Where can a school class or group stay overnight in Copenhagen?
Hostels for classes and groups
Short answer
Hostels with group and school camp offers are a common option for classes visiting Copenhagen. Danhostel runs two hostels in the area: Danhostel Copenhagen City on H.C. Andersens Boulevard in the centre, and Danhostel Ishøj Strand, 20 km from the City Hall Square. Its school camp package covers the stay and three meals a day, and you ask for a quote directly from the hostel. Groups get a group price, and you can ask about free dates at [email protected].
Why
- Two Danhostels lie in the Copenhagen area.
- School camp stays include three meals a day.
- Groups book through a quote from the hostel.
Details
Danhostel has 64 places to stay across Denmark, and the hostels with school camp stays can be found on a map or in a list.
Tip
A group travelling abroad with a hostel booking needs a free group card from Danhostel.
What may differ
Prices, room sizes and linen are set by each hostel, so ask for them in the quote.
Common misconception
Many think school classes can only stay at hostels in the city centre.
What actually happens
Ishøj Strand, 20 km from the City Hall Square, is also an option for groups visiting Copenhagen.
