I love te distribution of the hostel, the rooftop is top!. Friendly staff and easy access to our rooms. Also they had several activities that you can do, meeting people all over the world and fair prices in food and beverages. Clean rooms and showers.

If you're unsure about a staying at a hostel, but Copenhagen is just too damn expensive and you're skimming through the reviews for a sign, this is it: go ahead and make that booking!! The premises were always clean - showers and toilets included - good air circulation in all the rooms and common areas. The place has a serene atmosphere and guests adjust to it - I felt everyone was respectful and considerate of others. The staff - Chiharu, Helene and Luis were kind and always ready to help. If you're traveling with friends or want to hang out at a bar - I would recommend Mikkeller Bar across the street. For food I would also recommend Cofoco just a few meters away on the same street. To sum it up in one sentence: not a hotel but better than your average hostel!

I had an amazing 2-night stay at Generator Copenhagen from August 16th to 18th. The check-in and check-out processes were quick and efficient, making my experience smooth from the start. The hostel has a fantastic bar inside, making it an ideal place for solo travelers. The atmosphere is very social, and it was easy to meet fellow travelers and even some locals, who were incredibly friendly. The staff were also amazing—always smiling and ready to help with anything I needed. The location of the hostel is extremely convenient and safe. I arrived late at around 11 PM, and even then, the metro was bustling with people, so I felt completely secure. The walk from the metro to the hostel was short and pleasant, even late at night. What really made my stay special were the people I met and the friendly, welcoming vibe of the place. I highly recommend Generator Copenhagen to solo travelers, and I will definitely stay at other Generator locations in the future!

All hostels in Copenhagen

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is 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 bit 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.
