Copenhagen vs Hamburg?

aka_Ciaran

Hi - I have a 4 day trip to Copenhagen this week. Flying via Hamburg and getting the train to Cope, so will be staying in Hamburg at least 1 night. Anyone got an opinion of nightlife / bars / social activities in Copenhagen versus Hamburg? Which one would be better for nightlife / craic? Was planning 3 nights in Cope and 1 in Hamburg, would I be better spending a bit more time in Hamburg? Also any recommendations for cheap beer spots in Cope welcome.

TIA.

Hamburg is pretty wild, a fair bit more lively than Copenhagen.

Hamburg ftw, lot more fun and cheaper as well. Reeperbahn is where the fun is at, check out the bars around Hans Albers Platz and along Hamburger Berg.

Have been in both for 3 to 4 nights in the past year.

Hamburg is mental and you can get pretty good value for money. Copenhagen is a lot more reserved and quite expensive.

Both a certainly worth the visit though.
