Bed and breakfast in Stockholm
Stockholm and Scandinavia in general are definitely not the cheapest places in our world – go and ask the experienced tourists. That is why when speaking about where to stay in Stockholm we should say that there are several kinds of Stockholm accomodation – cheaper hostels, rather costly hotels and luxurious hotels, houses and apartments.
Saving solution
The hotels belonging to worldwide known players are too expensive as places to stay in Stockholm for thrifty visitors and foreign students. Such people are often not interested in any luxury – they are totally well with any more affordable Stockholm b&b places. Basically young tourists and just people who don’t wish to waste much money prefer hostels. There are a lot of great hostels in Stockholm, however we suggest that you check available hotel rooms.
There are dozens of cozy hotels made in that charming Swedish style. The probability to chance upon some seasonal discount and get a nice room for low price is truly high. To sum up, it’s definitely better to find a room in an authentic Swedish hotel than to choose an ordinary hostel full of irritating and noisy guests.

Check out a ship hotel
Could you think that cheap accommodation in Stockholm may be found not on the land only but in the local water? Thus there is no wonder about the title “Northern Venetia” granted by tourists. Booking a room in a ship provides you with a big opportunity to stay in the very center. You will be surprised with how attractive the room prices in a ship are in comparison with other accommodation in Stockholm. That is really nice accomodation in Stockholm!.
Experienced tourists also claim that staying in a ship is actually much cheaper and better than in any “land hotel”. You will see that people love ship hotels because of the advantages described above. It means that you will not be living in a cool place but also have all main attraction sites right near.
Feel the life of a Stockholm inhabitant
Rental house or apartment may also become a worthy idea. It is relatively costly choice, but you need to consider that average wage and pension in Sweden is almost the highest in the whole world. Well, that is the reason of why houses for rent are not much popular.
A great solution would be to rent a small house far from the city center. You will then save money and see better how Stockholm people live. It will be a memorable time for you. It is also a fabulous chance to check if there is a significant different between the central part and other districts of Stockholm.
Renting a house or an apartment may appear to be the most interesting option for the people who have already visited Swedish capital and seen its attraction sites. There are tons of awesome things in non-touristic areas too. Living with Swedish local people will allow you to get the full picture.
Luxury and comfort
Finally, there is another kind of tourists. They are the people preferring total comfort in everything. A good hotel with big and clean rooms and delicious breakfasts are the best then. Stockholm can offer a large number of global hotel chains. Local chains can seem interesting as well. Small local inns and hotels can also be comfortable enough to satisfy all your expectations.
The best situation among all top-level hotels rightfully belongs to Grand Hotel. Historical places, restaurants, museums – everything is literally within a walking distance from Grand Hotel. Unfortunately, the booking costs can be embarrassing for the tourists who counted on the room prices like in other Western countries.
Find your couch
When talking about bed and breakfast in Stockholm we all start thinking about hotels, cheaper hostels and rental apartments and houses. The tourists who love travel independently will certainly prefer a free and cool option called “couchsurfing”. It’s easy to find a “coach” in Stockholm even for the people who have never done such things before. There is no difficulty at all – go and make a personal profile on Couchsurfing and find your Stockholm host. It’s going to become a really cheap way to discover the city and to make new friends.
