Hobo Hotel

Fabulous hotel to stay in when visiting Stockholm. The location is perfect for all the sights, particularly Gamla Stan. Easy access from main station and metro stops. The decor and atmosphere is fun. Room was a good size and had in it everything we needed. The breakfast is excellent and is in a fabulous space with views and great selection of fresh food. I would highly recommend but do need to advise that on Friday and Saturday night very noisy from local bar and club. Other nights extremely quiet.

Overall an amazing stay! I would return. 9 I have to start by saying that Flo or Fiorentina at the reception Is one of the nicest people I have ever met. She was so kind to my husband and I during our stay. She was always there for help or to chat. Our room was upgraded to a corner room unexpectedly so that also made for a great trip. The breakfast is one of the best I have ever experienced in many years traveling. The view from the room top is one of the best you can get. My biggest complaint is that there are no overhead lights in the rooms. We went to Stockholm in October so it was mostly dark by 16:00. When we arrived in the room it was hard to see some things because the lights are dim even when turned up to the highest brightness. Like others have said, this isn't a hotel for the lightest of sleepers. They do have parties in the lobbies and across the street at a karaoke bar on the weekend.

Great location near shopping, restaurants, attractions, and many well known bars. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Rooms are comfortable and spacious, although the bathroom had some buildup on tiles. The breakfast is good and consistent, but can get a bit repetitive if you're staying for a long duration. Overall, I highly recommend this hotel.

Just a 💯 top-notch experience all around. Front desk staff were amazing, very accommodating at check-in. Rooms are trendy and love the style sense of humour. Laundry and gym are fully stocked. Ironing board setup is perfect for work travel. Location is central with access to everything. THE BREAKFAST @ Tak is one of the best I have ever experienced. Highly recommend + I will be back!

We loved the Hobo Hotel! The beds were comfortable. We got the smaller room which didn't have a window, but honestly we liked it because it allowed us to sleep in without worrying about the sun waking us up. I wish there was more space to lay out our suitcase, but it wasn't a big deal. The hotel lobby is nice with a bar and there was always a great vibe down there! The location is perfect with a short walking distance to Gamla Stan and also it is located near the Central Station which was very convenient. Our room included breakfast which was great! The building also has a rooftop bar which was really cool. I would definitely recommend this hotel!

An unforgettable stay, made truly special by the incredible staff. A huge thank you to Flo, Arvid, and the entire team for going above and beyond. Their recommendations for restaurants, sightseeing, and even a local barbershop were spot-on. They happily mailed my postcards, helped debug my Bluetooth speaker, gave me a quirky tour of the service elevator, and even let me try their excellent, Hobo-exclusive craft beer at a discount. More than anything, they were just genuinely a pleasure to chat with. While my room wasn't large, it was brilliantly designed—convenient, comfortable, and felt like home. The included breakfast buffet is a highlight, with options for everyone and fantastic city views. The hotel's central location, just a five-minute walk from the T-Centralen station (with its direct airport train), is unbeatable for exploring the city. Don't miss the lively bar in the evening, complete with a DJ and great snacks. Highly recommended!

Swanky modern style of Hotel. Great location with tons of dining options within a 10 minute walk, and close to a lot of attractions. Nice European style breakfast with plenty of options that was included with the price of the room. Nice clean bathroom, but the beds and pillows were a little less than desirable. Outlets were not easy to get to as they are under the desk like furniture at the head of the bed, ( which is opposite of the norn ). We would probably not stay at this Hotel in the future, due to the beds and issues with the ventilation system and lack of response from the front desk.

Reserved the Sleeper room. Room was cozy and modern, clean and had a peg-wall for lots of room to hang clothes and misc. Staff was friendly and approachable. Breakfast was included and it was one of the best breakfast buffets I ever had! Good quality food, lots of different choices were available and staff kept the restaurant spotless and maintained the buffet fully stocked of food items.

Amazing hotel! The hobo is in a superb location. The front desk were so friendly and helpful. The rooms are clean. They offer luggage lockers for free also laundry! The breakfast was delicious as well!

One of my favorite hotels in the world! In an area full of food, shopping, and transit that gets you here and there, the rooms are exceptional.

Wonderful location--very close to the train station (5-blocks walkable). Rooms are super clean and different in their layout. Staff is great/super friendly and helpful too! The only small downside is no in-room refrigerator but they have a great bar downstairs that has a massive selection of drinks with fun bartenders!

