I am amazed by the 5 star ratings this place is getting from other travellers. I have stayed in some fanatstic hostels and this is not one of them. This is just another run of the mill hostel. It has a silence policy after 11pm which no-one enforces. The showers are communal and anyone can see you in the showers... more

We spent 4 nights in the 6 person apartment that has a small kitchen and ensuite toilet and shower. The hostel is a nice facility in a great location. Our only complaint is with the front desk people that do not enforce the rules that are posted everywhere. Rules include: silence after 23:00 (11 pm) and no partying/drinking at the... more

I booked this hostel at hostelbookers.com at the rate of GBP17.46. Compared to all the hostels and hotels in Sweden, the price is very reasonable. The female bathroom of this hotel is very clean. The receptionists are all very nice and friendly, like all the other Swedish people. There are many computers with internet connection available, so staying connected to... more

It's a very confortable place. While stayin there I had the chance to know a lot of people from different sides of the world. Backpackers (as the name suggests) is the perfect place for REAL tavellers. It offers a lot of services, it has a kitchen when you can cook whatever you want (Stockholm is the most expensive city I've... more

Absolutely fabulous! First off, the location is really good because it's a short walk from the bus station and metro stop, and several attractions are nearby. Then the facilities are such a good value for the price: they've got washers and dryers, a full kitchen, clean showers and washrooms, newspapers, free pasta, free net on several computers, lockers in the... more

Great time - three of us stayed in a four bed room (with one other) - reasonable size. Facilities excellent - free sauna for one hour for each sex (5-6 and 6-7) - available at other times for c25 kronors (I think). They organise a superb trip to a lake and sauna - the viking spa experience. This is not... more

What a great friendly little place and very reasonably priced. All receptionists very helpful and efficient. Nice and secure, free wifi and hot showers!! My only complaint was the bed and pillow were a bit lumpy but I enjoyed my stay very much and will be back. more

Very central location in Norrmalm, best area of Stockholm. 5minutes walk to the pedestrian area and the beautiful centre!! ... and 15minutes walk to the Old Town Excellent Location! would not recommend car hire as car parking is a problem in the area and costs. though a car is not needed due that it is 10minutes walk to central station. more

The hostel has a good location about 8 minutes walk from the central station. It is massive and clean. The no shoes policy is sensible and must make life easier for the cleaners. It is compulsory to buy sheets so factor that in to the cost of your stay (50 kroners). This hostel is warm, clean and has three internet... more

Ive stayed in about 15 hostels, and this is by far the best! Fantastic location, good price, excellent facilities - TV's, games, internet access computers, kitchen with free pasta and tea. Great staff, and discount at bar next door! Dorms and showers are ultra clean and comfortable. Theres no negative to this hostel more
