We of course recommend this hostel to everyone!

Best hostel in Stockholm

I have to admit I had some doubts before staying there because I am used to go to hotels rather than hostels, but it really was a great experience.
Rooms were very clean as well as showers and bathrooms. 
Staff is also very helpful and friendly.
Location is more than great.

Very good experience

I can't praise this place enough! First, it is located in lovely section of Gamla Stan (the Old Town) that you have probably seen in movies. The staff is warm and friendly, and they are very helpful in terms of sightseeing tips. My room was clean with a gorgeous view of a back garden. I also really liked the kitchen, which was roomy and stocked with everything you need. Highly recommended for a lovely time in Stockholm!

Lovely grown-up hostel in the most beautiful part of Stockholm

The place ! The atmosphere! Everything was great !No stress :)
very quiet, even doing on New Year's Eve , super clean , excellent stuff, who shows you everything, and help if you need it . Perfect location ! 
Thank you 🙏🏽

No stress 

I had great experience living in Castanea Old Town Hostel.

The staff is excellent. They are extremely helpful and thoughtful. I arrived late the first day and they sent me an email detailing all the information to finding the hotel and getting into my room and even prepared the sheets and towels in case I need it. 

I met amazing people there during my stay. And the hostel is located in the heart of the old town. So it's very convenient and close to everything.

The hostel is very cozy. The service is amazing. It's more than a hostel so much so that it offers many useful tips (where to visite, restaurants, bars, etc) and create a great environment for people to share and connect.

Great Stay in Castanea Old Town Hostel

I like this place because its clean and quiet --- I did meet people (which was great) but not a party atmosphere where I couldn't sleep! Easy walking to anywhere you would want to go ! Just a great trip!

Great place! Highly recommend!

I booked a total of 5 days at this hostel and my experience was great for a hostel. It is clean, functional, has an elevator but above all, the location was great. It's in the middle of old town Stockholm aka Gamla Stan. The old town is beautiful with his medieval architecture. This hostel only has 4 showers in the entire 57 bed hostel. That wasnt a problem for me though because I always showered at night and it was always open. I would stay here again. I guess my only inconvenience but very minor is that I had to change rooms due to no availability to stay in the same room. I would have to wait a few hours after check in to get setup with my bed sheets, luggage, etc...No big deal though.

Great Location and Value

Location is the best thing about this hostel, smack bang in the middle of Gamla Stan - I consequently walked everywhere during my 3 days in Stockholm. Extremely clean, I took a private room which was small but comfortable, and the staff were helpful with all my needs. Not really a party hostel, but suited my needs as a solo tourist perfectly. Will stay here upon return to Stockholm

Cracker of a location in Old Town

OK, the King of Sweden was in next door, I could see the flag flying, but he didn't invite us in for tea. Well, that's the negative part of this report over!
The rest is really positive. Staying in Gamla Stan (Old Town) near the parliament,  the Royal Palace, the best museum in the world...The Vasa Museum, all the fine dining, all the history, some of the classest shops ever, all on your door step, not to forget the 34,000 beautiful islands, makes this humble hostel truly amazing.
I stayed there yesterday in a separate room with my children and the only down side was the weather was too hot. Well, that will never happen again!
The staff were kind and helpful, the place was clean and well organised.
Location, location, location!

What's it like living next to the King of Sweden in Stockholm?

I stayed at Castanea for four nights and had a fantastic experience. The staff went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable and enjoying my stay. Unlike most hostels that just chuck you your room card and set you off, the lady from reception took me to my room and gave me a tour of the hostel. The hostel itself has a really homely, cosy vibe and is easily the cleanest hostel I have EVER stayed at and with the best bathroom facilities. This hostel is not just one for young people looking to party but would be suitable for anyone of any age including families.
