A Room With a View in the Hotel Esplanaden
This photo was shot from our westward-facing window in the Comfort Hotel Esplanaden, Bredgade 78, Copenhagen 1260, Denmark.
Our room was fairly small, I suppose, by American standards, but that didn't matter at all as we didn't spend much time back in the room anyway. The building was old but had been renovated recently, and was much more charming than a Comfort Inn in the States. The hotel itself was in a fantastic location, at the intersection of Bredgade and Esplandaen, about a 750 m. walk down the Bredgade from the Kongens Nytorv and about 350 m. away from the harbour. In other words, it was relatively close to the end of the Stroget but far enough away so that we were completely unaffected by tourist traffic. We were still very close to several attactions: The Museum of Decorative Art was just down the block on Bredgade, while the Resistance Musuem, which chronicles Denmark's fight for freedom during the German occupation during World War II, was just down the block walking east on the Esplanaden. The Little Mermaid was about a 10-15 minute walk away, if you went directly along the harbor.
The street below is the Esplandaen. The green trees on the right are in Churchill Park, conveniently located directly across the street from the hotel entrance.
