    compact room
    expensive charges

    Compact room size can feel cramped!!! Limited dining hours hinder spontaneous meal options!!! The uphill walk from town can be exhausting, especially in winter conditions!!! Expensive extra charges may leave a sour taste!!!

    cozy lodge
    superb food
    breathtaking wilderness
    lack of play area

    We absolutely loved our time at this cozy lodge! We explored the breathtaking Svalbard wilderness, dog sledding on wheels with our kids. The food was superb, especially the breakfast buffet with its unbelievable seafood and pastries!

    In my kids' opinion, a little play area would be great.

    My stay was absolutely delightful! The cozy atmosphere of the room had a perfect reading nook by the window, ideal for unwinding after a day of adventures. The breakfast spread was varied and fresh, featuring local delicacies that fueled my mornings. The welcoming and attentive staff made me feel right at home.

    Limited dining options in-house.

    exceptional service
    striking view
    underwhelming entrees

    good stay but meals didn't impress

    The service throughout the hotel was exceptional and the staff really went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. The view from our room was quite striking, adding a lovely backdrop to our time there. Breakfast served a decent variety, although it lacked a few standout dishes that could've elevated the experience. We enjoyed great drinks and appetizers during dinner, making for a pleasant beginning to our meals.

    Our main entrees were underwhelming and didn't meet our expectations.

    would like to stay longer

    The suite we stayed in had breathtaking views of the glacier, making breakfast a highlight every morning. It was equipped with a coffee machine and luxurious free toiletries. The spa facilities included a sauna for relaxation after adventuring. There's a cozy bar area with local beer, adding to the charm.

    cozy common areas
    delicious breakfast
    spotty wi-fi

    Had an amazing time soaking in the sauna and lounging in the warm, cozy common areas during my stay. The heated bathroom floors were a treat, and I absolutely loved the breakfast buffet with all the delicious options. Only downside was that the Wi-Fi could be a bit spotty at times, but overall, this place is a gem! 😊

    top-notch breakfast
    friendly staff
    great gym
    out of service sauna

    Had an amazing time with my friends! We did a thrilling dog sledding tour and explored Svalbard's stunning nature. The breakfast was top-notch, featuring fresh salmon and granola. The staff was incredibly friendly and the hotel had a great gym. Perfect spot just a short walk from local hotspots.

    Unfortunately, the sauna was out of service during our stay, which was a disappointment.
