Cars 4 Rental Guide To Accomodation in  Denmark

Contact the Danish Tourist Board (see Contact Addresses section) for information on booking hotels and for details of the savings from the use of a Scandinavian Bonus Pass (which must be applied for in advance) or Inn Cheques. HOTELS: Travellers without reservations can book at one of the provincial tourist offices. Denmark’s fine beaches attract many visitors, and there are hotels and pensions in all major seaside resorts. For more information or a list of hotels, contact HORESTA (Association of the Danish Hotel, Restaurant and Tourism Industry), Vodroffsvej 46, DK-1900 Frederiksberg C (tel: 3524 8080; fax: 3524 8086; e-mail: horesta@horesta.dk; website: www.danishhotels.dk or www.horesta.dk) or the Danish Tourist Board (see Contact Addresses section). Grading: Hotels are graded with 1-5 stars. Approximately 470 hotels and holiday centres (some 85 per cent of Denmark’s total hotel capacity) that are members of HORESTA are taking part in the grading scheme. The Danish Tourist Board publishes an annual list of about 1000 establishments, describing facilities and tariffs; quoted prices are inclusive of MOMS (VAT). Green Key certificates: A number of hotels and hostels in Denmark are also participating in a grading scheme based on environmental concerns. To receive an eco-friendly certificate (a so-called ‘Green Key’), participating establishments have to fulfil 55 strict ecological criteria. For further details and a list of Green Key hotels and hostels, contact The Green Key (see HORESTA address above; website: www.dengroennenoegle.dk). Back to Top INNS: Excellent inns are to be found all over the country. Some are small and only cater for local custom, but others are tailored for the tourist and have established high culinary reputations for both international dishes and local specialities. For further details, contact the Danish Tourist Board. Back to Top BED AND BREAKFAST: There are private rooms to let, usually for 1 night, all over Denmark. Signs along the highway with Zimmer frei or Vrelse on them indicate availability of accommodation; those who call in and enquire will find that arrangements are easily made. In Copenhagen rooms can be booked in person through the Tourist Information Department for a small fee. Local tourist offices may be contacted, either by writing or in person. Back to Top SELF-CATERING: Chalets are available in various parts of the country. Back to Top CAMPING/CARAVANNING: Campers must purchase a camping carnet, available at campsites. Over 500 campsites are officially recognised and graded for facilities and shelter. Prices vary greatly; it is half price for children under 4 years. Grading: 1-5 stars controlled by the Danish Camping Board; approved sites carry the sign of a pyramid-shaped tent. 5-star sites: Fulfil the highest requirements. 3-star sites: Showers, razor points, shops, laundry facilities, kitchen facilities. 1-star sites: Fulfil minimum requirements for sanitary installations, drinking water etc. For more information and a list of campsites contact the Danish Tourist Board (see Contact Addresses section). Back to Top YOUTH AND FAMILY HOSTELS: There are 100 Youth and Family Hostels scattered around the country, all of which take members of affiliated organisations. A membership card from the National Youth Hostel Association is required. Hostels are classified from 1-5 stars. For a list of youth and family hostels contact Danhostel, Vesterbrogade 39, DK-1620 Copenhagen V, Denmark (tel: 3331 3612; fax: 3331 3626; e-mail: ldv@danhostel.dk; website: www.danhostel.dk); or the Danish Tourist Board (see Contact Addresses section). Back to Top FARMHOUSE HOLIDAYS: Rooms are often available for rent in farmhouses. Visitors stay as paying guests of the family and, although it is not expected, are welcome to help with the daily chores of the farm. Alternatively, in some cases separate apartments are available close to the main farmhouse. Many farms have their own fishing streams. All holiday homes and farmhouses are inspected and approved by the local tourist office. Back to Top HOME EXCHANGE: Introductions between families interested in home exchange for short periods can be arranged. The major expense for participants is travel plus a fee of DKr500. The best period (because of school holidays) is from late June to early August. The following organisation can provide further information: HomeLink Denmark, Dansk Bolig Bytte, PO Box 53, Bernstorffsvej 71A, DK-2900 Hellerup (tel: 3961 0405; fax: 3961 0525; e-mail: bed@bbdk.dk; website: www.bbdk.dk).
