    I stayed at City Backpackers for 3 nights and was pleasantly surprised by the friendly staff and positive energy throughout the hostel. The rooms were clean and spacious, with outlets and reading lamps for each bed. I loved the layout and the fact that the rooms were soundproof, allowing for a peaceful night's sleep. The shared kitchen was well-equipped, and I appreciated the free pasta provided. The location was perfect, with easy access to shopping and downtown exploration. a great place to make friends and enjoy your stay.

    Would definitely recommend this hotel.

    Great location, within walking distance to restaurants, shops, and transportation hubs. Clean and comfortable rooms, with daily cleaning in some areas. - Friendly and helpful staff, providing recommendations for sightseeing and answering questions.

    Inconsistent knowledge and service from reception staff, with one employee being more helpful than another. Some issues with cleaning staff, including mistakenly throwing away personal belongings and not respecting guests' privacy.

    needed a clean safe bed in the downtown for a night. got it.

    no shower available for those who stay in 8-bed rooms? +5 extra euros for bed linen= 30euros for an 8-bed-no-shower room = it is such a lame thing to travel alone not being able to share the room with smbd. could get a ok hotel for that price, not in the downtown of course.

    Excellent location and price.

    Bed is uncomfortable a little bit. Breakfast is expensive considering the price(40SEK).

    Conveniently located near the city center, City Backpackers offers great facilities and a chilled vibe. The living area is nice and there are separate fridges for each room. The hostel is clean and in a great location, with friendly staff and plenty of nearby restaurants and shops.

    walking distance to everything. staff are very friendly and helpful. one of the best hostels i have stayed at with a gorgeous outdoor area with blankets and heaps of computers with free internet to use.

    you have to pay for linen and breakfast. it should be included in the rate for free.

    Very kind staff and very willing to help you. Perfect location. Very close to the City Terminal and other city facilities. Good breakfast facilities. Very good hostel for a city trip.

    The rooms are thin-walled. Everybody lives up to the 23h silence rule, but there still are alot of noises. The room was partly underground so it was equiped with a noisy ac.

    The facilities (well-equipped kitchen, sauna, wifi, pc's, common space), The international and friendly atmosphere.

    They make people move from one room to another pretty often (for cleaning purposes I guess). Most dorms are underground and might be a bit dull: for sleeping only!

    The room we stayed in had a private entrance and a fully equipped kitchen. The bed was comfortable and the room was clean and cozy. The hostel had a warm and welcoming atmosphere, making it easy to socialize with other travelers. The staff were friendly and helpful. The location was convenient, close to the city terminalen and with free Wi-Fi available. I would definitely recommend this hostel for a pleasant stay in Stockholm.
