This is a brief summary of some of
the places we stayed during our 7
month trip in Europe in 2000.
Things might have changed since
then so take that into
consideration.
Copenhagen:
Chickens Pensione -
Torvegade 36, Copenhagen,
Denmark Ph:
45 32 95 32 73 Double bed,
shared bathroom.
Big, clean rooms with duvet
comforters, like sleeping at home!
Centrally located. Fridge but no
kitchen use.
Aarhus Vandrerhjem Pavillion -
Marienlundsvej 10, Risskov, Arhus,
Denmark
Ph:
45 8616 7298
1 set of bunks, private bathroom
Set in a forest/park, 3K from town.
Bus stops right by the hostel.
Standard HI rooms with private
bathrooms. Kitchen but oddly
enough, no dishes. Breakfast
available but not included.
Norway:
Berit Pensione -
Oslo, Norway, 47 22 56 03 83 1 set of
bunks, shared bathroom.
Rooms and beds rented out in a
private pensione (her apartment).
Use of kitchen. 3 metro stops from
the center. Hot water scarce in the
single shower. A good value for
expensive Oslo. Breakfast not
included.
Marken Gjesthus -
Kong Oscarsgt. 45 5017 Bergen,
Norway Ph:
47 55 31 44 04 Double bed, shared bathroom.
Basic doubles and dorms close to
the train station. Breakfast not

worth the price.
Sweden:
Af Chapman & Skeppsholmen -
Vastra Brobanken, 111 49,
Stockholm, Sweden Ph: 08 463 22 66
1 set of bunks, shared bathroom.
We stayed in Skeppsholmen (the
building across from the boat) as
the boat (Af Chapman) was full.
Standard HI rooms. Nice kitchen.
For the modest, not all showers
were curtained off - sort of a gym
feel. Book early, fills up months
in advance.
Linne Vandrarhem Hostel -
Vegagatan 22, Gotborg, Sweden Ph:
46 (0)31 12 10 60 2 single beds, shared bathroom.

extremely helpful staff. One of the
best hostels we stayed in. Lots of

a problem. Hostel offers a
fantastic walking tour - Brewers
