Hostel Belægningen

Hostel Belaegningen is a great budget option for travellers to Copenhagen. Set in an old army camp, amongst an eclectic mix of other weird and wacky things (film studio of Lars Von Triers, a clown museum, a restaurant cum chef school), it lends itself to people who like to be a bit more independent and who like to see more than just the usual tourist highlights. The rooms are set up in classic hostel style, with several bunks, but you can also hire private rooms for groups. They’re clean and quiet, we felt relaxed staying there, and all the facilities were well kept and not crowded. There’s a couple of supermarkets nearby, should you want to self cater, and it’s near a bus route and a metro station so you can get into the city in around 30 minutes. The staff were really friendly, full of useful information about the area, so we felt well looked after. Also, there’s a frickin’ tank outside in the film studio grounds! A TANK! Well worth a stay: D

Je me souviens d’une auberge fonctionnelle, un peu vieillotte et étriquée, jonchée de marches et de niveaux absurdes, mais quand on est jeune…
