This is my second stay here at this hostel. I loved it the first time I stayed and now I couldn't miss the chance of staying here again when I was back in Stockholm. It was exceptional again, everything is great, smooth, clean, and good value for money.

Staff is awesome! It feels to be in family and every night is cool there, plenty of backpackers around the world. Perfect Location and very comfortable rooms.

I stayed here during New Year's Eve with four other people. We booked a private apartment for a cheap price. The location is in a quiet place near the center of Stockholm.

The place is very well decorated and the safety level is very insuring. The rooms and bathrooms are clean. Definitely worth the price!

If you like board games, the selection here is insane! So many fridges, and they are quite clean, also kitchen is sorted, which is quite rare in big hostels. FREE SAUNA Nice big common areas.

Everything was perfect, the general atmosphere, the organization of the hostel, and everything was clean and the facilities were excellent. Also the people working in the hostel, especially Gohar, they were so friendly and made me feel like at home. For sure when I next visit Stockholm City Backpackers will be my first choice.

lived for very short time. Nothing much to say. Short-term experience was good :) Staffs were very helpful

Just wow. The best hostel I've ever been in. Absolutely amazing staff, perfect atmosphere. Clean. They even have a sauna ;)

Probably the best hostel in Stockholm. Nice Staff ;) Free Pasta. Chill shared area. Very secured with 4 multiple door codes, changing everyday.

really great hostel. met very interesting people while I was there. the location is unbeatable.
