Accommodation

It's a good idea to book your accommodation well ahead of time, as summertime in Copenhagen is generally quite busy. Most neighbourhoods of Copenhagen are relatively close to the venue and can be easily accessed by bus, metro, taxi, walking, or biking (if you decide to get a rental). Below we've collected just a few of the many options at your disposal for accommodation during your stay here in August. Please note that while we list them here for your convenience, we do not have any arrangements with them, so you are responsible for researching them for yourself before booking.  

An excellent resource beyond what we've included here is the Visit Copenhagen website, which has abundant information on this topic. You can also use a search engine to look for hostels and hotels in the area, such as Skyscanner.

The Summer School venue will be at the South Campus of the University of Copenhagen, Faculty of Humanities. There is a metro station right next to campus called Islands Brygge, and Amagerbro Station is also within walking distance.
