Character of the House

Hobo is a boutique property, so its character comes from a single house with a personal approach rather than the uniform feel of a large chain. Guests find a setting where design, food and creative events share the same roof, giving the stay a lively and sociable mood. The hotel suits people who enjoy meeting others in a common room as much as they enjoy sleeping well after a busy day in the city.

Location in the City Centre

Brunkebergstorg is a central square in Stockholm, and the hotel sits there at the heart of the city. Visitors can reach the main transport hub on foot, which makes it simple to explore museums, shops and waterside areas without a long journey. Walks along nearby streets make the setting a practical place to begin a stay. Being in the middle of town means evenings out are easy to plan, and mornings start close to the city's busiest streets.

Our full take

Boutique hotel on Brunkebergstorg in central Stockholm, five minutes from T-Centralen.
