Johan couldn't have been a better host. We instantly felt completely at home and relaxed - helped by a gift of a lovely bottle of wine for us grown-ups and a gift for our wee boy. Johan took time to show us everything in the apartment, and to describe the area and the best things do do with a small child. He even lent us his family chariot bike, which was great fun for our 4-year old gladiator and a brilliant way to get around the city. :) The photos really don't do this place justice - it is just a lovely apartment, and very roomy and spacious. The garden is lovely to sit in too, with the added benefit of rabbits, guinea pigs and a children's play area. We would definitely come back to stay here, and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it. Especially the coffee machine...
We also loved the area, as felt it had the best of both worlds - close enough to the city centre to feel part of everything and easy walking distance (or the chariot bike...), but also in a lovely residential neighbourhood with numerous cafes, restaurants and bars. You won't go hungry or thirsty. There is also a good supermarket at the end of the street.
I suppose our only slight negative was the noise on the street during the weekend nights - there is a bar on the corner, where a lot of people tended to stand outside, which was quite loud. Still, our wee boy was so exhausted by bedtime that he would have slept through an earthquake. Copenhagen itself is a great place to go for a family holiday, and we would highly recommend buying a Copenhagen Card, which covers all public transport (metro, bus, train, boats) and entry into over 70 attractions. This includes the zoo (polar bears are amazing), the Blu Planet (incredible location by the sea and best playpark in the city), Carlsberg Brewery (if you need 2 free beers for breakfast in a sunny courtyard...) all the museums and galleries and of course Tivoli (take plenty cash for food and rides...it will bleed you dry). We found one of the best places to eat was the fabulous Street Food market on Paper Island. Vibrant, delicious, affordable and a stunning location overlooking the water and the city. We will definitely be back :) Thanks Johan and family!
