Normally I wouldn’t consider reviewing an experience like this, specifically since professionals have already done it, but I feel compelled to do it on behalf of my in-laws that just offered me and my partner this supposedly incredible experience that hardly reached any of our expectations. ||The intimidating two star reputation sets up the experience to a great and exciting start which unfortunately is never really fully accomplished. |The food is certainly good but once compared to many others one, or even none, Michelin star places lacks that extra special feeling that you would expect. Adding to the disappointment is the service. It shouldn’t be too much to ask that the waiter knows how to simply make a drink when the value of that drink certainly includes a high service fee (at a second attempt to make a g&t, not even ice was included in the drink). The extravagant decor also reflects the inconsistency of the place where kitsch meets modern in an attempt to be cool and different, paring expensive pieces with very blend and doll designs. Even the Hästens bed is then furnished with bad duvets and pillows proving once again the lack of understanding of luxury and comfort. Expensive is certainly not a synonym of quality or exclusivity and in the case of Henne Kirkeby Kro that applies to both the food and the stay. ||All and all, the experience didn’t fulfill the expectations and stayed far behind from other similar places, like Falsled, Dyvig, Frederiksminde, Dragsholm, so much so that even the table next to us had to ask ‘why the two stars’ which in the waiter’s opinion are justified by the little details such as ‘the washcloths in the bathroom’… there’s a constant attempt to be luxurious, extravagant and ‘expensive’ (word of the same waiter) but it always falls short due to the lack of personality and clear point of view. I certainly rate the experience two stars… out of five.
