With its theatrical back-drop of copper towers and spires, the ‘købmændenes havn’ (merchant’s harbour) that grew fat as a centre of Baltic trade is now a city of easy living, filled with cafés, restaurants, museums, fountains, statues and squares: all humoured by playful street musicians and performers.
The quayside at Nyhavn with its outdoor restaurants, boutiques and antique shops, retains the genuine charm and authenticity of by-gone days: a place to see and be seen. The city is surrounded by water, sea and canals - the maritime atmosphere is indelible and at night the centre is illuminated by the glittering lights of Tivoli, open from mid-April to mid-September.
Newly refurbished in 2009 the Hotel 27 has both a cocktail lounge and more excitingly an Icebar . All the 200 rooms in the hotel have been designed in the well-known Scandinavian design tradition by leading Danish designers & architects. All rooms have, flat screen TV and an exquisite bathroom, executed in black slate.Close to the city centre, all of Copenhagen's major attractions are easily accessible.
