We spent two nights in the Rica Ishavs Hotel in July as part of a 4 week holiday in Norway and Finland. We had a harbour view room which did have a great view. The only comment I would make about the view was that the cruise ship port is immediately out the front of the hotel so when there... more

The toilet was "unflushed" and the the room stank of urine but he staff had no interest in compensating me for this. They saw it as something normal apparently. !? I also asked for a single room but they still gave me a double room and charged me for that. WTF? Also, those of you who expect aircondition on an... more

Arrived by plane at Tromso airport. Also here in Tromso there is the frequent bus service called "Flybussen" which picks you up at the airport und drops you off beneath the hotel entrance. Its the last stop, so no chance to miss it!. The girl at check-in was nice, I´ve asked for the top floor and she changed my reservation... more

We stayed at this hotel in March 2008 and I thought it was fantastic, the hotel staff where very friendly, the breakfast buffett was amazing. There is a laptop in the reception where you can access the internet free of charge. The roms where spacious and very clean. The bathroom was modern and clean. Everything you want from a hotel.... more

Just enjoyed a totally different break away in Tromso. Hotel was much better than expected with comfortable, warm room with excellent buffet breakfast. Definitely should request a sea view as was breathtaking! Tromso is very expensive and shock to system at price of everything and lack of opportunities to buy alcohol. Would recommend stocking up a bit in duty free... more

The price is rather stiff, and considering the price, the hotel offers what I would expect. The room I got was very nice, about 16 sq meters, nicely and modernly furnished, wooden floor, minibar, wonderful bed, large windows that can be opened. The bathroom was large, due to the fact that it is made also for disabled people. The minus... more

Overall, this was a very nice hotel and we would stay there again. It is actually not that inviting from the outside, but the inside appearance is much nicer and more appealing. Depending on the side, you might get a great view of the water and Cathedral, or another water view, but not as picturesque. However, we have stayed at... more

Very good location near to water, shops, buses and tourist office. Breakfast excellent and as Norway is expensive it presents a good opportunity to eat well and skip lunch. everything from fruit to fried eggs and every sort of hot and cold drink you could imagine. Room clean, well appointed and enormous linked twin bed. Windows that open and room... more

Nice hotel with a great view across the bay! The room were spacious with a huge twinbed and flatscreen-tv. We had a room with a great view at the Ishavs-cathedral. Breakfast was included and although they didnt manage completly to refill everything during the busiest times, it was a nice start of the day. The hotel is right downtown and... more
