We stayed at this hotel for one night before our flight home. The room was spacious, clean, and had a very comfortable bed. The staff were friendly, helpful, and polite, and the breakfast offered a wide variety of delicious options. It was a great choice

Het buffet ontbijt was uitstekend met een zeer uitgebreide keuze.
Het uitzicht over de baai van Tromsø vanaf de kamer was schitterend.
Locatie in het centrum van Tromsø maakt het een prima uitvalsbasis om de stad lopend te gaan verkennen.

forse parkeerkosten.

Znakomity, piękne okolicy i renifery na Kvaloya.
Pros:

Hotel w samym centrum, tuż nad wodą - obok marina. Spokój i cisza od hałasów, tylko mewy słychać :) Przystanek na lotnisko pod samym hotelem, a inne przystanki w okolicy 100-200 metrów. Praktycznie wszędzie można dojść pieszo, co było plusem, jak wracaliśmy z wycieczki kolejką linową, czy wychodziliśmy coś zjeść. Doskonała kuchnia - śniadania dobre, ale serwowany przez całe lato bufet obiadowy znakomity. Wszystko slow cooking i w cenie którą trudno znaleźć gdzieś obok. Widok z okna na marinę i góry. Tromso jest czarujące. Wrócimy zimą.

Cons:

Nie mamy uwag.

A very enjoyable stay in a well-located hotel with beautiful harbour views, comfortable rooms, and an outstanding breakf
Pros:

A lovely hotel in a prime waterfront location with fantastic views over the harbour. The rooms were comfortable, and the breakfast was excellent with a wide selection of high-quality options.

Cons:

The children’s playroom, featuring a TV and ping pong table, was a great idea but unfortunately was not well maintained during our stay. Broken glass and litter had been left behind by other guests, making it less inviting than it could have been.
