Stockholm Hostels

Pros: Great locaton

Cons: Bed was very very uncomfortable, woke up with back pain everyday.

Pros: I really liked the location and the common areas for chilling. They also help with social interaction among the customers, since they provide activities on a daily basis. One of the washrooms had a heated floor. The decoration is awesome!

Cons: My flight arrived early morning and I was told (after I wrote them) that automatically I would receive instructions by e-mail on how to get in, since they don't work past midnight. It turned that I never got any email and if it wasn't for a girl I saw through the window to let me in, I would've been screwed. One washroom had no other material on the floor than cement and it was always wet, so kinda gross since it's a non-shoes place. I believe the code system is good, but changing the door code daily could be annoying if you are staying long.

Pros: Everything was super, I really enjoyed being here. Great hostel and traditional restaurant Nomad right next door for which we got discounts :-)

Cons: Nothing.

Pros: There are a lot activities to do during the day and nights which is great for solo travellers. Great size kitchen and plenty of showers and bathrooms. The sauna was a great bonus.

Pros: There was a free sauna and free never ending pasta shells to cook with! A full kitchen and individual mini fridges for each room. There are many lounging areas and Mac computers free to use as well as free WiFi! The rooms are very spacious and all the employees are super sweet. Also the location was amazing!

Cons: Nothing to complain about

Pros: Very clean and spacious. Good location near the station. A lot of organised activities for those that are interested in a more social experience. Good hostel, just not quite excellent.

Cons: 1. Why clean the kitchen during breakfast time? 2. The kitchen could use some additions such as scissors, bottle openers, tea pots etcetera. 3. There is a sauna but no-one informed us about its whereabouts or usage. 4. A pity that eating and drjnking your own food is not allowed in the courtyard, since this is the only outdoor space that is available. And it is very hot downstairs. 5. Personal was not always well informed about less standard activities in Stockholm such as ferry services in the Archipelago.

Pros: Central location. Fair price for a dorm bed.

Pros: Good location

Cons: Too many codes to enter

Pros: overall nice hostel.

Cons: the staff is not the most competent you can find, but at least they try to help you and correct their mistakes.

Pros: Guests and staff were welcoming, friendly, and neat. I loved the provided pasta and extensive common space.

Pros: Large showers and bathroom facilities. Big rooms with adequate space to arrange belongings. Sauna available, interesting interior layout, computers and good food storage systems. Secure lockers, and activities arranged.

Cons: Showers and barthrooms are located non-adjacent to rooms so you sometimes have to walk quite a long way to find one. The kitchen was not 'fully equiped' as it did not have an oven - which made making pizza very difficult...We were looking for a more lively atmosphere and wanted to party in Stockholme. We didnt get this vibe from this hostel, albeit it arranges a pub crawl and boat crawl through a third party.

Pros: The free sauna and free pasta were a nice touch and it was very clean.

Pros: Very cozy and homey hostel with good vibes.

Pros: This is a very cozy hostel and I especially liked the Victorian/steampunk-inspired style in forniture and decoration. The staff was kind and helpful, great location, extra points for Vietnamese coffee in the breakfast buffet!

Cons: The single room is tiny and I would not recommend having a suitcase in there (but it worked fine with a backpack)...

Pros: The location of the hostel is great - about 20 minutes on foot to the city center or 2-3 minutes away from the metro station that can take you anywhere. There are a couple of supermarkets within the walking distance and also a small park nearby, where you can have dinner or play football. The kitchen is big, equipped and has free pasta and fridge with free food leftover by guests of the hostel.

Cons: The hostel is located basically underground. And I am sorry, but although technically the twin room did have a window, in fact, it was half a window up near the ceiling, which mean there is very little light coming in the room. This window also faces the street and is located right above the ground from the street. So there may be people parking their bike at your window. And it also means that you will most definitely wake up several times during the night because of the people talking loudly outside or because of the sound of traffic light (it makes this ticking sound). So we did not have a good night's sleep during 3 nights that we were there, even though we were tired from the active days walking around Stockholm. The kitchen and other facilities are also not very welcoming because of the hostel being underground and no natural light. We tried to have our dinners in the nearby park and not in the hostel kitchen. The other thing is also the cleanliness - when we arrived our room still had the full trash can (it was more than an hour past their check-in time), and the room clearly was not vacuumed. The staff was helpful and they cleaned the floor and the trash can, but the pillows on the bed still had weird stains on them. The showers were not very clean either, and women showers had only 'rainfall' showerheads which were inconvenient if you did not want to get your hair wet.

Pros: To compare with another hostel It's close to Viking cruise terminal

Pros: Nice decor and good location

Cons: The hostel is in a basement, which would be fine if there was a decent ventilation system. The rooms were sweltering and there was no a/c or fans available. The rooms were stuffy and uncomfortable for this reason. There are also no night staff on duty.

