Generator Stockholm

This is a modern, friendly hostel with lots of space to sit and hang out in the lobby, and a bar with coffee, soft drinks, beer, and wine. Coffee was good! You use a keycard to access both the door to your floor and your room. My 6-bed dorm room was well-organized with enough space. The en-suite bathroom had a shower with great water pressure, although it wasn't easy to clean the floor with the tool provided. Overhead lamps on every bed, with good isolation so you didn't bother other roommates. I liked that my room had multiple mirrors, lots of coat hooks, and a bench to store shoes under and sit on while putting on shoes. About 10 minutes walk to main train station and another 10 minutes to nearest grocery store (7-11 across the street).

Very well situated and close to everything. The staff were fantastic and so friendly! We were there for a birthday and the barman helped us with what the best clubs and bars to go to were and got us onto the guest lists, amazing. The lady working on the later shifts in the reception was also great and so friendly! Free table tennis was good and having a pool table too. The bar was really funky and modern. For the money, you can’t go wrong. Breakfast was great and so was the dinner. We had a family room which although pretty basic, had all the essentials we needed for 3 of us and a private bathroom.

I had an amazing stay at Generator hostel. I came from Copenhagen by Flixbus and it was a convenient 10-minute walk from the bus station to the hostel. My checkin was supposed to be at 2pm but I arrived there at 9 am and the person at the reception was kind enough to let have an early checkin and go up to the bedroom to rest a bit. The location was fantastic, allowing me to walk everywhere in the center. The bedroom bathroom was clean and tidy. It didn’t have a hairdryer but you can borrow one at the reception if you need it. Breakfast is available at the cost of 9 euros, which is a great deal for Stockholm. I love eating where I’m staying so I can explore the city without worrying about breakfast, and this was perfect. I’d say this place is great for all types of travelers—solo, families, groups of friends…

This place was a lifesaver as I'd arrived in Stockholm at midnight and gone to a hotel I had booked (Avanti Apartment Hotel) and immediatly left that palce as it was horrible with bugs on the bed! So I found myself having to find somewhere else to stay while travelling back into the city centre on a night bus at 1am. I walked into Generator shortly after and they had my booking and checked me in seemlessly, bunk already prepared in the room. I was in a 4 bunk room, the room was a decent size and had plenty of space for everyone. Room was clean and all bunks had decent accompanying storage space. Lively bar and common areas downstairs and a great location for exploring the city.

The reception staff working after midnight went above and beyond. My connecting flight from Munich was delayed, so I arrived after 3am. The staff took really great care of me. Also, they recommeded places to see and eat. The midnight reception staff exemplified the culture of humility and gratitude of Sweden while being there for me every step of the way. They helped to arrange transportation to Arlanda at 4am during my last day. These two weeks in Stockholm were the most rewarding of my life. I am forever grateful. tack så mycket.
