AIRBNB IN COPENHAGEN

Airbnb is a fantastic choice for the best accommodation in Copenhagen and a great alternative to staying in hotels. Many Danes rent out their homes and apartments (quite legally and taxed) while on vacation, so many are available in especially summer and over the winter holidays. Try to secure one of these family homes, rather than commercial properties, for great deals and to get a look into true hygge and the typical Danish lifestyle. Airbnb also offers a range of interesting experiences when visiting Copenhagen.
