Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel has stunning views across the water, offering a great night's sleep, despite the room not being huge. The service was exceptional with special attention to needed rest before an early start at 05:30 for our next journey. The location was fantastic, with convenient USB sockets near the kids' beds. The breakfast buffet was varied and included in the price, offering a range of delicious options. However, the rooms were not the most spacious, and the miso soup in the dining experience was not to my taste.
My stay at the hotel was delightful! The room offered a lovely view of the fjord and mountain fjellheisen, although a bit more storage would have been handy. It was impeccably clean, and the staff were incredibly pleasant and helpful throughout my visit. The service had some hiccups with corporate-like responses initially and an oversight during check-out, but the personal touch and gestures made up for it. The location was superb, providing easy access to various attractions and boasting a mesmerizing view of the Arctic Cathedral. The dining experience was diverse and satisfying, although nothing extraordinary. Overall, a great value for a memorable stay.
The hotel offers clean and comfortable rooms with a Scandic design and free coffee and tea, providing great views. The service is warm and welcoming, including special touches like a prepacked breakfast. Its location is excellent, walking distance to cafes, shops, and tour pickups, making it convenient for exploring Tromso. The dining experience is varied, but there were minor inconveniences with the breakfast service. Overall, a value-for-money choice with fantastic facilities.
My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were very comfortable with a great view over the harbor, and the beds were excellent. The service was awesome, with the staff being very helpful and attentive to our needs. The location was perfect, right in the city center with easy access to everything you could need and near all the meeting points for excursions.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel. The rooms were clean, spacious, and had the best view over to the Arctic Cathedral. The breakfast was fab, and the overall design was slick and stylish. However, the only downside was that the rooms were pretty standard, but still very clean and spacious.
The hotel has a wonderful location within walking distance to restaurants, shopping mall, and supermarket. The rooms offer a harbor view and are tastefully furnished, but they are a bit small for families. The service was friendly and accommodating, with a sweet personal touch upon arrival. The dining experience was exceptional with a generous and varied selection. Overall, a great value for exploring Tromso.
