The hotel offers a very high standard of rooms that are warm, cozy, and extremely comfortable with the biggest pillows I have ever seen. The service provided was excellent, attentive, and very helpful, making my stay delightful. While the location, slightly outside the main village, still offers wonderful views and peace, the dining experience was fabulous with a big choice of high-quality dishes. The hotel facilities were well-maintained and convenient for guests.

7.8/10

My stay at the hotel was pleasant overall. The rooms were comfortable with all the necessary amenities, but they were a bit chilly with no way to adjust the heat, which might be an issue in winter. The service was excellent, although sometimes a bit slow to respond to requests. The location was convenient for walking to town and back, with a nice view of the harbor, but getting back from town could be a challenge. The dining experience was fantastic, offering high-quality meals with the option to pack a lunch for a small fee. However, the hotel is slightly outside the main village, and some facilities could be improved.

Location

The hotel's location is away from the main street, but it's within easy walking distance of the main town center in Longyearbyen. You can enjoy a pleasant walk to town, passing by the cemetery, church, and Cableway Central.

Dining

The dining experience was excellent with a variety of options and local organic products. The staff presented the meals well, and the harbor view added to the ambiance.

Facilities

The hotel offers good facilities, but there is room for improvement in service responsiveness and towel replacement.
