Danhostel Aarhus Risskov

Hostels generally provide no frills and lots of functional attractions. Danhostel in Risskov is no exception. Our beds were comfortable in a small room with clean bathroom and a small table with chairs outside which we didn't use due to the rain. There's a kitchen with space to store food and equipment to prepare meals. We didn't purchase breakfast which is served in a large hall. The receptionist was helpful. We would've like to stroll down to the sea through the forest, but the weather was crap! The city centre is 3-4 km drive or by bus.

It is quite standard for a hostel, except it costs many times more than an average hostel, therefore I can’t recommend it. Paying extra for sheets is uncommon and adds even more to the already very high price. The location is beautiful in the forest, but a 40 min walk from the center. There are busses that take you to the outskirts of the forest and it is a short walk from there. Everything else was fine. A lot of noise during the daylight hours from children playing.

Our family stayed here in early March and couldn't have had a more magical experience! We loved the location, set back in the woods and an easy walk from multiple public transportation options, and were so pleased with the room as well. To top it off, the staff was so helpful and kind, going above and beyond to help us have a wonderful stay in town. While we wouldn't necessarily have a reason to visit Aarhus again in the future, we would seriously consider staying here again to relax and enjoy the stay at Danhostel Aarhus!

Stayed for 1 night, in a 4 bedroom, 10 minutes drive from city center, rooms pretty nice, nothing special, friendly staff, expensive like everything else in Denmark.|Nice local area around, free parking for car. bathrooms outdated, small rooms

I arrived here with a group of about 50 people in the night. It wasn't easy to find the hostel neither the rooms, the room utilities were not as expected from a Dan hostel. There is no clear directions to get to the city other than going out to wait at the bus stop. The breakfast was average, but of good Danish quality.

For the price I didn't expect much. However, it turned out it's an amazing place. Not only it's pretty close to the sea and the around area is beautiful, the walking distance from the city is around 45 minutes, which is suitable for a nice walk when it's not cold. Also the shared facilities like kitchen or common room are very well equipped, everything is tidy and the room itself is more than enough if you only need to sleep over for a few nights.

Rooms are clean, the hostel itself is nice. However! Be prepared to pay extra for the bed linen. They also don’t provide the towels, which was a surprise for us and we had to go and search for them in the shops, in the middle of the night! They should’ve informed us of that before, so we could at least prepare.

I was only two nights at this Hostel, it is located 30 maybe 40 minutes walk from the center ( the street is a little inclined ) Or with the bus number 17,18 and 20 at the main street 5 min from the hostel , it is in a huge park perfect for those who enjoy hiking and nature. The lady at reception was nice and helpful , however there is not always someone at the reception, so make sure you know the opening time or ask everything you need to know when you checking in! The breakfast is good, a little more than basic, in my opinion. I have to say, its good for a Hostel!

Amazing location in the woods. Just like a motel. Your car parked in front of your room. Beautiful breakfast room! Woke up to bird chipping. Great for kids with a playground. Did have a toilet and bath at the room, so don't know about shared bathroom. Great price!
