Is one of the Guldsmeden chain of boutique hotels, and is a wonderful haven of luxury in funky Vesterbro. Four-poster beds, flat screen TVs, slipper baths with claw feet, and a stonkingly good organic buffet breakfast. Knowledgeable and friendly staff - a great base for Copenhagen. There's another branch called the Carlton, and another planned for 2007.
Vesterbrogade 107, 10-15 mins walk from the station.

A Michelin-starred restaurant that specialises in and celebrates Nordic cuisine, and where I had the best dining experience of my life in September. Expect plenty of shellfish, local herbs and ingredients and some very clever ideas on your plate. Staff are wonderful too. It was so good - I'm going again in December!
A fairy tale thatched cottage restaurant (hence the name - the Yellow Cottage) on the Danish Riviera, overlooking the beach, which serves fantastic Modern Danish food. Just 20 mins from Copenhagen station so a great day out too. It's tiny though (seats about 15!) so you'll need to book.

(5 mins walk from Klampenborg station, get outside, turn right and head towards the water!)
An excellent herring restaurant with a great selection of this classic Danish delicacy, helpful waitresses and plenty of tables outside to enjoy the Nyhavn atmosphere and views.
Nyhavn 5, overlooking the water and boats