Pros: The breakfast you can purchase was a great way to fill up for a full day around Stockholm. The rooms are cozy and comfortable. I had a great stay, both times I've been. Would recommend.

Pros: Our room was clean and it was easy to check-in at night.

Pros: Staff is friendly. Room is ok, cleanliness as well. Location is in a nice neighbourhood next to good transport options.

Cons: Everything is fine. No complaints.

Pros: Available bathrooms, clean and nice

Pros: The night check-in is working smoothly. The kitchen is well equiped.

Cons: Parking is a little bit tricky, and the water pressure is too strong.

Pros: Great location, quiet and comfortable accommodation with a nice chilled out vibe. Short metro ride or a nice walk into the main town. Also a great hip local area to explore, near to the shore with some great views over the city.

Pros: Excellent location, inside a park with a great playground and beach and near to the city center. Great communal kitchen.

Cons: Family rooms a bit small, extra charge for the linen.

Pros: Delicious Breakfast, pretty good cleanliness, friendly and reassuring staff, very beautiful location next to a big park

Pros: Beautiful location.

Cons: Just two outlets in the middle of the 4 persons room.

Pros: Clean, good kitchen facilities and a nice restaurant.

Cons: Hadn't been told that bedding wasn't included in the price of the room

Pros: A very peaceful location right off the state park and many outdoor activities for kids. In the city without all the noise. The hotel is divided to a hostel and hotel. An upgrade from the hostel to hotel is cheap and in return you get a spacious room with a bathroom, absolutely worth it. Hotel has a great restaurant with great breakfast and dinners.

Cons: Although it is regarded to be in the city it is a 40 minute walk to city center and like all big cities is not car friendly and expensive parking.

Pros: The location was great. Green and near the beach. Walking distance to the OLD TOWN. Definitely recommend for the families with babies.

Pros: Lockers on the room were big and you got your own key for it. Breakfast. Location. Clean. Friendly staff. This was more like a hotel than a hostel.

Cons: Quite pricey in the end, because I stayed at 4-person female dorm. Breakfast was good but you had to buy it separately. Private parking was quite expensive for one motorcycle. Sauna was about 15 euros.

Pros: Kitchen was great and we could have most of our meals here or sitting outside

Cons: Bunk beds in Family room were hard and unsuitable for our adult daughter.

Pros: After interrailing 3 weeks around Europe and accommodating in top central locations in London, Paris, München and other places, we first felt when walking from Södra train station to Zinkensdamm that now we have chosen a location that is in the middle of nowhere. But we were wrong: such delightful neighborhood with big lively park for hanging out, playing minigolf, dipping in the sea, watching acrobats and beach volley players training! There are also restaurants nearby, if you don't want to eat at the site. (Ho(s)tel's restaurant doesn't have many vegetarian choices.) I totally recommend Zinkensdamm especially for families with children. Unfortunately, the hostel/hotel doesn't have and picnic blankets to rent, so you have to bring your own. The hostel/hotel itself was convenient. We (me, my husband, my two teenage daughters) stayed on the hostel site for two nights. The smallish family room had a toilet and a shower and the air conditioning. We used also the customer kitchen and laundry. (The building is a mace, feels like an adventure, when searching places.) We liked our stay and would go there another time, too. Didn't miss Södermalm's hipster side at all.

Pros: Great position in Gamla Stan.

Cons: No curfew for noise or lights in communal bedrooms

Pros: A self-service hostel for adults and families, because the room prices keep the party-travellers elsewhere. High rooms, high windows. Easy to use if you know your way through Gamla Stan.

Cons: As noisy as every other hostel until 10 pm, thin walls, lot of door banging, some noise also from the street below. It would be tolerable, but 130 euros (3 persons + sheets) is at least 30 e too much for this level of lodging. Sorry, we won't come again.

Cons: No window room in ground floor is very very small and there is no air condition. The air was so bad in that room.

Pros: - Located in the old town (however not crowded or noisy) - The brick wall in the room made an interesting atmosphere (although a little dusty) - Passcodes for your room which means you don't have to carry keys with you

Cons: - Staff was hardly there - The stairs down to the room

Pros: Great location almost in the heart of Gamla Stan, very nice and friendly staff. Everything was clean, kitchen with free tea and coffee. We arrived two hours before check in and were allowed to leave our bags in luggage storage, take shower, even got hairdryer and drank some tea. Room was just as described and shown in photos, clean. Curfew for an extra charge, but that was mentioned on booking. Everything was excellent!

Pros: Breakfast was not so bad. Hostel is within walking distance of Galma Stan, Royal Palace, Nobel Prize museums and etc

Cons: The room space is quite small for our luggages to be open flat. Separately for the shared bathrooms, the mirror and hooks in some bathrooms are yet to be replACed.

