Cosy yet small, At First Blush is a typical Copenhagen home. We love its feminine vibes and elegant touches – the abundance of posters, artworks and trinkets are particular favourites. Vesterbro is a hipster mecca and great for the younger, artsy crowd. There are plenty of coffee shops, independent eateries and design boutiques nearby, especially since Kødbyen is just down the road. It is worth noting that parts of Istedgade are still a little rough around the edges, which becomes more and more visible the closer you get to Copenhagen Central Station.

Home truths

    Caroline would love it if you could help out by watering her plants

    The bedroom is on the small side

    In true Copenhagen fashion, the bathroom is very small

    The shower is more of a wet room than a cabin – the entire bathroom floor will get wet when you shower

    It’s a lived-in home, expect to share the space with some of the host’s belongings

    Vesterbro is a former working-class district turned hipster paradise – but this part of the neighbourhood that’s closer to Copenhagen Central station is still a little rough around the edges

About Kødbyen

Kødbyen literally translates to Meat City, and so it shouldn’t come as a shock that this neighbourhood used to be the epicentre of Copenhagen’s meat industry. Some butchers are still around, but Kødbyen has largely transitioned into a creative cluster filled with co-working spaces, vibrant nightlife, and renown restaurants. When you first walk into the characteristic micro-neighbourhood that’s on the border of Copenhagen’s city centre and Vesterbro, you’re met by...