This hotel was perfect for the Stockholm experience. It's located RIGHT next to an amazing burger place/mall area that includes a Joe + The Juice so food options are aplenty. The room was clean and organized in such a way that even though it was smaller, it felt more spacious. We had a little view of the city. The bed was comfortable and everyone was very nice.

Hobo was a boutique hotel I found when booking my trip in Stockholm and I was really excited to stay here based on photos I'd seen online. My overall stay was pretty flawless except my check-in. I arrived around 3:45pm and had to wait over an hour to get a room (check in says 3pm). They did comp me a free breakfast for the inconvenience though, so that was nice. There are little details about this hotel that I loved. For instance, each elevator had a unique design inside, so it was like a game to see which design you'd get (how come most hotels don't do this??). Also, they had a photo booth in the lobby. Inside the room there is a peg board where they swap out things daily that you can use. For instance, there was a Pocket Operator, which is essentially a beat maker. There are also film cameras (both SLRs and Polaroids) you can rent during your stay, which is super fun and cool if you don't already have tour own. As for my room and bed, it was comfy and perfectly sized for my short stay. The bathroom was a bit small but definitely manageable. The breakfast I had was a good spread of breakfast usuals . I think the price to pay is around $10-$11 USD and it would be worth it if you're someone who likes to fuel up at the hotel first thing. Should I find myself in Stockholm again (which I do hope) I would definitely book a stay here again in a heartbeat.

This place is very kooky and hipster. It has fun prints, plants, and retro decor (e.g. old fashioned typewriters and phones). We chose not to eat at their restaurant, as the menu is entirely vegan and vegetarian to fit in with their sustainability theme. I came to Stockholm to indulge in seafood and Swedish meatballs, so this was not for me. Rooms are microscopic, which my husband and I are pretty used to at this point, having spent a lot of time traveling Europe on a budget. However, our room didn't have windows, and this wasn't advertised anywhere! We would have definitely paid a little more money for some natural vitamin D and the ability to wake up in the morning without feeling like disoriented zombies. Since they're all about sustainable living, they only clean your room if you hang a sign on your door. I respect that, but we hung up the sign, and they didn't clean our room. It wasn't a huge deal. We were just annoyed that we had to request clean towels so we could shower. Nonetheless Hobo is a decent budget friendly hotel in a super central location. We were able to walk to all of the attractions in Stockholm.

Pretty funky decor inside a hotel in Stockholm's business district. Excellent fish dishes. Cod was delicious.

Outstanding boutique hotel. Very clean. The staff is very helpful and friendly. Free laundromat inn the basement. Which is great if you are traveling for awhile. We had a room on an upper floor with a view of the square in front of the hotel. Very quiet room. The WiFi is complimentary and very fast. This hotel is easy walking distance to everything orbit the tram.

Hobo Hotel was our home base during our two days in Stockholm. I was a little hesitant at first to book a hotel called "Hobo" but accommodations in Stockholm are expensive and this was by far the best option when we factored in price, location, quality, and style. And by style, I mean this place is hipster heaven. We stayed Saturday - Monday but ended up booking the two nights separately because there was a funky "Popcorn Sundays" promotion which enabled us to get free breakfast for 2, late checkout, 2 movie tickets, and a bag of popcorn for a very reduced price if we stayed on Sundays. This promotion didn't pop up when I looked up Saturday night alone. The rooms are pretty small but they work. I liked that Hobo has free lockers to use if you need to store your bags somewhere before or after checkout. The location was fantastic and we could pretty much walk to everywhere we wanted to go. And the free breakfast that came with our promotion? It was a bountiful buffet that we all enjoyed.

Hobo was trying so hard to be hip and funky they forgot to provide decent service. We stayed in a mid tier room which was clean and well appointed. However the room lacked some basics and the service was poor. The room didn't provide basic amenities such as tissues, or a fridge to store drinks or medicine in. The soaps/shampoos/body-wash were empty on check in. We requested refills but this did not happen. On check in the staff were rude and sassy with my partner, and when asked about local parking and amenities, replied with unhelpful and judgemental comments about driving a car to Stockholm. Overall the experience was very underwhelming. Stockholm was an amazing city though, so we made the most of it. If Hobo spent as much time providing decent service as they do trying to sell their products in the lobby, they might attract return visitors.

My review only concerns the restaurant & not the hotel. The restaurant has a great ambiance & a hipster vibe which you can feel already from outside. I went for lunch & they have dish of the day which was fish then. The presentation was over the top, the vegetables on my dish were flavored somehow really special that was tickling my taste buds & it was served on an out of this world purée. Amazing service, best high chair I've seen so far in Stockholm for babies & a very good bathroom/ changing table. The staff were very attentive even if this was their busy time of the day. Price was very fair considering what you get. I only wish their portions were a bit bigger, I wasn't quite full when I left but it's perfect if you are not used to big portions for lunch.will be back for sure!

