Hotels in Funen Island, Denmark

Funen Island sits in the heart of Denmark, with a maritime climate that brings mild summers averaging 60°F (15°C) and cool winters around 32°F (0°C). It's famous as the birthplace of Hans Christian Andersen, so you can tour his childhood home in Odense during summer, or cycle the 80-mile Funen Heritage Route past half-timbered villages and manor houses like Egeskov Castle. In winter, the Christmas markets at Odense's main square are packed with local crafts and gløgg, while spring offers fewer crowds at the UNESCO-listed Kerteminde abbey ruins.
