Skyview
A great view of the city, after an overly long presentation about a stadium. It's quite far out of town and I would advise using the Metro to get there. It climbs up and then goes back down the same side i,e. it doesn't go all the way around. Overall, it took about 20 minutes and cost 150sk (~£14)(no student discount).
Icebar
I didn't actually go to this because I had already been to a similar one in Amsterdam but it was still in my research so thought it might be of interest. 199sk (~£18).

Stortorget in Gamla Stan
The pretty houses in Old Town, exactly what you expect to see as a tourist in Stockholm.

Nobel Prize Museum
This museum was smaller than I expected but I very much enjoyed it. There is also a student discount. Definitely worth it for the free tour.
Abba the Museum
Although I'm not a fan of Abba, I still visited the museum. When in Rome? I found it very fully of overly pushy Abba fans and walked around it very quickly. There were karaoke booths where you could belt out your favourite tunes but all passers-by would hear you so maybe only for the confident Abba lovers? It was 250sk (~£22) and I was surprised that it offered a student discount.
The Metro
Regarded as the longest art museum in the world, the metro of Stockholm is definitely one to visit if you're interested in that kind of thing. For me, an avid gamer, I especially wanted to visit Thorildsplan Station where there is a retro 8 bit artwork. I was also interested in Solna Centrum Station with its fiery red ceiling.
Gröna Lund
We also visited a theme park. I would recommend taking the ferry over. It is included in the public transport ticket and makes for a great view!