Pros: Free coffee, nice lounge

Pros: Great location, simple and effective. Good price for the location.

Cons: The basement subdivided rooms were effective enough and fairly clever. They are open at the top though, so noise carries over. You are kind of at the mercy of other travellers - the day we were leaving there was a family with a baby coming. That should not be allowed for those rooms. They were also a bit cramped for a couple. One night was totally fine but more would have gotten a bit annoying. But we had a good experience overall and were satisfied with the stay.

Pros: Location

Pros: Fabulous location. Courteous staff.

Pros: Very fast WiFi, communal kitchen, lovely views, towels included, plenty of space for a room on a boat.

Cons: More privacy in the open showers

Pros: Good kitchen area, clean bedroom. You can eat outside of the ship

Cons: Common toilet wasn´t so clean. Sometimes just hot water from the bathtab. Staff were professionel , but not too friendly. (But aften some days we saw it is normal in Stockholm. ) Missing information about, that we have to sleep on another "ship". You have to imagine, that you are in a camp, so it will be ok.

Pros: Location

Cons: Poor rooms, access to rooms poor, more expensive room like goldfish bowl with windows on 3 sides. Very difficult to close curtains for any privacy,

Pros: Breakfast and bar and lunch

Cons: No tea/ coffee or water in the room. Need ladder to get to top bunk & mattress topper

Pros: Everything was perfect! Clean bedroom, clean towels everyday, clean toilet and a nice guest kitchen! Also the staff was very nice

Cons: The kitchen could have more cutlery

Pros: We loved that it actually was a boat and the people that’s work there was friendly and helpful. In the sun this is a splendid place to be.

Cons: The sun was very hot and intense when we where there and our cabin got it all day. Easier ways to cover the windows or an air conditioner would do the trick.

Pros: The kitchen things available were great. The hostel was really easy to get to from gamla stan which was great. staff was very friendly and the room was great and the beds are very comfortable.

Cons: the hallway smelt a bit weird. nothing too dreadful but it didn't seem to go away. a little annoying they only gave my friend and me one key however they were very helpful and let me in with id when i was on my own. the constant noise of the sea against the ship is a little annoying but you get used to it quickly. just bear in mind you will be able to feel the boat move which is kinda to be expected

Pros: The room was excellent great view. Larger than I expected.

Cons: Forgot it had no air conditioning very hot but closed curtains during the day and left windows opened and thus worked really well.

Pros: Clean towels everyday, and freshly made bed every second day. Toilets and shower room would also be very fresh. Nice breakfast, and a nice bar for some laid back time ik the evening. Overall clean and nice.

Cons: Stayed on Rygerfjord III and it could get a little bit noisy by the other guests, like slamming the gate and doors and running around in the hallway. But it would always be quiet from 24-07. Somedays the showers would only get to lukewarm.

Pros: The spiders mother (the biggest spider I've ever seen) cooked for me a topical sweedish stew. It was very nice

Cons: The spiders army in the room's window. They forced me to drink vodka with them until the lost awareness

Cons: Breakfast was terrible. Way too many people! Had to wait in line for everything!

Pros: Very good breakfast with a wide range of choices

Pros: Excellent breakfast, good location, friendly staff

Cons: Room was without windows

Pros: Very good breakfast and good price

Cons: Lobby and reception area need improvement.

Pros: Good breakfast.

Cons: No decent aircondition, rooms were hot. Fridge from our room was removed, only empty place left.

Pros: close to the metro, quiet street, 7/eleven supermarket around the corner. staff polite, but not enough for the demand. a place for never again.

Cons: The room on the basement, with no windows, no information about it, no air conditioner, only an old fan - loud, the room looks more an old prison, the shower float all over the place, its possible to hear others room all night, the breakfast queue show how the hotel doesn't care about the guest, even 10min to replace cutlery. honestly i am sorry for don't spent 30$ more for a better place.

Pros: Good location to metro and airport buses. good (but quite busy) breakfast.

Cons: they did not clean our room despite having the Clean My Room Sign up outside since 9am, upon returning around 3pm. They could pay attention to the cleanliness of the toilet brush holder, at least in the room I stayed in.

Pros: Excellent breakfast (yes, the waffle-making machine is a huge bonus!), quiet room, great city view. Very convenient location close to the metro and a lovely park, with supermarkets and eateries in the vicinity. Overall, we would stay there again and would recommend it.

Cons: A great improvement would be to have a refrigerator in the room! The management could think about people wanting to just have cold juice or milk for their kids... The room can get a bit stuffy as you can't open the windows and the air-conditioning may not be adequate in warm months. The single beds are a little too narrow for comfort.

Pros: Nicely located. Excellent breakfast. Good room for a family.

Pros: Location, price

Cons: Breakfast is so so
