I have been travelling since the last 7 years (have travelling to over 150 cities) and I would rate this hostel as the second best on my list. What a concept! Tents in a building combined with a bar. I initially planned to stay in Copenhagen for 2 nights but the vibe of this hostel made me come back again on the weekend and I stayed here for 4 nights in all. I spent less time travelling in the city and more in the bar here as it was so much fun. They have a few game tables set up, alcohol options are great and the vibe is 10/10. The rooms are kept clean, the beds are cosy, showers are toooo good and the staff is the best. I would like to give it a -1 for the location but the other things are 11/10 and hence the overall experience is 10/10. When in Copenhagen, stay no where else but at Urban Camper.

I really loved the atmosphere, the owners of the hostel were very kind and always willing to help you and find solution. They gave me a packed breakfest the evening before I left because I had to leave too early, that was really awesome. Also the other guests were very kind and there were a couple of great conversations with people from all around the world.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

Great location and easily accessible. Double pods were comfy and modern with lights, extraction fan and PowerPoints. Pin pad access was hit and miss but got there in the end. Great value for money in a city with limited hostels on offer when you’re on a budget.

Kind staff well oriented to help and fix problems. The outlet in my bed didn't work and they inmediately changed me to another room before the check in. It was a better accomodation without extra charge. Good service. Really comfortable bed, good wifi conection, clean room, capsules with code which give you privacy and so safe to keep your belogings inside. Better location imposible, just in the Nyhavn. And all this for a cheap price. It exceeded my expectations, I would be glad to come back to this hostel

Great combo of hotel & hostel. My solo room was bright, clean, and comfortable, though small. Lots of social space--games, pub, outdoor seating, events, buffet breakfast with good variety. Can mingle or be alone comfortably. Staff very friendly, helpful, and efficient. Great location--just two blocks from Kongens Nytorv & very close to many historic sites! Felt very safe. I'll stay here again!

Rooms were really clean, small but good organized. I really liked how they put four people who had the same check in and check out date. Other than that the kitchen is very cheap to use, with a lot of options. I can easily say it was the best hostel I have ever stayed.

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.
