Our guide
Our recommendations
- Kosher dining options are limited - coordinate meals in advance through the synagogue or Chabad house.
- Check availability of Shabbat and holiday meals at the kosher restaurants or the local Chabad house at least a few days in advance.
Stay in the kosher area of Copenhagen
Copenhagen does not have one obvious Jewish quarter. Chabad of Denmark (Chabad house listed on the site) is the anchor - book a hotel within walking distance of it rather than picking a random part of Copenhagen.
To count as a booking, finish it in the same window after you click - it isn't saved for tomorrow.
