Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
In the heart of Copenhagen, this central pad is a great base for those exploring the city. The popular Strøget shopping district is on your doorstep, with restaurants, bars and boutiques within easy reach. And for sightseeing ventures across town, the Rådhuspladsen Metro stop is a five-minute walk away. Back home, the design is contemporary rather than charming, while the quiet courtyard is a nice bonus. The sofa bed adds flexibility for larger groups and the dining table doubles up as a handy workspace, but do keep in mind that some street noise should be expected here.

Local guide
About Rådhuspladsen
Even though it’s not technically a neighbourhood, Rådhuspladsen is bang in the middle of Copenhagen - and it’s also the most expensive street on the Danish Monopoly board, so it’s safe to say that it’s got a lot going for it. Other than being home to Copenhagen City Hall, Rådhuspladsen is also surrounded by tonnes of souvenir shops and chain restaurants. If the wind is blowing in the right direction,...
