The best youth hostels Norrland

Opposite the cultural center Kulturmagasinet and a few meters from the water, the Sundsvall City Hotel stands on the corner of two streets. There are a large number of modest rooms with no particular charm. The good thing is the location, close to the city center and yet quiet, with a very affordable budget. After a day of shopping, cultural visits or a late night at the restaurant across the street, you don't have to go too far to rest at home.

Yellow House is certainly the nicest hostel in Kiruna. Located in a small alley, it is not easy to find, but it is worth looking for. In the building on the right, the reception. Go through the door, it is always open. The decoration, as well as the buildings, is from the period, and this is what gives the Yellow House its retro and cosy feel. In the heart of winter, small loupiotes give the house a typically Swedish and fairy-like atmosphere. In the summer, take advantage of the inner courtyard to have a barbecue.

A 15 minute walk from Östersund train station, the hostel is located a little above the town hall, in a large brick building recognizable by its high tower. The hostel was inspired by the Swedish mountains and you will find elements of these landscapes, all in modern comfort. The hostel has free wifi and a shared kitchen. Around the hostel you can also participate in outdoor activities such as skiing and biking.

Managed by the Ice Hotel, the hostel is located directly opposite its big brother. An ideal option for small budgets! Opened in summer 2010, the hostel offers 10 rooms for 3 people (one double bed and the^3rd bunk bed), each with its own shower room and toilet. A large, Swedish farmhouse-style kitchen/living/dining room is available. Laundry and internet. This is a great accommodation option, inexpensive and located in the pleasant surroundings of Jukkasjärvi. A good place to meet other travelers too.

A highly recommended accommodation just a stone's throw from the railway station and Boden town centre. You can sleep in dormitories of 6, separate men and women, or in dormitories of 2 to 4. It is also possible to book single or double rooms. The entire hostel is simply decorated and furnished. The rooms are functional, clean and equipped with the essentials. The common areas are very welcoming, comfortable and bright. In short, the ideal place for small budgets who wish to stay close to the city centre!

This station no longer belongs to the STF network but to the owner of the beautiful Hellsten Hotel in Stockholm. Comfort has been improved and hotel standard rooms have been added to the dormitories and hostel style rooms. Two large Falun redwood buildings planted on the banks of a tumultuous river and a magical vastness... Prices remain affordable, and the place is just as busy. It is a strategic crossing point for any hiker. We stop there gladly, for a night or two, to recharge our batteries, surrounded by nature and nothing else.

A small but friendly hostel, completely renovated 12 rooms and 46 beds in a large house with cream-coloured walls. All rooms have a private shower and toilet.

The breakfast is included, which is rare enough in the youth hostels to be underlined!
