This is what a hostel in movies looks like. Modern, hip with cool facilities, yet clean and not a crazy party place. The beds are comfortable and there's a lot of privacy in "capsule-like" beds. It's also very clean. Its often full and it's not hard to see why. I will return to it as my first hostel choice in Cph.

Great location and felt very safe. We didn't explore too much but it looked like there were plenty of takeaways around that the staff encouraged us to buy from and bring back. The building was only a few minutes walk from a Metro and S-Train station. The hostel is around 15 minutes from the central station by metro and 40 minutes from the airport. There were activities for the guests, a movie night when we were there (complete with popcorn)! The bar area had a really nice atmosphere and staff were very welcoming. There looked to be laundry machines available for use for a small fee. There's plenty of guidance on good things to do (and maybe skip) in the area and there is bike rental available. Beds were comfy with USB ports. Each room/tent had well sized lockers big enough for two large backpacks. Padlocks are available to buy at reception. My friend moaned in his sleep but hey they can't do anything about that! No issues with noise other than that. Bathrooms were clean and felt up-market. Breakfast was really cheap and the food was nice, with warm buns and continental meats and unlimited coffee. I've not stayed in many hostels because I was a bit anxious about them but I really liked this one and can highly recommend it!

This hostel was fantastic! I really liked the lounge room/bar at the front entrance. I started out in a 6-bed female dorm, but decided to change after one night because of snoring issues (both me and my roommates). The staff was super accomodating and were able to find me a private room (I paid the difference, of course) but I was so much happier there. The bathrooms (in both the dorm room and the private room) were always clean and well-maintained. In fact, the shower head had broken on my first night in the dorm room and someone came by promptly the next morning to fix it. The staff was super friendly and the location was primo (one block from the train station with restaurants all around). I loved staying here and will do so again whenever I return to Copenhagen.

We stayed in the Family room, which was great. Extra crib requested was provided and was of really great quality (I did not get a confirmation it would be provided before our arrival though). The location was great for us since we didn't want to drive into the center of the city and there were multiple, convenient public transport options easily accesible that would get you to the center quickly (we used the DOT public transport app).

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

Great location and easily accessible. Double pods were comfy and modern with lights, extraction fan and PowerPoints. Pin pad access was hit and miss but got there in the end. Great value for money in a city with limited hostels on offer when you’re on a budget.

Kind staff well oriented to help and fix problems. The outlet in my bed didn't work and they inmediately changed me to another room before the check in. It was a better accomodation without extra charge. Good service. Really comfortable bed, good wifi conection, clean room, capsules with code which give you privacy and so safe to keep your belogings inside. Better location imposible, just in the Nyhavn. And all this for a cheap price. It exceeded my expectations, I would be glad to come back to this hostel

Great combo of hotel & hostel. My solo room was bright, clean, and comfortable, though small. Lots of social space--games, pub, outdoor seating, events, buffet breakfast with good variety. Can mingle or be alone comfortably. Staff very friendly, helpful, and efficient. Great location--just two blocks from Kongens Nytorv & very close to many historic sites! Felt very safe. I'll stay here again!

Rooms were really clean, small but good organized. I really liked how they put four people who had the same check in and check out date. Other than that the kitchen is very cheap to use, with a lot of options. I can easily say it was the best hostel I have ever stayed.

Copenhagen is expensive, and this is a really good budget option. I had a private room with shared bathroom and was very pleased all round. The Hostel is busy with a seemingly non stop bar and warnings about it being a noisy place. I wasn't disturbed at all up on the 4th floor. My room was quite quirky with a train carriage theme - 2 bunk beds and a very comfy double. Shared bathroom directly across the corridor, which was very convenient. And a great location for exploring the city.
