I will be visiting Denmark later this year with family for a wedding and wanted to ask about wheelchair accessibility as I am struggling to find a clear answer anywhere.
We will be flying into Copenhagen, and from there are supposed to be traveling via train to get to Stevns town hall. Will there be any issues with this? Getting off or on the train or out of the stations?
Also, from what I gather, buses are generally wheelchair accessible in the capitol but I have no idea about elsewhere. From the town hall, we are supposed to be going to Solgårdsparken to take some nice photos and will need the bus to get there. Wanting to check that I will be able to get onto the bus without issue, are there ramps to get onto the bus?
Lastly, if you are a wheelchair user are there any hotels in Copenhagen that you particularly recommend? Thank you.

ktvqfjcI don’t know how it is in that area with busses, but in my town busses are generally pretty low, and the middle exit is wide to accommodate bicycles, baby carriages and wheelchairs, if you have someone to help you a wheelchair should be no problem.
With trains it’s a bit harder, there are generally two train types, IC3 which is an older model, there you will need to contact the train station or DSB ahead of time to arrange for someone to get out a ramp for you to get on the train, there is always a bicycle carriage where bicycles and wheelchairs can fit in during the trip, it’s can be a good idea to pay for a seat reservation there ahead of time.
The newer IC4 trains are low to the ground on the bicycle carriage part, and just like with the bus it should be no issue as long as you have a helper.
