Take the metro directly from the hotel in 12 minutes to The New Harbour. The New Harbour dates back from 1673 and began as a busy trading harbour. Ships from all over the world anchored here and life in the harbour area was dominated by seamen, public houses, girls and parties. The New Harbour became known as 'Nyhavn' (Newharbour)- one word instead of two. The pretty, crooked, old houses, where in times gone by tradesmen occupied, have been beautifully renovated into cosy indoor and outdoor restaurants. Business people, tourists and lots of other people can come to Nyhavn to enjoy a wonderful atmosphere, exellent culinary delights, a cold beer and jazz music. Chit chat a laughter fill the harbour with life and captivate the nostalgia.

The Opera, located at Holmen opposite the Royal Playhouse was inaugurated January 2005. It soon became known as one of the most modern and prominent Opera Houses in the world.

The Banquet on the 4th floor seats 288 guests for a gala dinner. The heart of the Opera House is the auditorium which seats between 1.492 and 1.703 spectators - depending on the orchestra pit configuration. The auditorium can be booked for major conferences or a gala performance composed for the occasion. Opposite the main entrance you will find the small experimenting stage, Takkelloftet.

The Little Mermaid is the most famous and popular tourist attraction in Denmark. The statue, situated on Copenhagen's waterfront, is a national landmark and synonymous with the city.

The statue of The Little Mermaid continues to be 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 thing to the original sits at Langelinie in Copenhagen Harbour. Tours to The Little Mermaid Copenhagen's canal tours all go past the statue of The Little Mermaid at Langelinie. In addition several other guided tours and excursions by bike, bus or foot will take you there. Please note that The Little Mermaid will be in China from 25 March - December 2010.

Concert halls with world-class acoustics The concert venue offers four concert halls - from the great Studio 1 with room for 1,800 audiences to the intimate Studio 4. The concert halls are very different in architecture, but they all have world-class acoustics in common. Japanese acoustic engineer Yasuhisa Toyota, who is behind La Philhamonie de Paris, has insured that each concert hall has variable acoustics. Thus the sound can be adjusted and adapted to different ensembles and musical genres. Wide ranging repertoire DR Koncerthuset primarily offers classical concerts with DR's own orchestras and choirs: Danish National Symphony Orchestra, Danish Radio Sinfonietta, DR Big Band, DR Vocal Ensemble, DR Radio Choir, DR Radio Girls' Choir, DR Youth Ensemble and DR's children's choir. However, you can also attend small-scale jazz concerts in the foyer, chamber music, choral, rock, pop and symphony concerts, guest appearances and large scale rhythmic concerts.
