Helsinkigade, 30 m2, 1 rooms, 11,700 kr.

Compact 30 m² single-room apartment on Helsinkigade in Nordhavn, offered at DKK 11,700 per month. The unit is arranged as a contemporary studio and residents share a range of communal facilities: a fitness room, dedicated study spaces, coworking areas, lounges for socializing, regular community events and a sauna. Certain flats come with their own kitchen and are sometimes let to early-career workers, but most leases prioritize applicants who are enrolled as students. The contract carries a fixed commitment for the first three months; after that the tenancy can be ended with three months’ notice.

The building sits right by the harbourfront, providing direct access to waterside recreation — including harbour swimming — plus promenades, cafés lining the quay and planted public seating areas. The immediate environment is a recently developed urban district designed for both outdoor activity and relaxed social life, with on-site spaces that support studying, remote work and group interaction.

Several educational institutions fall within about five kilometres, making the location convenient for students across different fields. Nearby schools and campuses include Copenhagen’s Fashion and Design School, the Defence Academy, the Royal Academy’s School of Conservation, NEXT (Vibenshus Gymnasium), the training ship Georg Stage, the University of Copenhagen’s Nørre Campus and its Graduate School of Health and Medical Sciences, the School for Clinical Assistants and Dental Hygienists, and University College Copenhagen (including continuing education at Sigurdsgade).

Transport links are strong: Nordhavn Station provides regional and local rail connections and the Orientkaj metro stop is within easy reach. Cyclists benefit from well-planned routes into the city centre and beyond, and local buses supplement the rail and metro services, offering straightforward access to universities and institutions across Copenhagen.

Everyday conveniences—grocers, small shops and services—are a short walk away, making this a practical base that combines urban amenities with ready access to outdoor waterfront life for study and daily routines in Nordhavn.
