The hotel just a few minutes walk to the city center. But very closed to Polaria bus station that I could walk easily with my suitcase. The staff was very helpful even there was a mistake about my check-in information but I did not have to wait too long for that. The room was clean and warm enough.

The best way to describe this hotel is average in every way. Everything in Tromso is ”central” - it's not a big place so that isn't really a selling point. The rooms are very small (even the ”deluxe” ones) and there are only two elevators for a pretty sizable 8 story hotel so get ready for the stairs. I paid extra to be on the 8th floor because I read the reviews about the nightclub underneath and boy they were right - I could hear thumping well into the night so bring your earplugs (the club appears to only be open Thursday - Saturday so if you're travelling outside of that, I'm sure it's more tolerable to try to sleep). Hindsight being 20/20, I would've paid $30-40 more to stay at one of the better rated hotels.
The breakfast was great, there was absolutely nothing missing and left nothing to be desired. The location right in the city center was also perfect. The bathroom was good, especially the shower was great! The lobby and breakfast room are attractively furnished. We had booked a family room (up to 4 people) for 3 adults. The room was much, much too small for this! There was only one space for suitcases and no storage for packing and unpacking. As the suitcases were very dirty due to the winter weather, it was out of the question to put them on the bed. There were no closets, shelves or anything like that, just a coat rack. There were not enough hooks in the bathroom. There was also no safe. It would be nice if there was a shoe shine machine in the house, absolutely essential in muddy weather. Also, the carpeting in the hallways is very run down.

I just had the most memorable time here celebrating my 50th birthday! We stayed there from 10/26-10/30. we had a seahouse and it was amazing waking up to sea view every day. I went there to see the northern lights (and of course the amazing scenery) It was raining and it started to snow (first time of the season) while we stayed there. The weather wasn't ideal but it doesn't matter, we saw northern lights 3 nights out of the 4 nights we stayed in this hotel. I was worried not being able to see it because during the day it was snowing and raining, but as soon as the sky's cleared, even for just 30 minutes, northern lights was there. It was pretty incredible. We will be back for sure!! The location was unbeatable and the cabin was great! We just loved everything about it!
SSatanikFor a solo Traveller it’s a great stay, and particularly if you are travelling during the peak season.
The owners are the dearest people you’ll ever come across.
Bonus: You can book your Northern Lights chase with them.
Clean. Safe, location.
Has a great view from the mountains
Travel to city center is easy with good bus connections.
You might just want to make a note, if you being dropped late night during your chase at the city center, taxi or uber is the only option back (but easily available)
Over all stay as a solo traveller it’s a 10 on 10!
