ORIENTATION – Aarhus pass (trans and museums) if you plan on seeing everything, also bike rental spots (best way to get around, but there are hills). The airport is about 45 minutes from Aarhus.
Lodging:
Helnan Marselis Hotel Strandvejen 25, 8000 Aarhus C +45 8614 4411 - this location is not central, but a short cab ride back to town. All rooms appear to have sea views, which are outstanding. Hotel was going through extensive renovations (Nov 2007), so check on that before booking. Excellent rooms, views. Good breakfast downstairs, as well as a small pub serving local ales.
Attractions:
- Arhusk Domkirke – tallest cathedral in Denmark 10-15:00 free, hours for tower were unreliable.

- Kunstmuseum – looks like a local art spot
