Copenhagen boasts two excellent free information resources:
Use It
, centrally located at the back of the Huset complex at RA?dhusstrA¦de 13 in the heart of Indre By (mid-June to mid-Sept daily 9am-7pm; mid-Sept to mid-June Mon-Fri 10am-4pm; tel 33 15 65 18), and the
Wonderful Copenhagen
tourist office just outside Central Station at Bernstorffsgade 1 (personal callers only May Mon-Fri 9am-5pm, Sat 9am-2pm, Sun 9am-1pm; June to mid-Sept daily 9am-6pm; mid-Sept to April Mon-Fri 9am-5pm, Sat 9am-noon;
www.woco.dk
).
If you want to book accommodation before you arrive, Wonderful Copenhagen runs a telephone booking line (Mon-Sat 10am-4pm tel 33 25 38 44). Both offices can provide details of accommodation (budget accommodation only at Use It; all price ranges at Wonderful Copenhagen), eating, drinking and entertainment venues. Use It also holds mail and stores luggage, and in summer issues Playtime , a small but extremely useful free English-language newspaper packed with listings. The Wonderful Copenhagen office provides countrywide information and distributes the free quarterly Copenhagen This Week - an up-to-date news and listings magazine - as well as an excellent, free fold-out map which shows all city bus routes, attractions and most hotels.
The
maps
at the back of this book and those handed out by the tourist offices should be sufficient for most purposes. If you need something more detailed, the Kraks Citykort is the definitive map of Copenhagen; you can buy it either in book form (130kr; covering a large part of Zealand), or fold-out form (80kr; covering the city centre and suburbs only). Both are available at major bookstores. Other useful information
