The first thing we did was find a flight from Barcelona to Copenhagen that fit the dates we had. At the end and after shuffling several options, we chose to fly with Primera Air, an airline with which we have never flown, but that at first visit and being low cost, does not look bad, although it must be said that it has some restrictions quite strict luggage, since for example, in addition to the required measures, hand luggage for trip to Copenhagen may not exceed 10 kilos.
With the flight already purchased, we started looking for accommodation, trying as always to find something that was central enough to be able to return comfortably if necessary and also be close to the hotel to go and return to the places to see in Copenhagen essential.
After discarding the first options that did not meet what we were looking for, in the end we opted to stay at the Nora Hotel Copenhagen, which will be our accommodation during Copenhagen in 4 days.
