"Considering the cost of living in Svalbard, I was initially looking for a budget accommodation, but the photos I saw in the reviews were very attractive, so I chose this hotel. In the end, this was the right choice.
Location: It is a very convenient location, just a 5-minute walk from the center of town, and within a 10-minute walk from the sea, clock tower, and sake brewery.
Scenery: I was able to enjoy the magnificent mountain views from the large windows in the room.
Room comfort: It was spacious enough for one person, and it was equipped with central heating in the winter, so I was able to stay comfortable without feeling cold. There was a lamp by the pillow, and it was bright enough.
And the WIFI was fast and problem-free.
Shared bathroom: It was very clean, and even though I shared it with many guests, the toilet and shower were always available when I needed them.
Breakfast: The repertoire was consistent, but the bread and baked goods were freshly baked and crispy.
The croissants in particular were delicious, and especially so when eaten with salmon and cheese.
Tour: Although I didn't book through the hotel, the tour company's bus came to pick me up at the bus stop in front of the hotel, so I was able to join smoothly.
Overall: I stayed a total of four nights, and my stay was so comfortable that I wanted to postpone my flight until the day before departure and stay an extra night."
