The hotel is conveniently located near both the airport and the Metro station. It’s situated in a quiet neighborhood, yet there are grocery stores and a few dining options within walking distance. I arrived early, and although my room wasn’t ready for check-in, the hotel offered locker storage for an additional fee, which was helpful. The room itself was cozy and perfectly fine for a solo traveler, though it might feel a bit tight for two people. One thing to note—there was no air conditioning in the room. I’m not sure if that’s typical in Denmark, but it did get quite warm during the day. Many guests opened their windows for ventilation, but since I was on the ground floor, I didn’t feel comfortable leaving mine open. Despite that, I had a pleasant stay overall and would definitely consider staying here again on my next visit.

There was no elevator, so it was a struggle to get my large luggage up to the room. I couldn't find a hairdryer in the room, but you can borrow one from the front desk. Since the toilets and showers are shared, it might be more convenient to be in a room closer to them. Overall, I think it's a comfortable hotel to stay in, as it's close to tourist attractions, convenience stores, and restaurants.

The hotel is really lovely and charming, and the location is perfect (very close to Copenhagen's main square). The reception staff were very kind and helpful. The best part is that every day at 5 pm in the hotel lobby, they offer a complimentary glass of wine (red or white).

For the room I stayed in is really small. Even I am short, I could not sit straight on my bed ( can refer to the picture I uploaded). The toilet and the bathroom is really cold, especially for right side of the bathroom as there is no heater inside. And the cleaning staff, their service attitude a bit worse. During the morning hour, they will clean the toilet and bathroom, also for the checked-out bed. From my experience, they stared at me and made me feel uncomfortable and ”under pressure”, seems I should not stay at the area (where they are cleaning). Also, I found that they changed the pillow cover and bed sheet on floor(disgusting). However, the reception is nice. As it is a hostel, it is reasonable for them to charging fee from the shampoo, shower gel, or service (like storing luggage service). However, I have never heard and experienced that  accommodation does not provide hairdryer for free(cost $50 dkk). It is alarming to everyone who would like to  book this hostel when coming to Copenhagen, you need to bring  shampoo, shower gel, teeth blush, etc. If it is possible bring your own hairdryer as well, it is costly for you to bring one for just a few days.  I would totally not recommend people to stay in this hostel cause there is better options with the similar price (like airbnb or other hostel chain).

I stayed at Wakeup Copenhagen and found it to be a solid choice for a short city trip. The hotel is modern, clean, and well-organized, with a minimalist design that makes everything feel efficient and straightforward. The location is very convenient, especially for exploring central Copenhagen, with easy access to public transport and key attractions. The room was compact, which is expected for this type of hotel, but it was well-designed and functional. The bed was comfortable, and everything was clean and in good condition. However, if you’re traveling with large luggage or prefer more space, the room might feel a bit tight. Staff were friendly and helpful, and check-in/check-out was quick and smooth. The overall atmosphere is more practical than luxurious, but it delivers good value for money. Overall, Wakeup Copenhagen is a great option if you’re looking for an affordable, clean, and well-located hotel without unnecessary extras.

Copenhagen Downtown Hostel – Capsule Stay Review This was my first time staying in a capsule hotel in Copenhagen (£80 per night), after hearing positive feedback from friends who had travelled here. I decided to try the quiet zone option with a comfortable capsule located near the hostel facilities. Pros: • Excellent location in the heart of the city, with restaurants, bars, and cafés within walking distance. • Easy access to all main attractions. • The capsule area was clean and the bed was comfortable. However, I left with mixed feelings. While the location and cleanliness met expectations, the hostel’s operation style felt more “self-service” and less attentive to guest concerns. On the first night, my sleep was disrupted by a guest in the quiet zone who was both noisy and snored loudly throughout the night. It affected everyone in the vicinity, and despite some guests (myself included) gently knocking to try and reduce the disturbance, it continued until morning. On the second night, the same issue occurred, but it was made worse by a sudden emergency alarm at around 4:45 AM, requiring all guests to evacuate and wait outside for inspection before returning to bed. Understandably, safety comes first, but the timing and the combination of disturbances made it impossible to rest. When I tried to contact staff in the middle of the night, there was no one available, so I had to raise the issue through Trip.com. Although staff later offered some coins as a goodwill gesture, it did not feel proportionate to the £80 per night rate... especially when nearby private rooms can be found for much less. Sadly, what I hoped would be a unique and comfortable stay turned into a frustrating experience. I will not be returning, and I would advise light sleepers to consider alternatives.

Located 5 minutes walk to the metro and train. Just 2 train stops to the airport. Big mall very close to the hotel. All this makes the location very convenient. I didn’t use any facility of the hotel as I only stayed one night. Only bad point is that I saw a silverfish in the room when I arrived. It’s a sign of over humidity I guess.

Wakeup Copenhagen - Carsten Niebuhrs Gade: After a nightmare stay at City Hotel Nebo (Istedgade 6, 1650 København V, Denmark) where I couldn't sleep and my skin was itching due to dirty conditions including hair in the sink and no hygiene products available, Wakeup Copenhagen was my salvation. Immaculate cleanliness, modern minimalist room on 8th floor with marvelous city view, comfortable bed where I finally slept after 48 hours of exhaustion, clean shower with good water pressure, good quality breakfast, very good reception lobby, perfect location near Dybbølsbro Station (500m) and easy access to Copenhagen Bus Terminal for my FlixBus, excellent value at €62-70. Rating: 9/10. Compared to City Hotel Nebo (-3/10), this was heaven. The contrast was shocking - from dirty and uncomfortable to clean, modern, and peaceful. This hotel saved my trip and gave me the rest I needed to enjoy my last day in Copenhagen. Absolutely recommended for solo travelers who value cleanliness! Thank you Trip.com and Wakeup Copenhagen! 🙏

The building entrance and the reception areas are impressive. The receptionist is very welcoming. But the room itself feels like a cheap motel. Neet, but cheap. Not worth the price. Beds sound like a camp bed, but it feels ok. The shower is just in the same area as a toilet, and for the shower you stand right on the floor, the same floor as a toilet. Coffee/tea amenities: two cheap cups, and normal two coffee,sugar,creamer. Interestingly that coffee has a label of the hotel, but not cups. Lights are not enough in the room, it feels dark. And there is no central turning on/off switch for light in the room. You need to turn on/off each and every light manually. No hair dryer. There is no separate shampoo. It's just all in one soap+shampoo liquid. Leaving your luggage/bags after checkout is not for free. They have lockers, which you need to pay for. The breakfast buffet is nothing fancy, and not a lot of options. The location is good. Not far away from the center. And there were no city views from my room, but it said so when booking. And there is a small gym inside.
