Danish Design - Royal Hotel

Jeg var inviteret på hotelrundvisning i dag, og det var ikke bare et hvilket som helst hotel. Det var Radisson Blue Royal Hotel i København. Hotellet og alt indeni er designet af den danske arkitekt og designer Arne Jacobsen. Vi blev guided rundt af en ildsjæl, der havde været ansat der siden 1980. Det var 'hans' hotel. Jeg bliver altid betaget af passionerede mennesker, og han sagde, at han kunne fortælle i timevis. Vi var der flere timer, og jeg synes slet ikke, at jeg fik hørt nok. Dagen blev sluttet af med en vidunderlig middag i restauranten.

En dessert, der var kalorierne værd - A dessert worth the calories!

Blomsterne på hotellet er ochideer - Arne Jacobsens yndlingsblomst -

The flowers at the hotel are all orchids - Arne Jacobsen's favorite flower

I was invited to a guided tour at a hotel today, and it wasn't any hotel. It was Radisson Blue Royal Hotel in Copenhagen. The hotel itself and all the interior is designed by the Danish architect and designer Arne Jacobsen. We were guided by a very engaged person, who had been working there since 1980. It was 'his' hotel. I am always fascinated by people who are passionated about what they do, and he said that he could talk about it for hours. We were there several hours, and I don't think that I heard enough. The day ended with a wonderful dinner at the restaurant.
