Stockholm Hostels - The Vandrarhem You Will LoveStockholm hostels – or vandrarhem in Swedish – are among the best in the world. Facilities are of great quality, the atmosphere is friendly, prices are affordable for everyone and the locations are – in one word – magnificent. Have you ever slept in a prison cell?
Yes, you can do so – even without committing a crime. Simply book a room in the Långholmen vandrarhem (see picture) on the island with the same name.It's an old prison building. The windows are extremely small, that’s true, but you do have a breathtaking view. Locations of other Stockholm hostels are just as peculiar.
Wake up in the heart of Gamla Stan, right in the middle of the city’s best sightseeing area. Or spend the night on a former fisher boats like M/S Rygerfjorden or the Red Boat Mälaren. The beautiful skyline of the Swedish capital will greet you every morning you look through the porthole. Swedish youth hostels are not only accessible for youth. You can meet people from all ages (but young at heart!) and make contact with travelers from all over the world. Prices? They vary from place to place, but are never high. A dormitory bed is the cheapest option, but in many hostels you can book your own room too.

The Stockholm hostels are also an affordable alternative for families with small children. Backpackers and Eurail travelers that are passing through should know that several Stockholm hostels are close to the central railway station. Book online - Wake up and meet the magic of Stockholm

To make it as easy as possible for you, I teamed up with a dozen hostels in the Swedish capital. All are members of Hostelworld. This is the largest provider in the online budget hostel industry.
All accommodations are clearly described. Pictures give you an idea of their rooms and facilities. What you see is what you get. No unpleasant surprises! By booking online you also benefit from the lowest prices. And you do not even have to pay all at once – you only pay a small deposit when you book. The rest you settle on arrival. So you can already book an accommodation even before you start the summer job that pays your vacation! So ...
