Where can you find an internet café in Stockholm?

Free computers and Wi-Fi at Stockholm's libraries, and what to bring.

Answered at: Checked at:

Short answer

Stockholm's city libraries have free public computers at every branch except Norra Djurgårdsstadens, and you need a library card and PIN code to use them. All libraries also offer open Wi-Fi, and Visit Stockholm names free Wi-Fi at Arlanda, Stockholm Central Station and many cafés and hotels.

Why

  1. According to Stockholm City Library, computers that are free to use are available in the libraries, and every branch has them except Norra Djurgårdsstadens library.
  2. Stockholm City Library says you need a library card and a PIN code to use a computer, and the card is free; bring ID to register.
  3. Visit Stockholm says all public libraries in Stockholm give you access to free Wi-Fi, and the library itself says all branches have wireless internet.

Details

Copiers, scanners and printers are available at most branches. The main City Library is closed for renovation until early 2028, with a temporary location at Odengatan 59 called Stadsbiblioteket Spelbomskan. The Visit Stockholm Wi-Fi page does not mention internet cafés, so for businesses use the directory internet cafés in Stockholm, and for the libraries themselves see libraries in Stockholm.

Tip

Register for a library card with ID before you need a computer, and for a cheap day out in the city see cheap things to do in Stockholm.

What may differ

The library's card page does not say whether visitors without a Swedish address can register, so check with the library before you plan to rely on a computer there. Wi-Fi at cafés and hotels is meant for guests, according to Visit Stockholm.

Common misconception

Public library Wi-Fi in Stockholm is private and secure.

What actually happens

Stockholm City Library says its wireless network is unencrypted and that all activity is logged.