Fantastic location for the city-roamer, pleasant service from the awesome staff in all areas of this hotel (cool texting system vs. in room telephones), thoughtful/colorful lounge space & bar, creative use of storage space & design in rooms (I booked 3 Superior rooms & the view of Brunkebergstorg square was worth it). Filling & satisfying Breakfast, easy & quick check-in & out options. Gym-Photo booth-Bicycles on site. Will return, would recommend.

If you understand what you are paying for, Hobo Hotel will definetely not dissappoint you: small rooms, limited (or no) view and a lot of self service. But also: fantastic design (same designer as Volkshotel in Amsterdam), friendly and authentic staff, awesome breakfast, great vibe and good facilities (fitness, laundry, etc.) this place is really a modern version of what a Best Western should be like in the 21st century. Recently had a business related stay here and it was more than worth the effort. Also, the location is fantastic truly.

The hotel, staff, and morning spread were all great! I definitely recommend grabbing a bite before wanderings in that the food is fresh and delicious. The staff was really accommodating whether we needed help with postage, towels, or directions. The room was clean, minimalist, and quiet. The only reason for less than 5 stars was the shower water does kind of leak out on to the bathroom tile. Nothing a few towels didn't catch. Overall would love to return!

Anton the bartender is a talent and the if you like arlo or any high concept design boutique hotel with an awesome staff and lifestyle amenities including bikes and a gym you will really enjoy your stay here. Fresh chia pudding among fresh squeezed juice is offered in the am and the cafe space is large a 2 levels including large work tables. I found it hard to leave locals even love the location there was a sweet baby shower taking place another plus to diversify not only a hipster clientele yet and incredibly international one. Note some rooms with discount rates may not have windows could be worth the 15 upgrade.

The room is literally the size of the bed, and there are no windows in the room. If you're claustrophobic, this is your worst nightmare. Plus, they charge you a 10 euro service fee for room service.

This is an amazing hotel that truly has done well with every aspect of the room and overall experience. I see that a few people booked the small rooms and complained that there are no windows and very small: note that the hotel actually provides a description that mentions all that. Further, the hotel's bar/restaurant is excellent! Our stay came with free breakfast, and that was a delight in and of itself! Other than that, we also went to the bar: definitely one of the best experiences we had in Stockholm! Our bartenders Alice and George were experts at whipping truly delightful drinks. They also had us taste many of Sweden's spirits that we would not normally have known to try. Talking to them was certainly one of the highlights of our stay in Stockholm! Thank you for such a fantastic experience!

This hotel is run by young "adults" which is what makes and ruins the hotel all at the same time. I felt extremely profiled against. My boyfriend and I don't look like cool hipster people and therefore we felt like we were not acknowledge because of it. We went sit at the bar one night next to all the hipsters and fancy businessmen and after 10 minutes the bar tender had walked past us multiple times looking right at us and not serving anyone at some points and still never offered us service. We went elsewhere for drinks. The bikes they have for rent weren't available because the locks were broken which I find pretty funny because I looked at them and they looked fine to me and there is a bike shop across the street. Go get new locks that's so simple to fix but nope bikes weren't available our entire 5 day stay. Our wifi wasn't working in our room at first and we went to the front desk to ask about it and the guy told us "ummm there isn't anything we can do about it." The location is fantastic though. If you have low expectations you might be ok here. But for the price I paid I expected a little more.

Relatively new, construction nearby, run by millenials who may be "authentic" but don't understand hospitality (well to be fair, many of them were very nice but it only takes one with an attitude to ruin it for the rest). No coffee machines available in rooms, nor in lobby, so you need to purchase at breakfast buffet. But if one of the workers is late, there is still no coffee at all available at 6am (or earlier) and no one is even sorry about it. There is only one treadmill in the basement gym so if there is a selfish hipster working out on the treadmill for an hour, you are out of luck. Rooms are very compact and views may be of construction site next door. If you want your room cleaned, you need to leave a sign on door by 11am but that is no guarantee the maid will see it (she didn't on one of the three requested of the five nights we stayed). The Ace chain in the US has a similar vibe but better executed. Oh, and the doors don't click shut automatically so don't be surprised if you don't need to use your key to get back in (at least nothing was missing).
