Di classe e appropriato
Pros:

Struttura eccezionale, estremamente accogliente e funzionale. Lusso non sfrenato o inappropriato per il contesto, ma con un grande calore e ambiente. Camere essenziali, funzionali e comodissime. Servizio bar eccellente.
La posizione è leggermente decentrata dal centro del villaggio, ci si impiegano 10-12 minuti a piedi. Per noi na ha costituto alcun problema, anzi lo abbiamo apprezzato perché piú riservato.

Cons:

Nulla.

Et hyggelig hotell med god atmosfære på toppen av byen.
Pros:

Frokosten var nydelig. Flott utsikt fra restauranten. God badstu. Flott utsikt fra hotellrommet. Gode rom, gode senger. Bra bad. Hyggelig personell. God beliggenhet. God atmosfære. Vi likte oss skikkelig godt på hotellet.

Cons:

Middagen tirsdag 28.07.2026 var en skuffelse. Vi hadde gledet oss veldig og bestilte kongekrabbe. Den var tørr og seig og overdynget med urter/krydder. Kjente ikke krabbesmak og porsjonen var ikke større enn at det såvidt ble nok på en skive brød. Forrett og dessert var ok, men ikke mer enn det. Et overpriset måltid. Valgte å ikke spise flere middager på hotellet under oppholdet.

Pros:

La Funken Lodge è decisamente uno degli hotel più belli, se non il più bello, delle Svalbard. L'atmosfera è bellissima, magica. Ci sono molti spazi comuni dove leggere e rilassarsi. Lo staff è gentilissimo e aiuta anche nel prenotare escursioni (anche se consiglio di prenotarle prima di arrivare, perchè molte si riempiono alla svelta). Noi abbiamo prenotato in loco l'escursione per vedere i puffin ed è stata veramente eccezionale.

Cons:

Mi è piaciuto tutto. Forse l'unica cosa che potrebbe essere migliorata è il numero di biciclette messe a disposizione. Sono solo 3 e bisogna affrettarsi a prenderle, perchè non c'è un vero e proprio sistema di prenotazione. Noi ci siamo riusciti una mattina presto e andare in giro per Longyearbyen in bicicletta (fra l'altro con pedalata assistita, quindi facilissimo) è un'esperienza che veramente consiglio

I would not stay there again. I thought the hotel could have helped me find medical attention.
Pros:

location

Cons:

I was sick and not hungry. The elevator floor was filthy. Too many stairs in the lobby and on the floor my room was on the pull my luggage on wheels. That was difficult being sick.
