Find a place to put up at Stockholm
Stockholm and Scandinavia in general are certainly not among the cheapest areas in our world – go and ask the tourists. To sum up and be brief we would like to say that people who are looking for where to stay in Stockholm or Stockholm accomodation can select among these variants – affordable (hostels, ships), moderately expensive (hotels) and really expensive (luxurious hotels).
Saving solution
The hotels belonging to globally known players appear to be too costly as places to stay in Stockholm for cheap visitors and foreign students. Such a choice is totally normal since super comfort of Stockholm b&b is unimportant for certain type of travelers. Overall foreign students and just people who do not wish to pay much look for hostels. Fortunately, tough competition among Stockholm hotels makes them provide some discounts and exclusive offers – use it if you don’t like hostels but don’t want to pay too much.
Many authentic Swedish stylish and neat hotels may be found all around the city. The possibility to come on some discount and get a great room for cheap is high. The ultimate pro argument is that it is much more pleasant to be living in a place built and arranged in the traditional Swedish style than in an ordinary hostel tends to look pretty like all other European hostels.
What about staying on a ship?
What about staying on a ship?
Those who know geography also know that Swedish capitan is an island city and cheap accomodation in Stockholm can be found on ships. That is why people call Stockholm “Northern Venetia”. All ship hotels can be found in the central part of Stockholm so you will have everything close. You will be surprised with how attractive the room prices in a ship are comparing to any other accommodation in Stockholm. That is really nice accomodation in Stockholm!.
Read online forums and make sure that other tourists confirm it – hundreds of them also prefer ships. According to the tourists’ words, the ships are basically staying quite close to the city center. It means that you will not be living in a cool place but also have all main attraction sites right near.
Turn into a local citizen
If you want more comfort and freedom you could check rental houses and apartments. Due to quite high pension in Sweden its people can afford to pay expensive rent, which means you need to be ready for unexpectedly high prices. It means that local people are not afraid of such prices, but tourists are usually disappointed.
Nevertheless, it doesn’t mean that you cannot find less costly apartments several kilometers away from the center. You will thus save money and see how Stockholm inhabitants live. That’s a great experience as well. It is also a chance to check if there is a significant different between center and other parts of Stockholm.
Rental apartments and houses perfectly suit visitors who are not obsessed with finding absolutely every attraction. Every city always has two sides and Stockholm is not exclusion here. Living with locals will allow you to get the full picture.
Top level of comfort
Finally, there is one more segment of travelers. They are the people preferring absolute comfort in everything. A prestigious hotel with ample rooms and tasty breakfasts are the best then. Stockholm can offer a great deal of international hotel chains. It could be a sensible idea to check out local Stockholm hotel chains too. Moreover, you will see in the streets some single hotels which look much more beautiful and much more Swedish.
As for staying in the very city center we would recommend Grand Hotel – its location is undoubtedly the best. All famous museums, all great views and all awesome bars and clubs will be within walking distance which is super convenient. But don’t forget about really high prices – they can be higher than in the majority of other Western European capitals.
Surfing for a coach
When talking about bed and breakfast in Stockholm we immediately start thinking about hotels, cheaper hostels and rental houses and apartments. The tourists who love “camping wild” will certainly prefer a free thing called “couchsurfing”. It’s very easy to get a place in Stockholm even for the people who have not done it before. There is no difficulty at all – create a personal profile on Couchsurfing and find an available Stockholm host. It will be the most affordable and – if you adore talking to new people – most fascinating way to discover Swedish capital.
