I think that Zelandia is the latin name for Sjælland (zealand in England) and Sjælland is the Island where Copenhagen is located.
So you have to be more precise :D
Hmmm, just goes to show you how litttle we know about your country.
Can you Google: Dancenter 38655 - this is the vacation rental by owner site they have rented for the week and includes a map.
Thanks again.

The Brilliance will be docked at C190 Langeliniekaj.
Most commuter trains coming from the rest of Sjælland and southern Sweden stops at the nearby Østerport station and so does all the S-trains (except the circle line).
What is the name of the town they are staying in?
If I know in what direction they will come from i can suggest a S-train or commuter train station they can park at.
There is only some shops, a kiosk, a sandwich place and a place to buy icecream so no restaurants bars or proper cruise terminal.
Thanks for your quick response. They will be staying in Zelandia, Denmark.

Hello Danish Viking,
You are providing a wonderful service to all of us 1st time visitors to Denmark so thanks in advance for all your efforts.
We are arriving in Copenhagen for the day on Brilliance of the Seas on May 16th. At this point, I don't even know where the ship docks - does Royal Caribbean always dock in the same port and do you know which one that is?
We are trying to meet up to spend the day with some Canadian friends who will be staying about 90 min outside the city after their earlier cruise.
Their thoughts on getting together.....
"I imagine we would drive in to a Metro station on the outskirts and then take the subway to the cruise terminal where we could connect with you."
So we are trying to figure out a place to meet them that will be relatively easy for both of us to find and to find each other and that can be arranged in advance as I doubt either of us will have phones that work in Denmark.
Is there an actual cruise terminal that non-cruisers would be allowed in? Or perhaps, is the metro station close enough for us to walk & meet them there? Would a nearby cafe be better?
We would appreciate any suggestions you can offer.
Thanks so much for all your help.

SHIP: Solstice
CABIN #: 1289
DECK #: 10
CLASS: concierge - tho we only saw the cabin attendant 3 times in 7 days.
AREA: Aft - Port - Approx. 26-30 cabins aft of the central elevators & library.
BED NEAR: Balcony
QUIET?: Yes & No. Cabin directly across from doorway in which attendant is moving carts so there is that occasional noise. Also, with our TV off, you could hear the drone of conversation from cabin 1287, but not the words.
BALCONY VIEW: Unobstructed. Enjoyed a lot of time on the balcony.
BALCONY SIZE: Average
WIND A PROBLEM?: No
SOOT A PROBLEM?: No
PROBLEMS/COMMENTS: We really loved the understated elegance of the Solstice. Didn't think much of the advance advertising about the lawn, but found ourselves spending a lot of our time up there, playing bocce, croquet, and listening to live music. Loved watching the artists blowing glass at the Corning Glass Show.
Hotel de la Ville, Civitavecchia
in Italy Ports
Posted
We have stayed at the Hotel De La Ville in Civitavecchia twice in the last 2 years and have it booked again for next fall. It is on the main street, on a broad walking boardwalk facing the ocean with lots of restaurants & shopping nearby. We've always stayed on the 2nd floor that has a balcony where you can stand & see the water (but high balcony walls & no furniture!). Breakfast is quite good - warm eggs, etc and fresh coffees. The hotel is just a few doors down from the train station and you can also get a bus to the port from there. Have to go into the train station to get your free ticket and then queue up for the bus. Used to be able to walk to the port & get a bus inside, but now need to get transport outside to get into the port.
