RADISSON BLU ROYAL
The Radisson Blu Royal Hotel in Copenhagen is one of the city's most famous hotels, as they call it the world's first designer hotel. It's a Scandinavian Airlines (SAS) hotel designed by the famed architect Arne Jacobsen. SAS built it in the 1960s particularly for those travelers who'd just completed a transatlantic flight from North America.

1960s
The hotel probably looks much like it did back in the '60s . What I loved is that the hotel lobby is filled with Egg and Swan chairs designed by Fritz Hansen and Arne Jacobsen. I'm part Danish, and growing up we had one of these chairs in our living room and all my friends would come over to spin around in it. I had no clue how special they were.



Arne JACOBSEN SUITE
The location of the hotel is ideal, and if you are a design aficionado you are sure to love it. Be sure to see if you can get a tour of the Arne Jacobsen suite, which hasn't been touched since the 1960s. If you want to stay there, I think it goes for $5,000 a night.

RANDOM ROOM OBSERVATIONS

-If you want to sleep in, put the Do Not Disturb sign on the door, because the maids knocked at 8:20 a.m. to clean.
-The bathroom was sparkling clean.
-The views from the higher floors are the best in the city and the windows open.
-To operate the ironing board, one needs a college degree from Europe.
-There's free Internet and an iron and ironing board.
