There was a lot I liked about Generator Copenhagen. The atmosphere and vibe was very welcoming, the price of my stay was of good value compared to other properties nearby, the location was fantastic, and the Generator staff were very warm, welcoming, and fun. Special staff shout-out to Elisabetta, every morning she was the one greeting me at the breakfast bar next to the lobby. She made sure every morning that I was taken care of during breakfast and I appreciate when staff go above and behind for customers like that.

Nolan United States of America

We travelled with kids aged from 8 to 15. They were okay even with the outside noise or young party people coming back in the morning or at night. Surprisingly, a clean place for the hostel. It has a friendly and safe atmosphere. I recommend it for young party people.

Magdalena Ireland

The hotel is located in a very central location, easy to get from the airport and close to all main sights. The room is small but very convenient. We rented the bike for a day at the property, it was very convenient and easy to do. The room was new and clean, the staff was helpful.

Nataliya Israel

The common space was fun and encouraged mingling among hostel guests. The 4-person rooms had a "private" toilet and shower, which was a great perk.

Aaron United States of America

Danielle United States of America
