The hotel is simple, clean and friendly. The reception is basic but the room was really nice, spacious and spotlessly clean.

Looking to stay in Tromso on a budget, this hotel ticks all the boxes. From reading other reviews I think there are different sized rooms and it may be luck of the draw which one you get, the one we got was perfect for our needs, with a great view of the mountains to the south. The hotel is clean,... More
