Very nice and clean room. The only negative thing was the thin door which didn´t feel very secure and did not block away any noise. The location was great, although the neighbourhood was a bit "rough", especially at night time.

OK place to stay over one night. Clean room, clean shower, stinky toilets. Many prostitute in the streets near the hotel at night. Not so funny. Close to the centralstation.

Good hotel and good location. Just right by main train station. They couldn't find my booking though, but they sorted it out quickly and we got a great room.

Although there were sex shops and prostitutes bargaining nearby, we felt safe and the location near the RR station is convenient. It's within a good walk of the Carlsberg Brewery ... interesting. They serve an excellent full Danish breakfast early enough to make connections with the train or...

Small-ish room but; clean toilets and showers (which is good, because they were shared). Much better service than the Nebo hotel around the corner, which I have also stayed in.

The staff did not ask if we want a non-smoking room. So we were assigned smoking room that we did not like. But overall it is pretty good

We booked a room in the Absalon Annex but got a free upgrade within the Absalon Hotel. The location is perfect. Very close to the central train station and the Tivoli. Just the price is quite high compared to other countries but in general it's difficult to find a cheap and decent enough hostel...

Great value for money, we really enjoyed our stay here as it was a hotel rather than hostel. There was a lovely breakfast as well & staff were friendly. Great location, however it was in a rough area, so I wouldnt want to be walking home alone!

I'm not sure that Absalon even has a hostel part, given the amount of reviews here suggesting they were upgraded to the hotel - as we were. It was great, particularly the free and very extensive buffet breakfast which fed us for the morning and lunch on both days. The touting ladies outside add a bit of colour, but given the location (right next to the station) you can't complain.close

The breakfast was excellent with a good choice of foods. A small minus was that the towels had a vague strange smell(chlorine?). A good environmental policy with asking the guests to consider reusing the towels instead of changing them every day. We will certainly recommend your hotel(and hostel) to our peers.close

worst hostel on our trip...great location to the train station but sketchy area...the hotel looked nice but the hostel was terrible...smelled bad, not that clean, and the staff over-charged us even though we tried to fix it...took us 2 weeks to straighten it out...wouldn't stay here again
