Friendly, efficient staff and excellent city-center location convenient to Stockholm Central Station. As this is a desirable luggage storage site serving several companies, be aware that there is often a long single queue to drop off/collect luggage from the narrow subterranean space. Plan for waits of up to 20 minutes to drop-off or collect luggage rather than cutting your timing too close. When collecting my own luggage, I was initially given two different tote bags that were not mine but had apparently been stored on top of my suitcases during the day. I declined those full (and wide open!) tote bags, which I recognized as belonging to two other customers who had been ahead of me in the queue earlier in the day. I hope they got them in the end.

Easy to find and just 5 mins from the central station. For us everything worked as intended. Much more convenient than the tiny expensive boxes at the station, especially if you travel with a backpack or skies.

Quick, easy and friendly

Good location, friendly staff.
- Heather
Great location near Stockton Central Station. Clean shop & friendly employees. The only downside is the shop is down a long flight of stairs. If you have heavy bags or limited mobility this is not very accessible. If you don't mind stairs it is a great option.

It was easy

The business was in a great location, and the staff were very friendly and helpful. We arrived a few minutes before they opened, and they opened the store so we could drop off our luggage.

Luggage storage in and around Gamla Stan
Gamla Stan, which means the old town, is the historic old town district of Stockholm, and plenty of visitors arrive with luggage before their hotel or Airbnb is ready.
The island has no dedicated luggage storage facility, so the closest reliable option is Stockholm Central Station across the water, though the Royal Palace does offer lockers for visitors. There you'll find lockers managed by the station's locker operator in both the Upper and Lower halls, while Arlanda Express operates its own luggage storage in the Arlanda Express Lounge at hourly rates from 60 SEK to 120 SEK depending on size.
The Arlanda Express also gives you a direct 18-minute link to Arlanda Airport, so storing your luggage at the station works whether you're heading into the old town or out to a flight. You won't find any left-luggage office or storage facility within Gamla Stan itself. With Stasher, you can store bags from US$1.49 per bag per day at 6 locations near Gamla Stan.

Arriving and navigating the old town with bags
Gamla Stan T-bana station sits on the red and green lines—routes 13, 14, 17, 18, and 19—putting the old town a short metro ride from most of central Stockholm. An SL single ticket costs 43 SEK and is valid for 75 minutes across the metro, buses, and commuter trains. Most streets here are pedestrian zones with strictly limited motor vehicle access, and the medieval cobblestones are uneven, which makes rolling a suitcase hard work. The waterfront route along Skeppsbron offers a flatter, paved alternative if you're dragging luggage. Lifts are available at all T-bana stations, but it's worth checking the SL app for real-time lift status before you travel.
Sights, bag rules, and visit timing
The Royal Palace provides lockers at its Ticket & Information office in the Outer Courtyard, measuring 59 cm high, 39 cm wide and 51 cm deep, for coats and similar items. Suitcases and large bags are not permitted inside the Royal Palace and must go into those lockers, which are limited in number, so arriving early helps. The Royal Palace is accessible via a 5-minute walk from Gamla Stan T-bana station.
A relaxed walk through the old town takes about 45 minutes, but budget 90 minutes if you plan to enter heritage buildings, and 3 to 4 hours if you're visiting the Royal Palace museums. Note that Riddarholmskyrkan is closed for the 2026 season.
If you prefer a more thorough self-guided walk, plan for 1.5 to 2 hours to cover Gamla Stan. Many travellers find that two hours is not enough time to explore Gamla Stan.
