Copenhagen in March

March 14, 2009 · Leave a Comment

Am now in Copenhagen (CPH) after traveling 3 hours and a bit by train from Aarhus. Minutes prior to arrival in CPH, it began to snow! So I got covered in snow as I dragged by bag to the covers of the platform. An easy and relaxing train ride, although not that cheap @ about 330+ DKK (Danish Kroner) -approximately $AUD80. But the seat is very comfortable, with power connector above the head for the laptop. I chose the ‘non speaking’ carriage. Yes, you get to choose what type of carriage you want to ride in, e.g., family ones.

Anyway, I checked into Hotel Twenty Seven. Friendly, smiley staff, with free internet, breakfast and even a free buffet nightly. A wine bar, ice bar, as well as a cocktail bar forms part of the establishment. Apart from the smallish room, I really like the place. Its funky and modern with nice little touches. The wine bar I am writing this from has various kinds of seatings – from perch up high stools along great wooden tables, to lovely modern (and comfy) sofas covered in grey flannel-like wool upholstery and seats and an assortment of chairs over nice rugs and finally a slightly more ‘formal’ dining area – wallpapered in a mottled black and white adorned with black and white framed photographs.

I went for a quick walk but due to the combination of snow raining down on me together with the unfamiliarity of the roads made me retreat back to the warmth of the hotel room after 15 minutes. Perhaps there will be a chance to explore further tomorrow.
