Cabinn Copenhagen

Safe and convenient place to stay at the city. Very close to metro station.

Clean room, located in central Kopenhagen, all the employees were perfectly nice and for the very low price compared to other hotels in the area you even get to use a gym in the hotel.

To be honest, staying in Copenhagen is expensive. This was the cheapest place nearest to the city centre. But it's overrun with tourists / backpackers / students, etc. The rooms are small, but have everything you need. You don't have housekeeping, if you want a clean towel you need to take your old one to reception for exchange. Reception - this is a challenge. So when we arrived we were too early for check in, by about half hour. So we were told we were too early and needed to wait until the magic hour of 3pm. It was 2.30pm so we though we'd hang around reception. We noticed an electronic number board above each staff station on the reception desk, which suddenly at 2.55pm started changing by incremental numbers. Why is this? Then we realised we should have been told to "take a number" from the machine so we could have our turn at reception. So that meant we'd wasted some time. Took our number and waited our turn. Check in was sort of straight forward, although the receptionist tried to charge us when we'd already paid at the time of booking. But she was still learning the role so we didn't make a fuss. You have to take a ticket if you want to buy something from the reception area, you can't do two separate things on one ticket! So once we'd booked in we had to wait until our other number came up so we could buy a drink. Rooms - small but has everything you need. The tap in the bathroom leaked every time it was turned on, so I went back to reception (took a ticket) and asked if it could be mended. However, maintenance do not work weekends, so the earliest it could be mended was Monday (we were leaving Monday so that was that). It's quite a walk in to the city centre, the Cabinn is based in the business district so don't expect a leisurely stroll, it's more like a 15 minute fast walk to anywhere.

It was really conveniently located, close to so many tourist attractions, shopping centers and restaurants while also being really close to the bus station. It wasn’t anything incredible or mind blowing but there was a self check-in option, the atmosphere of the reception and lounge were cozy and classy, the rooms were snug and practical, and the beds and sheets were actually quite comfortable. I also really enjoyed how secure and safe everything felt. You couldn’t use the elevator or stairs without a keycard, which was just reassuring. All around, it was great!

Well located to public transport (metro and central station >15 walk), as well as access to the city (you can be in the main centre in 20 mins.) Rooms were compact but perfect for a short city stay. Check in was easy and staff were extremely helpful. Hairdryer available for free from front desk as well as parking (at a cost about £25 for 24 hrs) and huge lockers (about £4 for 6 hours but could easily fit 3 large rucksacks in each).
