Overall Ratings & Reviews Skanstulls Boutique Hostel

Great public transport links. We booked a private shower room with no windows and it was great. No issues at all. Also very walkable to “Meatballs for the People” which i highly recommend!

Clear instructions for smooth after hours check in. Zebra double ensuited room: Very clean, comfortable beds [linen provided & you make the bed yourself], quiet room, good shower pressure, fast hot water, big TV, many English language TV programs, pedestal fan, well equipped communal kitchen [no freezer], several nearby supermarkets, close walk to Skanstull Tunnelbana [Subway] station, helpful staff. Suitcases fit under the bed. Long daylight hours did not hamper sleep as hostel is one level underground, therefore no windows. Would stay again and recommend to others. Tip to easily and cheaply reach Arlanda Airport using SL transport pass or single ticket: 1. Tunnelbana from Skanstull to T-Centralen takes 4 mins [ lines 17, 18, or 19 ] then look for signs from the platform for Commuter Rail 2. Commuter Train from Stockholm City [ perhaps platform 1 or 2 ] to Marsta Station takes 37 mins 3. exit Marsta train Station to Bus stop A for Bus 583 towards Arlanda Airport takes 11 mins

Location is perfect, train station is 2 minutes away and if you have to take a flight late at night then night bus stand is just 3 minutes away.

Lovely staff, clean & well kept in a interesting area

The 2 women who run the property were very nice and polite.

The staff were very friendly and the rooms were clean and comfortable. The bathroom and kitchen facilities were also great. The only down side was hearing drilling near our room at 8am in the morning one day.

Ok for the money. Clean and quiet. Good location for me.

Great place Clean comfortable Friendly staff Great location Highly recommend 💯

Very compact single room, smartly designed, but you can’t help to feel that you are in a closet. For the price, i’m happy, as it offers private rooms at shared room rates. But if you have a bit more to spend, I would recommend splashing out a bit more. The kitchen is a good resource. The showers were okay.

A hidden gem. Thank you for the opportunity to stay.

Well done

I had a much better experience than expected there. I loved the design and atmosphere the owners created. It was full of friendly people to have a pleasant chat with. Just remember to start the conversation, as we're in an era of looking down at our mobile phones. There were loads of clever ideas, like a marking system for food with your name and leaving date. People remember to wash their dishes but for some reason forget to dry and put them away to leave the space free for the next person who needs a drying rack. Enjoy.

Fab decor

I had a single room with window. Perfect! (Except the bed was a bit uncomfortable:hard) but everything else was amazing! Room was quiet, private bathrooms outside the door, good kitchen down the hall and great private showers with giant rain head and lots of hot water. Everything was super! clean and plenty of room/availability of toilets/showers etc.

Best hostel I’ve stayed in so far. Provide towels and clean sheets and staff is thoroughly attentive.

Great stay. Great location. Helped me out tremendously with a luggage situation.

I don't leave reviews often, but this was a great place to stay, I felt inspired! I felt very safe as a solo female traveler. I had a private windowless room, it was small, but also comfortable and perfect for what I needed. The facility was very clean and quiet, but also had 2 common spaces to make friends if that's what you want. There were several bathrooms that were very clean and the showers had amazing water pressure. The surrounding neighborhood is cool, with good shops and restaurants, a little outside of central Stockholm, but the hostel is close to a metro location.

Great! I had no problems and was impressed with how nice it all was for the price.

Stockholm in the Skanstulls area is a little raw. This is not a bad thing. There is a lot of great eating options and a supermarket in the railway tunnel that is open till 23:45. The Skanstulls Boutique Hostel is mostly below street level so most rooms have no natural light and can be like a dungeon. The staff offered to shift us to a room with a window but we would have lost our private bathroom so we stayed where we were. It was clean and quiet and the kitchen was well appointed and managed. All in all a very good hostel.

Best hostel I have stayed in. Very clean hostel, friendly and helpful staff.
