I took your advice and went to the Comfort Hotel across the road after wasting time at the lockers. I had to throw away a non-refundable hotel booking downtown but the hassle of getting the bike there etc. was too much to deal with at this point in the day and this will be way easier in the morning too.
Sorry it didn’t work out for you and that you’re stuck with a non-refundable hotel night.

You perhaps could have tried to get the Comfort CPH to store your boxed bike even without staying at the hotel for the night. I sometimes book a hotel room there just to store stuff — that too not always in the booked rooms at that. I try to get the Clarion CPH for 20k Choice US points or the Comfort CPH for 10k Strawberry/Nordic Choice Club points rather than pay the regular paid rates in DKK.
