Location-wise, the hotel has it all since it’s very close and walkable from Copenhagen Central Train Station. It’s also nearby the Fisketorvet Copenhagen Mall and other shops and stops and spots such as the Tivoli Gardens. The hotel itself looks structurally elegant from the outside and inside. Hotel staff were friendly and helpful. Their rooms I think have minimalist concept wherein they have tried to squeezed the space although it wasn’t a concern for a solo traveler like myself. The interior design not just the room but the other areas such as the lobby and dining area were refreshing, smart, and relaxing. I just wished they could have added more or other options into their breakfast such as hot soup or hot noodle soup or anything like that. And also, you need to pay if you want hot water when water should be an accessible and free commodity for guests who already availed their service and booked a room. Moreover, I think their laundry offer was a bit expensive as it was per unit per different types of clothings. Maybe per kilo of collective clothing for laundry would be a friendlier option for guests and tourists so everybody happy. 😁😇 Overall WakeUp Copenhagen Hotel is still a must-booked hotel amongst your options if you happen to go to Copenhagen. Cheers!
Fantastic place to stay. Will definitely visit again. We were a little apprehensive about staying in a “hostel” to celebrate my husband’s 70th birthday but we had the best time! There were lots of guests who weren’t young. You just need to be able to get on your hands and knees for the bed! 🤭 There is ample room to sit up in bed. This place has hotel level facilities without the cost. There is a 7/11 store 2 blocks away. Under 10 minutes to walk to Enghave Plads Metro station where there is a beautiful square with lots of cafes to get breakfast. It was about 20 minutes to walk to Tivoli Gardens.
It is within walking distance from Copenhagen Central Station, although it will take 20-30 minutes. However, the hotel is near to the metro station. There are not so many restaurants and supermarkets near the hotel. The room is clean but tiny, but it is OK considering the price.
Objectively speaking, for this price point, the hotel's overall condition is quite good. While the buffet wasn't my favorite, I couldn't find anything better in the area. As for roommates, that's purely down to personal luck and other factors and shouldn't be used as a basis for evaluation.

The hotel is in a great location, and is very close to many shops and restaurants. Waterfront is just 15 minute walk.
My main issue is just how small the bed is in the standard room - they don't have twin room options so sharing with my mother I found the bed to very small. The room wasn't cleaned at any point during the stay. The breakfast was expensive in my opinion, better to go round the corner and go to one of the many coffee shops or cafes. In a city which is so expensive to book a hotel room I guess it sells itself as a budget friendly option, but I wasn't overly impressed.

Great location, easy to walk to Copenhagen central station, nearby bus stop and also travel to via airport. Breakfast on the 10 th floor had a nice view. Suggest black out blinds and kettle. Otherwise great stay while exploring the city
The hotel is in a good place if you’re coming from the airport, just 15 minute by metro. It’s another 15 minutes by metro into the city. The hotel is good for a budget traveler. The breakfast is very nice, lots of different options to choose from. My room was on the bottom floor and it was little noisy at night being right next to the car park. The shower could use a door because it does get wet when you shower.
Rooms are on the smaller side, and with many rooms per floor, sound insulation isn't ideal (earplugs advisable). The hotel doesn't provide toiletries or even umbrellas, so be sure to pack your own. The location, however, is flawless. It's just a stone's throw from the Central Station, making airport transfers incredibly convenient. There's a 7-Eleven and a bakery right by the entrance, and the main shopping street is only a five-minute walk away. For this price point in Copenhagen, you really can't complain!
I slept in women tent. The staff is super nice. And super useful guide to explore Copenhagen if you join the WhatsApp group. There’s port on bed for charging. A locker for you to put stuff. And the location is fantastic. Easy to get around the city by transportation nearby. They don’t have a kitchen but you can buy food to eat in the bar and there are many cafes, McDonald’s, street food and bar nearby. They have big washroom and seperate toilet and washroom that you dun have to worry about peeing yourself. And they have a bar.
The room space is not big. And there’s many dust under the charging port on bed. But overall I think it’s fine.
Good bargain quality price. Pretty close to train station so convenient to roam around and explore the city. No elevator which may be a nuisance to some, and they charge to keep your luggage before/ater check out
Very Good

