The hotel was really helpful. My 2 sons travelled to Copenhagen and there was an age restriction at the first hotel we booked. But Generator Copenhagen accepted my sons and they solved the problem in 5 minutes. I’m really grateful for that.

Hi what are the dimensions of the storage under the shared beds in the dorm room & what are the dimensions of the small & large storage at reception?

Hello, Thanks for your message. I don´t know exactly the dimensions of the lockers, but the small ones are suitable for an average backpack and then in the large ones you can leave a big suitcase. Best regards, Nahara - Front desk.

If I book 2 spaces in a 4 bed dorm/room does that mean that we would still have to share it with 2 other people - given covid-19 regulations? I know that some hostels are doing 50% capacity in their dorms. Thanks

Hi, we operate with the 100% capacity of the dorms already, meaning you will be sharing the room with 2 other guests if you book 2 beds in a 4 bed room. Kind regards, Generator Copenhagen

What does “Excludes 25% VAT” mean?

Dear sir or madam, VAT is short for ´danish taxes´ , so if it is regarding some price or payment it means it is EXCLUDING (without) 25% VAT tax. Hope this answers your question, Best regards, Klara, Front desk

Good day, I would be arriving in the morning (flight from Amsterdam) and was wondering if i could leave my main luggage somewhere around 930am-10am prior officially checking in at 14h? Thank you, Guillaume

We have lockers right next to reception where you can store your luggage before check-in or after the check-out for a small fee. The fee will depend on the locker size and the time you need it for. For example large locker for 6hrs costs 50 Dkk. You can use danish coins or card for the payment.

Is it quiet at night?

Hi We are located in the center of the city, close to a street with bars, so it of course depends on what is going on around us. Our bar closes at midnight (2:00 on Fridays and Saturdays) but if you prefer, you can always request we place you in a room on the yard side and we do our best to comply.
