City Backpackers is the base camp for the Stockholm explorer. If you like meeting new people, you will have the time of your life here! The location is the best possible in the city centre - safe and quiet, although only a 500 meter walk from the central railway station and bus terminal. Most of the city's sights, including the Old Town, can be found within walking distance, and the main shopping street, Drottninggatan, is just around the corner.
City Backpackers is designed to be a great meeting place, where you are guaranteed to meet and hang out with other travellers from all over the world if you want to.
You can stay in a single or twin room, or a dorm with three, four, five, six, eight, eleven or 12 beds. Female dorms are provided. We also have two apartments/studios for up to six people with private bathroom, shower and kitchen.
We have several common areas where you can hang out and meet other travellers: A large, fully-equipped guest kitchen and a new cozy in-house backpacker café with breakfast options and a great variety of sandwiches, cookies, snacks and hot and cold drinks all day long. When you want to relax there is a hot sauna and lounge areas with satellite TV, daily newspapers and a book exchange available. You can also borrow a DVD with some of the best ever Swedish films, with English subtitles. The hostel also keeps a nice courtyard at your disposal. Smoking is allowed in the yard, but nowhere else.
Our staff takes turns showing Stockholm to our guests. Winter season we offer a very popular and incomparable Viking sauna tour in a nearby frozen lake. All year we arrange picnics, tours and adventures several times a week.
City Backpackers has an environmental-friendly approach. We practice waste recycling, use electricity from renewable sources, energy efficient whitewares and light bulbs, and have an over all environmental policy. We love our planet and want to save it!
City Backpackers is open 365 days a year and has no curfew. No hostel membership is needed.
We can't wait to see you, welcome to Stockholm!
