Copenhagen offers a large variety of cultural sights and many of them are within walking distance from the hotel.

The Little Mermaid

Her father Hans Christian Andersen wrote the fairy tale in 1837. Disney produced the cartoon and Copenhagen keeps a statue in her memory. The Little Mermaid is still the most popular tourist attraction in Denmark and one of the most photographed statues in the world. There are several copies of her but the closest you get to the original is the one sitting on Langelinie in Copenhagen Harbour.

Amalienborg Castle

10 minutes walk from the Hotel Christian IV is Amalienborg Castle, where the Queen and her husband reside in the winter season. The beautiful castle consists of four different palaces. You will also find a museum with different exhibitions, the Amalie Garden and the Royal Life guard

Canal tour

Another famous attraction is the guided tour round the canals of Copenhagen. You sail through the old part of the city and pass many of the most famous sights. Closest departure is from Nyhavn, 10 minutes walk from the hotel.

Shopping on Strøget - the worlds' longest pedestrian street

The largest shopping area in Copenhagen is located around Strøget in the very heart of the city. You will find plenty of shops - from budget chain stores to some of the worlds' most exclusive design stores. The street is 1,1 km long and stretches from the Town Hall square to Kongens Nytorv. Strøget is a nickname from the 18th century and covers the streets Frederiksberggade, Nygade, Vimmelskaftet and Østergade as well as the squares Nytorv, Gammeltorv and Amagertorv.

Rundetårn - The Round Tower

The Round Tower is Europe's' oldest working observatory, used to look at the stars since 1642. When King Christian IV built The Round Tower Denmark was a well known country in the astronomers' world thanks to the astronomer Tycho Brahe. When he died in 1601 King Christian IV wished to continue Brahe's research with a university observatory, which leads to the building of the Round Tower. Today, the tower is used very often by amateur astronomers and many other guests enjoying the spectacular view over Copenhagen.

Statens Museum for Kunst - The Danish national gallery

Not very far from the hotel, in Sølvgade, you will find the Danish national gallery. Statens Museum for kunst, the Danish national gallery, is the only place in Denmark, which features 700 years of Western art and cultural history under one roof. Consequently a visti to the museum means an artistic encounter between classical, modern and contemporary art, just as the museum building in itself represents a fusion of new and old.
