Set in the Aarhus suburb of Hasselager, this hostel offers free parking with charging stations for electric cars and basic rooms with free Wi-Fi access. Aarhus city centre is 10 km away.

Rooms at Aarhus Hostel og Hotel have either private or shared bathroom facilities. All rooms have a area work desk and a chair.

It is a very calming , peaceful location , very clean and well organized. We didn't have to take meals in restaurants, because there is a kitchen with everything you need to prepare and to store poducts (refridgerator...). The beds were very compfortable , and allthough there was no climatecontrol in the rooms, it hadn't been hot or cold. A very nice way to spend holydays in Danmark with family without spending lots of money for unnecessary luxury, restaurants.

    Great value for money. Cheap and central. We were literally just there to sleep and break up a long driving day, and it was fine for that. Walls are paper thin, shower is a classic Danish one over the toilet. Great bunk bed for my son. Honestly, I was very happy given it was a last minute booking and paid quite a bit less than the alternatives.

    Fun indoor minigolf-course, great fun for families. Rooms are sound proof from the bar and communal areas than can get quite busy and loud with people having drinks and hanging out in the evenings. Good breakfast. Great location.

    Everything works brilliantly here. Free lockers to store your luggage on departure, knowledgeable, friendly staff, great breakfast, fantastic location. We loved playing mini golf (extra charge) and the place had a calm but fun atmosphere. A mixture of families, backpackers and local young people populate the spacious communal areas. It feels safe and well thought out with lots of little ‘extras’ give it a feeling if a hotel rather than a hostel. The rooms themselves are equally well designed.

    I like how cheap this Hostel was. The cheapest place to stay in Aarhus. It's nice the hotel has a restaurant you can order breakfast, lunch or dinner from throughout the day. The staff at the register were friendly and helpful. The Hostel was very clean, cleaner than I expected.

    The "capsule" is a bed with a bit more privacy thanks to the curtain. Classic youth hostel otherwise, close to the center.
