Hi!
I'll (female traveller, 26) be in Stockholm for 2 week nights at the end of november and I am looking for a nice hostel (dorm room) close to the center, safe for return at night and most of all clean. Looking to spend about 260 to 320 SEK per night.
I was looking at some online and was wondering if you have any recommendation?
STF Stockholm - Fridhemsplan
CityBackPackers
STF Vandrarhem af Chapman & Skeppsholmen
Archipelago Hostel Old Town
Many thanks
CityBackPackers is five minutes walk from the train station , the most central location . Clean but somewhat cramped.
af Chapman & Skeppsholmen are heavily booked , close to the water obviously . Never stayed on the boat. Museum of Modern Art & Photography nearby , a few cafeterias etc.
Less central , hardly an issue with the subway , are Långholmen and Zinkensdamm. Långholmen was a prison ( I have a workmate who served some time there as a conscientous objector ) built in the 19th century , a lot of the dorms are two bed cells. Also the site for Swedens last capital punishment in 1910. Picknick spot today.
Zinkensdamm is a personal favorite landing back in Sweden after travel , situated at the end of a park, with adjoining pub.
If you can, take the boat - it's a fun experience and it was recently renovated. I also agree with #1 about Zinkensdamm, it is not only a decent place to stay, it also sits in a pretty nice and not overly touristy area.
Af Chapman and Skeppsholmen are great places, but not THAT central as it requires a bit of walking, if it's a main concern for OP...
I would heartily recommend STF Fridhemsplan. I was 26 and travelling solo when I stayed there a couple of years ago - I think I stayed in a room with 3 beds and it was very nice and clean, and the T-bana (metro) is a short walk away, only a few stops from central Stockholm.