AAnonymous UserThe hotel is very easy to find. After landing, just take the M3 blue line metro for 7 stops, and you'll find it diagonally opposite the station. Check-in was very straightforward, and the front desk staff spoke excellent English. The only downside was the breakfast; for 125 DKK, it felt like I didn't get much for my money.
GGuest UserThe location is not far from the Town Hall. It consists of two sections (different entrances) - a bar (the reception is also there), the next door leads to the hostel rooms, which occupy six floors. The elevator (of an old design) goes only to the fifth - so those who got a room on the sixth will have to walk one more floor up.The rooms are quite cramped, the top bed is suspended on pipes, which can give the impression that you are in a basement. On the entire floor - only two toilets, two sinks and three showers.The kitchen as such is not available to guests - there is a small dark room on the ground floor under the bar - which contains two small refrigerators, a microwave, a kettle. There is not even a sink with running water - this can be difficult if you need to wash your own dishes, fruits/vegetables, etc.
FFelix B.. SchiffbauerRoom was alright. Clean and Comfy. Shower was OK, don't like the curtains and bathroom was flooded after shower.
Over all it was okay.
Was a little bit warm and it had no AC and you couldn't open the window. That was a little bad.
GGuest UserThe location is excellent. One block from Tivoli Gardens and the train station and across the road from the bus stop to the airport.
Its a budget hotel, and as the name suggests, the rooms are like cabins on a ship, they're small. We took a bunk room which meant we had more floor space than a regular twin room.
The shower room is also compact, it's a wet room with a curtain inside, much like a ships cabin or a motor home. There was a squeegee provided for wiping the floor after a shower to reduce the risk of slipping.
Towels are provided in the room and if you want them replaced, just pick up new ones at the reception desk. Same goes for coffee, tea, sugar, creamer sachets, and cups. These are provided in the room as is a kettle, but you'll need to replenish if you're there more than one night.
The Downside was that there was no air-conditioning. It was warm when we stayed in July so we slept with the window wide open. We didn't notice insects and the noise from Tivoli and the church bells stops at 11pm so it wasn't especially noisy through the night. If you were travelling with younger children and preferred not to have the windows open wide, I think you could ask reception for a fan.
We borrowed a hairdryer from reception for the duration of our stay. There was no extra charge for this. Reception also sold hot and cold drinks and sandwiches. The staff were very helpful.
There was an outside seating area but it was very basic and mostly used by smokers. The lounge was a good size with both tables & chairs and sofas & coffee tables. It was a very short walk to the waterside area or the beautiful Glyptotek Gardens if you were looking for an outside seat and some peace.
We didn't take breakfast but you don't need to book before you stay. Just let reception know by 10pm the day before and you can have breakfast the following morning.
Room cleaning is not provided as standard but again, just arrange it with reception before 10pm the night before.
In summary, it's basic and it's small, a bit more like a hostel than a hotel. However, for the location, it's very competitively priced and I'd stay again.

TthewandercuratorA large, bustling one-stop inn for budget, indie, youthful groups and families. We booked a private double and got a 4-bed bunk room to ourselves that is tight on space i.e. narrow floor area made for backpacks not luggages, limited storage lockers or bins, tiny ensuite, etc. But beds were comfy with clean linen, individual reading lights, book pockets and charge sockets. Had choked hostel shower issue first night but it was quickly fixed by the next day. Lifts get crowded, so it's stairs down, most mornings. Facilities were crowded in the summer but endless, including a pub pizzeria, co-working social areas, cinema room and indoor arena but you need to pay for kitchen, basement luggage storage and laundry facilities (long queues for laundry). Excellent location: a supermarket nearby, airport bus stop out front for easy arrival and departure, plus Central Station just 7 mins walk away for trips further out. Considering its affordability in expensive Copenhagen, we would stay here again!
OORexplorerSteel House Hostel was great for my 4 day stay in Copenhagen. I stayed in a 6-person women's room, and got assigned an upper bunk. The room was quite nice (a bit cramped but nothing out of the ordinary), and I liked how high the bunk was- above head height when people were standing, so it didn't feel like others were in my space, and there was plenty of space to sit fully up in the bunk. Bed and pillow was comfy. Lockers were a good size (fit my carry on suitcase plus a backpack; others had bigger suitcases that didn't fit), but the locking mechanism was a bit challenging- basic idea but seemed to be mechanical issues).
There was a thermostat that could be set as low as 17C (~63F), which was the setting in my room, but this didn't work well- it was definitely in the low 70s (F) in the room and felt quite warm for sleeping. The fans in the bathroom and shower (separate, which was good for a shared room) didn't seem to work (no knob apparent for the shower; there was a knob in the bathroom but it didn't do anything), so the room got humid after one or two people showered.
The hostel is huge, and almost more like a hotel. WiFi was spotty or absent in the room, but plenty of common areas to sit or work downstairs. Kitchen was frequently used, and I took advantage of the kitchen fridge for having skyr and fruit for breakfasts (costs 25DKK for your whole stay).
I also rented a bike for a couple days. It seemed overpriced (~135 DKK for 24hr) but can't beat the convenience, and the bike (standard city cruiser) worked just fine.

RRahulSinghI stayed at Annex Copenhagen Hostel recently and overall had a decent experience. The location is one of its strong points—very close to the central station, which made getting around the city quite convenient.
The cleanliness was satisfactory. The toilets were kept clean, and my room was cleaned once during my stay, which was fine for a short trip. A fan was provided in the room, which was useful for ventilation and comfort.
They also offer a cycle rental service at 150 DKK per day, which is a great way to explore Copenhagen like a local.
While it's not a luxury stay, the basics were well-covered, and it's a good option for travellers looking for a budget-friendly place in a central location.
