The Stockholm market
Stockholm's archipelago, Gamla Stan and design-led districts make it one of Scandinavia's most in-demand short-term-rental cities, with a busy summer peak. Swedish hosts pay typical OTA commissions on premium bookings. A direct-booking website helps Stockholm hosts capture repeat visitors and keep a larger share of every stay.
Short-term-rental rules
Sweden restricts the subletting of housing, and Stockholm's housing associations often require approval before an apartment can be rented short-term. Rules vary by building, so always verify the current local requirements before listing.
Direct booking in Stockholm, answered
The questions Stockholm hosts ask us most — about rules, OTA fees and switching to direct bookings.
Generally yes for permitted arrangements, but you typically need your housing association's or landlord's approval to sublet, and some leases ban short-term letting. Verify your building's rules before listing.
