes collections of paintings, drawings, prints and ceramics donated by Danish artist Asger Jorn between 1953 and 1973. The museum is located in a lovely park area down by the Remstrup River and, in addition to the Asger Jorn collections, also houses various temporary exhibitions. Risskov has many options for child-friendly hotels in Silkeborg and the surrounding area, making it easy to plan your holiday.
AQUA Aquarium & Animal Park
Meet the fascinating Danish animals living in wild and natural environments in AQUA. Watch the otter hunt in the lake and meet the cheeky raccoons who love to fight as well as play. There are also storks, vipers and then there are the cute little boar cubs, always busy exploring their surroundings. Children are sure to enjoy the large water playground, where water fights last for hours. Shoot the others down with the water cannon and try out the various water experiments or how about a trip through the water tower, if you're up for it! There's also a large indoor aquarium with pike and the record-breaking giant eel, which can swallow a whole duck if need be. Or how about a visit to the bottom of the lake without getting your feet wet, a great experience that can easily keep the whole family entertained. Also try the trip up to the fourth floor, which is full of amphibians and reptiles as well as various insects, and then there's the Dark Aquarium, but we've promised to keep that a secret, because it has to be experienced. Finish off an amazing tour in the café area, where organic dishes are served in both adult and children's sizes. Take the whole family to AQUA Aquarium & Animal Park - book a cheap hotel stay with Risskov today.

Silkeborg Bird of Prey Show and Bison Farm
The absolute best way to experience the beautiful eagles, extremely fast falcons and very agile hawks. Both entertaining and unconventional, the shows demonstrate the incredible flying and hunting instincts these birds of prey possess. Try holding a bird of prey or owl yourself. They can appear larger on the arm than when flying around in the higher air and look like grey sparrows. Afterwards, there is the opportunity to explore the 'Owl Forest' and meet the world's largest owls, which nest in the trees. Then try to find your way out of the forest through the maze of paths, not always easy.
Also meet the magnificent bison. Take the tractor-trailer ride and hear the strange and amazing story of the bison's migrations and how it was vital to the Indians' survival and eventually wiped out by the white man.
An exciting trip for both children and adults interested in birds of prey and bison in the middle of nature's own open-air scene.
Sky Mountain
Go on a cheap car holiday to Central Jutland and climb Himmelbjerget and experience the magnificent scenery. Himmelbjerget is 147 metres high and has attracted thousands of tourists since the 1800s.
