Hotel 2-Star di Hovedstaden, Denmark

It’s quite loud when other rooms open the door. Not strongly recommend for those who could sleep hardly. It’s like someone trying to open your door for all day and night. However, other than that it’s good for both location and service.

Copenhagen Downtown Hostel – Capsule Stay Review This was my first time staying in a capsule hotel in Copenhagen (£80 per night), after hearing positive feedback from friends who had travelled here. I decided to try the quiet zone option with a comfortable capsule located near the hostel facilities. Pros: • Excellent location in the heart of the city, with restaurants, bars, and cafés within walking distance. • Easy access to all main attractions. • The capsule area was clean and the bed was comfortable. However, I left with mixed feelings. While the location and cleanliness met expectations, the hostel’s operation style felt more “self-service” and less attentive to guest concerns. On the first night, my sleep was disrupted by a guest in the quiet zone who was both noisy and snored loudly throughout the night. It affected everyone in the vicinity, and despite some guests (myself included) gently knocking to try and reduce the disturbance, it continued until morning. On the second night, the same issue occurred, but it was made worse by a sudden emergency alarm at around 4:45 AM, requiring all guests to evacuate and wait outside for inspection before returning to bed. Understandably, safety comes first, but the timing and the combination of disturbances made it impossible to rest. When I tried to contact staff in the middle of the night, there was no one available, so I had to raise the issue through Trip.com. Although staff later offered some coins as a goodwill gesture, it did not feel proportionate to the £80 per night rate... especially when nearby private rooms can be found for much less. Sadly, what I hoped would be a unique and comfortable stay turned into a frustrating experience. I will not be returning, and I would advise light sleepers to consider alternatives.

We have been here regularly for more than 15 years, so we know what to expect. This time we booked late, so the price was a little higher than usual. The location is perfect for trips to city center and the airport is the next exit from the highway. Parking is free and just outside the entrance. Rooms are simple but light and spacious. Despite being close to highway, train station and airport it is quite quiet. Breakfast is good and starts already at 5 o'clock..

The hotel is in easy walking distance from the Grand Central Station and the Tivoli Gardens, 10-15 mins. The room was super clean, small but with own shower and toilet and quiet. You can also open the window for clean fresh air. On the other side of the hotel you can walk along the river all the way to the Little Mermaid and there are restaurants and bars alongside the river. They have secure locked storage if you want to leave your luggage for a small fee. There’s a communal lounge area in the lobby you can have a drink and or work a little. Not a lot of amenities but it works very well and efficient for an easy stay if you are out all day. I found some nice coffee shops in walking distance close by too. And you can swim in the area close by on the river too. The young man at the reception very friendly and helpful.

The room is quite spacious with three beds, though the hotel feels a bit dated. A major issue, however, is the shower space in the bathroom; once you pull the shower curtain, it becomes so narrow that it is very easy to accidentally touch the scalding hot faucet. Aside from that, everything else was perfectly fine.

The room was kinda dirty. We had to move to put the beds together. So, we saw that every corner had kind of trash and stuff left by previous guests. The wifi was horrible in our room. If we didn’t have e-sims, that would cause us problem. Other than that, we just needed a place to sleep. Breakfast was alright. If you are looking for a place to sleep, that is reasonable.

My stay at a&o Hostel København Nørrebro was a mixed bag, leading to my 3 out of 5 rating. On the positive side, the hostel does offer a shared kitchen, which was a great amenity. It allowed for budget-conscious travellers like myself to prepare some of our own meals, saving money on dining out in Copenhagen. This flexibility was definitely a plus. However, the breakfast provided by the hostel was very simple. While it served its basic purpose, it lacked variety and wasn't particularly exciting. It would have been nice to have a few more options available to start the day. Overall, a&o Hostel København Nørrebro provides a decent budget accommodation option, especially with the inclusion of a shared kitchen. However, those looking for a more substantial and varied breakfast might be left wanting. The 3-star rating reflects this balance of a useful shared kitchen against a rather basic breakfast offering.

I know this is a cheap stay, so I wasn’t expecting five-star service, but there are a few things I wish had been better. First, they couldn’t find my name in the system during check-in, so I had to wait while the front desk manually created a new booking for me. It was stressful, especially since they initially told me I wouldn’t be able to stay if they couldn’t locate my reservation. Second, my room had an unpleasant odor—like old carpet mixed with sweat. There was also a foul smell coming from the shower drain, and I found someone else’s hair in several places, including the shower and even on the pillow. BUT the location can’t be beat. It’s close to great cafés, restaurants, and almost everything is within walking distance. It’s also near a metro station, which made commuting so much easier. Ultimately, the convenience of the location made up for the negatives. So if you’re okay with those negatives, it can be a great option for a solo traveler who wants to save money on accommodation.

I can’t imagine a better location for a stay in Copenhagen. Being right next to the main train station made exploring the city incredibly easy and convenient. The room was just the right size for a couple, and the in-room sink was a thoughtful touch that made getting ready in the mornings and evenings much smoother. The shared bathrooms were also a pleasant surprise — each toilet and shower had its own private cubicle, which felt much more comfortable and well-designed compared to typical hostel setups. The room didn’t have air conditioning, but the fan provided was more than enough for me, even though I normally run hot. We noticed the room could feel a bit stuffy with the windows closed, so we tried to keep them open as much as possible. The downside was that the street noise from people and cars at night sometimes disturbed our sleep. The only other drawback was the luggage storage. It’s not included in the stay, and there’s an extra charge of 40 DKK per bag for the day, plus a 5 DKK service fee per bag. A small detail, but something worth knowing in advance.

I slept in women tent. The staff is super nice. And super useful guide to explore Copenhagen if you join the WhatsApp group. There’s port on bed for charging. A locker for you to put stuff. And the location is fantastic. Easy to get around the city by transportation nearby. They don’t have a kitchen but you can buy food to eat in the bar and there are many cafes, McDonald’s, street food and bar nearby. They have big washroom and seperate toilet and washroom that you dun have to worry about peeing yourself. And they have a bar. The room space is not big. And there’s many dust under the charging port on bed. But overall I think it’s fine.
