        We stayed in a cheap but good hotel. But I can't remember the name, so my post is absolutely worthless.

          http://castaneavandrarhem.se/ OK, cosy-looking hostel in the old town (close to Söder (south hood) where the better shopping is located. About 20€ a night for shared sleeping facilities.

          http://www.gustafafklint.se/ On a boat, slightly more expensive than and adjacent to aforementioned (google af chapman if you want a fancier boat)

          http://www.interhostel.se/ Your typical hostel, located fairly downtown. About 20-30€ per night.

          http://www.lodge32.se/ Have not seen it personally, but rumour says it pretty decent. 20-35€ per night, located at Kungsholmen, an island located between the old town/center and söder, calm and quiet with good walks nearby.

          PM me for shopping, clubbing and other tips

              I stayed twice in Hotel Amaranten. Not cheap, but the best breakfast buffet. I ate two hours every morning.

                When in Stockholm, visit Sivletto….

                Been in Stockholm plenty of times, but never stayed in cheap hotel...can't help you on that. Any plans on taking the ferry to Finland?

                  been in Stockholm one time already, but just 2days for the NHL season opening game back in 2009 and the hostel we've stayed in is full already!
                  checking out the addresses captain linked me too as we speak!
                  and no IJ, not planing on going to FL, since we just be staying 3days!

                    Hey Captain, instead of pm´ing you i think it´s better if you just post a few "need to go" places and all that stuff one needs to know, when visiting stockholm, directly in this thread so that everyone can have the informations.
                    Would be nice! Thx…

                          Great tips Jii! You might like Beyond Retro, Snaekers n Stuff and maybe Granpa too. Oh, and ikea!  😉

                          If you like ice hockey I recommend attending a bandy match (like a mixture of hockey and fotball, golf swings allowed). Hammarby is the Stockholm team to cheer for.

                          If you wanna do tourist stuff, take the commuter train one station to Karlberg and take a walk around the old military base/castle - costs nothing, nice scenary and takes like an hour in total. Fotografiska museum is good as well.

                            och man måste besöka också i Etniska och Tekniska Museét.

                            If museums interest, both Ethnic and Technic Museums are a must, and they are side by side if I remember correct…

                            edit...doh...finns giving tips for Stockholm

                              I´ll stay in stockholm gamlastan btw. …so everything around this place is interesting to visit i´d say.
                              from my last trip to stockholm (only 2 days for the NHL game!) i have in mind that almost everything you want to see/ go to is reachable with a short walk. that´s what i love about the city so much!...

                                  a bit windy, but steady sunshine and overall nice weather. Some open air cafes open. Cold nights though, bring sweater and mittens

                                      Gamlastan is a cool place to stay.

                                      You should have the strömming, I think it's called. It's a little fried and pickled herring on a piece of Knächebröd. Just opposite of Gamlastan at Södermalm at the big place, sold from a trailer like shop.
                                      And if you like icecream, go here: http://www.stikkinikki.com/en/Hem.html
                                      It's also in Södermalm, on the hill when you come from Gamlastan.
                                      And I'd recommend to get this bicycle card: http://www.citybikes.se/en/
                                      Probably makes more sense if you stay at least four, five days. At the tourist info (near the train station) you can buy a card.

                                      And I think you already have a place, otherwise basically all hostels in Gamlastan are nice. I can specifically recommend this: http://www.archipelagohostel.se/
                                      And if you want to stay more in the Södermalm area this is good, too: http://www.skanstulls.se/
                                      It's actually quite close to Unionville. If you are in need, I'd also get a hair cut at the cool rockabilly barber next to Sivletto. Sivletto and Unionville are in parallel streets and there is a little alley between them.

                                      Another cool option is staying on this boat hostel (North part of Södermalm): http://www.theredboat.com/

                                      I'd also recommend to take the boat trip and visit the Vasa museum, where you can see the old big ship of that name.

                                      And if you like coffee, there are some excellent places. I liked these the most:
                                      http://www.johanochnystrom.se/index.php
                                      http://www.dropcoffee.se/
                                      These two are also in Södermalm, very  close to each other.
                                      And: http://www.muggen.se
                                      This is also in Södermalm, close to the icecream place actually.

                                      Have fun. It's really a great city.

                                          Alright lads and lassies… anyone been here recently?

                                          Heading in June for a long weekend and would like a very central hotel.  Preferably a bit under 150£ / 2000 kroner a night, leaning towards a more hipster type place than a chain... Cheers!

                                            i'd recommend staying in a hostel or something like that. you might be in the streets all day long so you actually just need something to sleep in and where they serve a nice breakfast 🙂
                                            can't remember the names of my hostels (been there 3-times), but all in all i can say that everything is in walking distance. get google maps on your smartphone and start walking…stockholm is an awesome city as you might know!
