ServaneIESEG → Stockholm University · Otoño 2025“The city is great and every street is beautiful. You can do almost the whole city by feet, but transportations are very useful and easy, plus metro station are unique and very artistic. The transport card is a bit expensive nevertheless. But there is also the tramway which is fun, and the ferry. The cost of living is high, like prepare 500€ per month (without the rent). I recommend to try as much as possible to have an accommodation proposed by the university, because rent is very high. The city is very very safe. The weather can be hard, because from November, sunset is early (3PM in December), and it starts to be under 0° in mid-November, so prepare ski and thermic cloths! You will miss the sun but everyone has cozy lights in their rooms! The food is great, especially salmon. You can eat healthy easily, and have plenty of eating sports around the city 7 Eleven, Bröd & Salt, Presbyran, ...). You can try the local fast food Max that is great. There are plenty of activities to do in Stockholm (parks, exhibitions, museums, bars, clubs, shops, ...), I recommend Södermalm which is the best neighbourhood, for restaurants, shops and bars!”

Anne-LaureIESEG → Stockholm university · Otoño 2025“very safe
but very expensive, use the app Mercenat to check some student discount in restaurant or museums,
some museums have also hours when it is open and free
If you want to organize camping or others outdoors activities but you don't have materials check the Fritidsbanken Skärholmen : you can rent stuff for 14 days for free very practical
A lot of nice coffee place, especially close to Odenplan
If you take the monthly SL subscription for public transport you can go to vaxholm by boat (it is in the subscription) and it is very nice ”

AureliaUniversity of Tübingen → University of Stockholm · Otoño 2025“Its nice to live with other students and be connected. The kitchen can get messy and sometimes I am annoyed that it takes me 30 min to get to the city center. They are super slow with repairing stuff (if they do). Overall, its very nice and practical to live in student housing tho ”
