YOUR STAY MAKES A DIFFERENCE
KOMPAS Hotel Aalborg is a 100 % non-profit hotel. Every cent of the profits from the hotel's operations goes to welfare work. Every time you choose us, you help support our social welfare work, especially for seafarers and others in the maritime community.
SOCIAL WORK AMONG SEAFARERS
WE SUPPORT...
YOUR STAY MAKES A DIFFERENCE
KOMPAS Hotel Aalborg was originally founded by Domestic Seamen's Mission. We have the opportunity to support them through our mission statement. In 2022, we have donated DKK 500,000, which goes towards our local missionary's salary and other specific tasks. Seamen's Mission's latest project is to improve the well-being of young people at Danish maritime schools, where 1 new employee will be hired to fulfil this task. See more below about Seamen's Mission's core story.
THE DANISH SEAMEN'S HOMES
Today, KOMPAS Hotel is a modern hotel, but originally, we were founded as a seamen’s home in 1905 – a heritage which we are proud of and still build our business on. We have two sister hotels in Denmark and three in Greenland.
KNITTING CLUB FOR SEAMAN AALBORG
For over 100 years, Seaman Aalborg has handed out home-knitted socks and hats to sailors in December, and this Christmas tradition continues! Every second Wednesday, a group of ladies meet at KOMPAS Hotel Aalborg to knit and cosy up for a good cause. Would you like to join in?
