How to Fall in Love With Copenhagen in Just 3 Days

If you're exploring the city in just three days, it's important to choose a hotel that is central to all of the activities and restaurants. Andersen Boutique Hotel in Vesterbro is walking distance from the city center and the main train station and is the perfect option for travelers who are on a tighter budget. The Andersen Hotel offers wine hour every night in the lobby lounge, comfortable beds, and bike rentals.

The five-star Hotel d'Angleterre is an icon and a historic landmark in Copenhagen and a great choice for travelers looking for luxury accommodations. Located close to Nyhavn and Stroget and with a metro station next door, the location is ideal for a short break.

The Michelin-awarded restaurant Marchal, located at Hotel d'Angleterre, is a five-star dining experience not to be missed. The restaurant's fairly new head chef, Andreas Bagh, brings the delightful balance of French cuisine with a classic Nordic twist, all while continuing the legacy of the world-renowned restaurant. Menu highlights include Danish squid cooked with oysters and Champagne butter; oysters with green apples and fresh wasabi; and lobster tail with pumpkin, grape, and ginger sauce. After dinner, guests can walk over to Balthazar to enjoy some Champagne and cocktails.

To top it off, your expert sommelier/waiter will perfectly pair your dishes with white and red wines for an additional cost. If you're in Copenhagen, do yourself a favor and spoil yourself at Marchal . . . you will not regret it.

Sunday brunch in Copenhagen must be spent at Mad & Kaffe. The cafe has a laid-back and cozy vibe. At Mad & Kaffe, guests get to choose three, five, or seven items off the menu, making it a tapas-style Nordic tasting. Be sure to try the homemade cream cheese with sourdough bread and classic Danish rice pudding with cherry sauce.
