Dear guest
Welcome to Kaj Hotel. We are delighted to host you on our precious little houseboat hotel – which we have built ourselves. This is a list of nice to know and need to know, that we hope you will respect. We have also made a list of ‘things to do in the area’ – as there are a lot of cool little hidden places in this hood for you to explore.
The only rules you MUST respect
TOILETS
As the toilet is connected to a pump system, NOTHING apart from natural waste and toilet paper can be flushed out in the toilet. This strict restriction includes tampons, cotton, ear sticks, condoms, any kind of tissues – basically nothing. PLEASE respect this, as the toilet will stop functioning and we need to engage a plumber at your expense.
And NO SMOKING inside.
Other practical nice-to-know’s
WIFI
Name: Kajhotel // code: Guest57z
IN CASE OF EMERGENCY
You will find a fire-extinguisher in the lefthand drawer by the end of the bed. In the right hand drawer you will find a ‘first aid kid’ and in the same drawer as the portable stow there is a fire blanket.
HEATING
When you turn on the heat-pump, make sure to point the remote control at the pump, and make sure you hear a ‘bib’ – give it 2 min. to start. Don’t panic. It can heat up the room very fast Please turn the heating off when you leave the room (bathroom floor and heat pump). Remote is behind curtain.
HOT/WATER
We are supplied with water from ’main land’. The water is fresh Copenhagen drinking water supplied from the chalk underground. So don’t worry – you can perfectly drink it.
We have a 60 liter boiler – so if more than 2 people, please expect a 20 min. break between showers.
WINDOWS
Have a ‘filter’ on the lower part – so no one can look inside. So no need to take the curtains down.
COFFEE/TEA
Please help yourself to the coffee (brewed on the plunger) and tea we have provided. And let us know if you run out, so we can provide you with more.
PORRIDGE
The innovative chef Bo Lindegaard is the man behind Kaj Hotels organic porridge mix. We have provided you with all the necessary ingredients: milk, fruit, juice and sugar – to make it just like you prefer. Please be aware/do not eat it, if you are allergic to any of the following ingredients: oatmeal, rye flakes, dinkel wheat, flax seeds, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, grounded; cinnamon, vanilla, ginger, cardamom, fennel, salt & sugar.

GARBAGE/WASTE
There is a small container for garbage in the drawer under the sink– or you can use the ‘basket’ on the floor (for dry garbage; bottles and plastic). If you want to leave it outside, make sure you place it in the blue plastic container, as the seagulls will attack it if left in the open.
FURNITURE
The furniture can be moved around as you prefer. The 2 black stools can be taken out on the balcony used as extra chairs around the small yellow table. The table can be placed outside and inside. Only remember to take the stools inside during the night/if raining.
KAYAKS/SUPBOARD
Are located underneath the house, and are for your availability free of charge. Please make sure both kayaks are back on the ponton (and not in the water) when you leave KAJ. And please hang the wests and the paddles back on their hooks after use.
SAUNA
Is our newest addition to the stay. You need to turn it on 1 hour before usage, as it takes some time to heat up. It only reaches 70 degrees. But with water on the hot stones the damp will make it up to you. Remember to leave the ‘ventilation’ in ceiling open! Since the draft is important for the heating.
Please do not throw salt water on the sauna. Only water from the house.
SWIM SHOES
We have kindly been donated a pair of Soft Aqua swim shoes from Norbaek in all sizes from 33-48. They are hanging on small hooks under the house/Towards the sauna. Feel free to wear them – and hang them back, please. If you want to buy a pair we have some in stock. Or you can go to their website and enter the code: KAJHOTEL and get a 15% offer on your purchase.
PRIVATE
We encourage you to put the ‘PRIVATE’ sign up on the gangway, as people passing by tend to walk all the way up to the windows, if it is not on.
GROCERIES/SHOPPING
The nearest supermarket is ‘NETTO’ further down Danneskiold-Samsøes Alle (this road) on your left (just after you have passed a canal) 10 min walking.
SWIMNING
We highly encourage you to go for a swim/dip. The water in the Copenhagen harbour is clean – but take care of all the boat traffic in the canal or just stay safe in our private pool under the house.
SITTING SUITS/MERCH
If you want to sit outside, please help yourself to wrap yourself up in one of our amazing oversized ‘jackets’ AKA sitting suits. If you want to buy one to bring home, we have a few extra in stock for 995 kr.
We have also placed a sample of our merch: SWEATER Navy blue and T-SHIRTS (white and grey) in the TOTEBAG up on the mezzanine. Let us know if you would like to try other sizes.
SLIPPERS
Are left in the righthand drawer at the end of the bed. We kindly ask you to place them outside of the drawer if you have used them, so we know that they need to be washed or put in the freezer for 24 hours, before our next guests arrive.
TAKEAWAY
If you download the WOLT app – or go to www.wolt.com you can order takeaway from all over the city – brought to the door step.
TAXI
Either call (45) 27 27 27 27 or download the app (taxi Cap online). The app is the only way for you to ‘communicate’ with the driver if you have a foreign number. If you call them up, tell them to google ‘Kaj Hotel’ to find the location.
REMEMBER TO HAVE A GREAT TIME – and always to call us on our mobiles, if you are in doubt about anything, so we can guide you in how to do things.
