Lots of things to do!

Aarhus - the city with everything you could dream of

There is an energetic beat of the pulse in the vibrant city of Aarhus. With a student population of more than 40,000, Aarhus is Denmark's youngest city - with its sights set firmly on the future. At the same time, however, we keep the past very much alive here in Aarhus, with the oldest city quarters being some of the most atmospheric, bustling and trend-setting in the city.

Enjoy yourself going shopping, relaxing at one of the city's many cafés, or strolling in the woods or along the sandy beaches before taking your pick among the generous selection of restaurants which the city has to offer.

Aarhus is also a centre of art and culture.

As a guest at Hotel Mercur is it easy to explore the "world's smallest metropolis" many sights. For example; the hotel offers accommodation combined with an Aarhus Card. With that in hand you drive for free with local buses and have either free admission or discounts when visiting such as Tivoli Freedom, Aros Aarhus Artmuseum, The Old Town and performances in Musik Huset Concert hall, and the card gives discounts at selected cafes and restaurants. Buses to the city centre stops right outside the door so it could not be easier.

Do not miss the charming Latin Quarter behind the cathedral, with its many small and fun shops and lively cafés by the river, and it is a balm for the soul to take a trip out into the Marselisborg forests only 5 to 10 minutes drive from the Hotel Mercur. And though Aarhus is a city with over 300,000 inhabitants, you will find glorious beaches only a few kilometres from the hotel.
