At Urban House Copenhagen, guests can choose between private rooms with a bathroom or dormitories with shared facilities. All rooms include linen, towels and individual reading lights. Dorm rooms provide personal lockers.

We took our trip to Copenhagen as a three-generation-3 ladies band and it exceeded our expectations on all levels, including our stay at Meiningen Urban House. Amazing vibe right from the beginning, all-age hostel where all are welcome. More than helpful staff, great room, warm and "homey" feeling when we got back from our sightseeing, amazing breakfasts. And on top, probably best location. All three of us (10y, 42y and 64y) highly recommend the Urban House. Oh, and even the weather was much better than expected, though cold, no rain or wid, and we even got some snow!

Check-in and check out were very smooth. They are well organised. You can book a breakfast which is good for that money, and all recommendations to book it. The room was clean and enough spacious for two people. The bed was ok, but the pillows were a bit soft for my taste. The bathroom was very clean, and we had everything we needed. They clean the room every day.

    Everything was perfect, this was honestly the best hostel I have ever stayed in, there was plenty of activities happening every day, the staff was really friendly, rooms were small, but comfortable, they have amazing cheap drinks in several bars, and we also enjoyed the breakfast and pizza buffets available every day. Also the location is great, just 8 minutes to the central station. Perfect accommodation!

    Friendly staff, super great location, you have a Netto supermarket just in front of the building. The communal lounge area is amazing with pool tables, comfy chairs, and a terrace. The hostel is clean overall, no surprise by Nordic standards actually. You have lockers in the rooms as well that are assigned to your bed, just make sure to bring a padlock, although it's super safe in Copenhagen. In short, the stay is really nice there, if you come with friends you won't get bored, if you come alone it's quite convenient.

    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.
