Practical info
Startup Housing is for everyone who attends an education in Copenhagen:
Apprentice, pupil or student.
Accommodation pitches can be rented on a weekly basis at reasonable prices. So if you are in pressure for housing at the start of your studies, you can rent one of the 40 overnight places in Vesterbro while you look for housing. Here you will live with students and students from many different educations and countries in a really cozy house.

600 DKK a week for a bed in a shared room.
The refundable deposit is 300 DKK.
When you move in, check-in is on Saturdays between 14-16 – except for the first week of September*. Here you receive welcome information, your key etc.
If you can’t make it for the check-in day, write us at housing@studenterhuset.com at least 3 days in advance, and we’ll make arrangements to get your key to you.
Check out is Saturday between 11-12. At this time, we’ll check that your locker is empty and you’ll return your key. Then we’ll refund your deposit. If you need to check out earlier, let us know, and we’ll find a good place for you to leave your key.
*If you’re booking a bed for the first week of September, the check-in won’t be until Sunday September 1! It’ll still be from 14-16. This is because we won’t have access to the building before this. The booking system will tell you to book from August 31 but we’ll return the money for the first night together with your deposit.
Startup Housing will be open September 1 – November 23 2024.
You can stay for the whole period or just a week or two depending on your needs.
Bed linens, towels, and your clothes. We provide a bunk bed and a small locker.
You can bring approximately what you can fit in a suitcase.

Yes.
Write us an email or find us in the house Saturdays between 11-16.
Let us know no later than Tuesday of the week you want to move out (or you’ll have to pay for the following week as well).
The booking system will require you to pay the deposit every time you book – but we’ll start the return transfer of any extra deposits immediately.
Unfortunately, it may take several weeks for the money to return to your account.
We’ll be able to extend your booking manually if you contact us before you book!

About Startup Housing
It can be difficult to find student housing in Copenhagen during the typically 4-5 weeks that pass from the time you are admitted to an education until the education starts. And it is especially difficult if you do not know Copenhagen or Denmark.
Therefore, as part of the municipality’s student city policy, the City of Copenhagen has decided to make a temporary “roof over your head” offer at the start of the semester. Read more about the project here:
https://studieby.kk.dk/bolig-su/startup-housing
Studenterhuset and byStudents are responsible for the rental and operation of Startup Housing. We are a student-led association that works for better conditions for Danish and international students in Copenhagen.
We hope that you will also visit our student and cultural centre in Købmagergade 52, where we arrange activities, debates and concerts for students. See activity calendar HERE
