    Amazing city - I went with the wife last year and will definitely be going back regularly. People are very friendly and standards are very high. Favourite city in the world after NY!

    Our room at the SAS Radisson Blu Royal designed by Arne Jacobsen. WELL WORTH STAYING AT! It's not too pricey - but the price is well worth the design features in the lobby and the rooms - ask for a corner room overlooking the station!

    Lots of great boutique shops that kind of made me think of downtown manhattan.

    Look for NORSE PROJECTS store - nice clothing! and it's cheaper than anywhere else in the world as it's made here.

    If you love furniture then check out http://designmuseum.dk/en
    There's lots of great modern furniture stores too - this shop is truly amazing http://www.illumsbolighus.com/

    Nice design bookstores everywhere!

    Eating - DO NOT go to Geist!
    It's pretentious shit at stupid prices.
    Recommend Pate Pate http://www.patepate.dk/

    You really can't go wrong eating out in Copenhagen. They seem to have quite a high standard of living there and must expect good food even from little sandwich shops.

    Definitely get a bike and just cruise around the city - it's so much fun and very safe (even for people not really that experienced or confident in cycling in city centres)

    Visit AIAIAI HQ for some new headphones ;)

    If you've never seen any kind of "Stonerville" at festivals etc then Christiana is possibly worth a visit but it is pretty rundown.
