Hjerting Badehotel is a seaside hotel on the Hjerting beach promenade, ten minutes by car from Esbjerg on the Danish west coast. It hosts business meetings, conferences with overnight stays, weddings and private parties, with a ballroom for up to 60 guests, a dining room for 24 and smaller restaurant rooms for 2 to 40. The hotel has 35 rooms and 16 guest houses on site.
Seminars and company events
The hotel sells meeting packages for short and long events. A half-day meeting covers a morning, afternoon or evening of a few hours with light catering, and it can be combined with breakfast and lunch. A full-day meeting includes full catering and can end with dinner in the restaurant. A meeting with an overnight stay is shaped around the group and suits several-day courses, management meetings and strategy sessions.
The hotel lists audiovisual equipment and help with the start of the day, flexible layouts, smaller rooms for group work, catering matched to the schedule, free wireless internet and free parking. Organizers can ask for a boardroom meeting, a training course, a workshop or a conference. Room sizes for meetings are not published, so the team proposes a room once it knows the number of participants and the format. The seafront promenade is part of the program: the hotel suggests walk-and-talk sessions and short breaks by the water.
Weddings and receptions
The hotel has hosted celebrations for generations, and parties are part of its identity. It handles weddings, confirmations, birthdays and smaller gatherings, and it tailors each day with the host. The host can stay relaxed with the guests while the hotel sets the tables and serves the meal.
Rooms and capacities
The old ballroom, Gammel sal, is the largest party room. It is decorated in a classic seaside style with a herringbone floor, white painted panels and floral wallpaper, with a sea view and direct access to the terrace facing Hjerting beach. It accepts round or long tables for up to 60 people. The dining room, Spisestuen, is a smaller room for up to 24 people with access to the promenade. The restaurant is made of rooms within a room, and its smaller spaces suit private dinners from 2 to 40 people.
Accommodation
The hotel has 35 rooms and 16 guest houses around the main building. Rooms in the old building are on the first floor, several with a sea view or balcony. The newer wing has rooms and suites with a terrace or balcony. The guest houses sleep 4 to 6 people and have a fully equipped kitchen, which suits longer stays. There is one family room for four in the new wing, and extra beds can be added in most rooms. Every room has a seating area with a desk.
Catering
The restaurant serves the group from breakfast to dinner. Breakfast is a Danish buffet with home-baked bread. The kitchen combines classic Danish cooking with southern European dishes along the coast. A wine bar is open in the evening. Business dinners can be arranged in the restaurant.
History and setting
An inn stood on the site for more than 300 years. The inn burned in 1914, and construction of the hotel began that same year. Hjerting was a popular seaside resort, and the hotel later became a local gathering place. A new chapter began in 2024 under new owners, who renovated the common rooms. The hotel is close to the Wadden Sea National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site, and it has a sauna, bicycles, paddle boards and kayaks for guests.
Getting there
The address is Strandpromenaden 1, 6710 Esbjerg. Parking is free, with two charging stations. Esbjerg is about ten minutes away by car.
