Overall Ratings & Reviews STF Zinkensdamm Hostel

I liked this hotel much better than a large chain hotel as it had character and the food was good, though the portions are small. It was an excellent place to stay for our first day in Sweden.

We had a really nice stay- great value in a lovely and convenient location. Appreciated the use of the kitchen. We were really pleased with our experience.

This is our default go-to hotel whenever we travel to Stockholm. Staff is amazing, location ideal for us, value for money is unbeatable. Warmly recommended within this price/comfort standard bracket.

Bar staff and reception staff a true credit

Amazing, and amazing area around the hostel

Not so good, simple room, common bathroom, no friendly vibes around

We stayed in the hotel part, not the hostel. Nice private room with private toilet & shower. Check-in was problematic. The price I was expected to pay---in Swedish crowns---seemed high. Fortunately, my accountant son caught the discrepancy. I had told him the Hotels.com price in U.S. dollars. It turned out that STF was trying to charge us a price $300 higher than the Hotels.com price! It took her awhile, but the check-in clerk eventually found the error (we had to show her the Hotels.com reservation confirmation). She said that someone had neglected to press a button to give us the Hotels.com price. But we had booked it on Hotels.com!!!!

great but limited food options and groceries are far away

I really like this hotel/hostel. The rooms are the same whether you stay in the hostel or hotel if you want ensuite toilet. If you can bring your own bed linen and towels, it becomes much cheaper. The breakfast and location is fantastic for park, restaurants, transport.

The room was very clean and spacious. Our room had a bathroom/shower in it as well. There was a shared kitchen area which was great for making breakfast in the mornings. The location was super great as well. It is close to the water front and also close to shopping stores and grocery stores. Transit was a close walk as well.

Very basic room. Noisy air ventilation and banging doors.

Very nice staff with awesome help Im comimg back thank you

Brilliant hotel and hostel in a good location. Staff are friendly, food is excellent. Highly recommend

My friend and I spent a long weekend here in late September 2018 (3 nights). The staff was very welcoming and helpful. Shared facilities such as the WC and showers were very clean and never very busy. There is even a shared kitchen with excellent cooking facilities. We were also very happy with our room which was just the right size (and the mattress was comfy enough!). Overall I was very impressed as customer experience was top notch although the room was affordable. The area is lovely and green and about 5 minutes' walk to Hornsgatan, a large road with several shops, bars and restaurants which seem to be popular with locals and tourists alike. We walked everywhere from the hotel but if you prefer using the subway there is a T-stop about 4 minutes from the hotel. I will definitely be returning to Zinkensdamm Hotel in the future! Thanks for a great stay.

We were on a budget trip. The room was very small but clean. Staff were very pleasant. There was a shared kitchen and eating space. You can use a private space in the fridge. Sweden can be expensive so we cooked some meals ourselves. It felt like student days but actually quite pleasant to be surrounded by lots of lovely languages and my children made friends. Just a few metres away is an excellent play park. A little further and you reach the water. In good weather you can swim there. The tube was easy to use. We caught the commuter boat to sightsee on the water - much cheaper and arguably better than the sightseeing version as we got to sit outside in lovely weather.

I slept in a hostel part, everything allright, really liked the location

Nice hotel with a great breakfast buffé for such a small place. Great area

The room is small and stuffy, and the ceiling is low.

It was humble but amazing!

Good value by Stockholm standards, hostel is a little out of the way with shops etc about ten minutes walk near the Zinkensdamm tunnelbana station. Tourist attractions are a few stops away on the tunnelbana also.
