History
The building was originally called Hotel Europa. It was the first high-rise tower in Copenhagen and was originally intended to be coupled with a never-built tower on the other side of the bridge. It was the tallest building of Denmark from 1955 to 1958, when it was surpassed by the Falkoner Center. The building was later renovated and in 2004 was re-opened as a hostel.

Its interior furniture was designed by the Danish firm Gubi recalling with its colors Denmark's traditional housing style.

The hostel has 1020 beds in dormitories or smaller rooms. Its basement hosts kitchen facilities while in the ground floor is located an Internet café.
