Amelie V.
I love this place and can't wait to come back. It's my second home in Stockholm, and this was my fourth visit. The cozy atmosphere, clean spaces, friendly staff, and lovely kitchen all make it feel like coming home. The location in the heart of Gamla Stan is wonderful, too. My one gripe is the mattresses in the 16-bed dorm. They're quite worn, even with the toppers, so replacing them someday would be great. Big hugs to the team, see you next time.

The hostel was peaceful and very clean, and the staff were lovely. It's right by the main square in the heart of the city, but surprisingly quiet, with no street noise coming through. I stayed here with my family and was glad I picked it after reading the reviews. For sightseeing, it's a great budget-friendly option. Highly recommend it.

Right in Stockholm's Old Town, this hostel is spotless and quiet, with a modern, well-stocked kitchen and a cozy common room full of books, including fiction and travel guides. The staff have also put together a helpful Stockholm guide for guests. They were quick to help people with problems, such as moving rooms when bunkmates were noisy. My only issue was having to pay extra for sheets.

The Old Town location worked well for me. I booked five nights in a 12-bed dorm through booking.com, then added two nights in a private room for Christmas 2025. Prices dropped, so if you're traveling in the off season, it may be worth waiting before booking.

The common areas were clean and practical, and the place felt quiet and relaxing. Great location, friendly atmosphere, and helpful staff.
