The toilet and shower facilities did need a little attention and as always, the hostel has to lose a point for a lack of privacy curtains! Really makes such a big difference particularly if other guests insist on turning on the main room light at all hours of the night, as was the case with this visit—was quite amused to see my bunk mate had resorted to hanging their entire duvet as a makeshift curtain but speaks volumes as to why they should be standard across all hostels. The hostel is in a fairly popular area with a lot of foot and road traffic so can be a little noisy at certain times, but for a location this central I think it’s an acceptable compromise.

First time staying in this particular location but not my first time staying with Generator hostels both within the UK and overseas, haven’t had a negative experience with any of them. This is another hostel chain that frames itself around being young and trendy which is no bad thing if that’s what you’re looking for! They offer plenty of info about events and activities to take part in during your stay. The location of this hostel is fantastic, centrally-located and quite literally over the road from Rosenberg Castle and Copenhagen’s incredible Botanical Gardens/Natural History Museum. Staying here also puts you very close to the shopping streets of Indre By, and Tivoli Gardens is just a short walk away too. Walk right outside the main entrance and there is a Netto supermarket which has decent selection and prices. As at all Generator’s in my experience, the beds are pretty good and comfy compared to similarly priced hostels, and the staff are always chatty and friendly.

Good, standard, no issues

Space between upper and lower bunk not high enough (I am only 5'3"). Could not sit up in bed. Had to duck to get in and out. Hit my head multiple times. As far as I could tell cleaner only cleaned room once in 6 nights. 6 bed dorm should probably only had 4 beds in it.

Great location

Kitchen closed at 9pm. And there's no kitchen for guests to use like in every other hostel, or a fridge to put private food, not even in the 6 people room. Bed mattress could be more comfortable and a bit bigger. Bathroom in the room is very tiny. Staff could be more accommodating.

Hostel has great infrastructure, bar, outdoor and indoor space, games, super complete (lacks guest access to kitchen+fridge). Bed setup is great, with a shelf, two outlets and light, plus a semi-closing to give some privacy. Shower pressure and temperature was great (though very tiny space).

Sink being right near to the bed is not comfortable. Also for 60 euros per night, facilities were not quality

Stayed in May 2024

Breakfast was very poor. In shared room we had a sink inside the sleeping area, not in the bathroom.

15% discount at the bar, comfortable bed, good location

The bed was super stiff and uncomfy. The hotel has only one elivator which is very slow and people love to use it. The price for the stay is backed up by the hotel's location but it has no extra "luxury" No one cleaned our room while we stayed there. I don't know if that is the standard at Generator Copenhagen.

The location was perfect! The food at the restaurant was good and beer was fairly priced ( considering prices in the area)

Stayed in May 2024

Seemed a bit dirty or unmaintained. No toilet paper in the room. I know lodging is expensive but for $145/night I expected at least basic standards. The staff did offer to provide toilet paper if we went to the front desk to pick it up

Great location, helpful staff, fun decor

There was apparently no daily cleaning service, they could perhaps offer this. The room is extremely small, but this is an acceptable tradeoff for the price one is paying.

The location was excellent. In the middle of Copenhagen and just by the Nyhavn. Very good to get around in the basic & top highlights of the city. The staff was super friendly, the price was also fantastic (considering how expensive Copenhagen is).

It felt a bit too much juvenile. But it was the cheapest option in the center of an expensive city, so it makes sense.

Location! It was walking distance from several highlights of the city.

Nothing!

The location is great and in walking distance of many of the main areas. Lots of bars, restaurants and shops nearby. The hostel was great value for money compared to other properties nearby by. There was a great atmosphere in the bar area too!

The curtain close to the bed was too short, allowing the sunlight enter in the room. It wouldn’t be a problem, if the bed wouldn’t be close to the window, so, the sun goes directly to your face.

Fantastic location. The room is small, but cozy, as well the bathroom

The lift issue, I was on the 6th floor and needed to wait for long as there's only one lift

I really like the location and the staff

Stayed in May 2024

I don't find very functional to have the sink inside the rooms since you make so much noise while others might want to sleep.

The location was great! It looked clean and overall the vibe of the hostel was nice.

I didn’t like that the check-out time was at 10 am. I think it is too early.

It was clean, the receptionist was very nice guy.

The bathroom had an unpleasant smell which you could also smell from the bedroom. Not the cleanliness place, had crumbs and dental floss on the floor presumably from the previous stay.

Great budget price hotel. Lovely atmosphere with a bar and lounge area.

Stayed in April 2024

The "shower" was basically a shower head in the middle of the tiny bathroom, no door either. Also there were no hand towels and it seemed like the bathroom had not been cleaned in a while.

Very convenient location, we were able to walk to all of our destinations and never had to take a taxi or Uber.

Perfect location, cool vibe

I didn't like that there were no kitchen for the guests to prepare our own food. The lock for the box under the bed should be same size in all Generator hostels. :) I brought mine which I had bought in Stockholm and it was too small. The sink in the middle of the room is quite uncomfortable to use, since all the others must witness how you brush your teeth. :D

I liked the environment, the location and vibe in the hostel.
