Very comfortable hotel choice in Longyearbyen
Extremely helpful, pleasant and friendly staff. Happy to book any & all excursions from the front desk and just generally very welcoming. The location is excellent, near to the museum/harbour, but also at the end of the main street, so easy to get anywhere by foot in a few minutes. All excursions use the hotel as a pick up point as well as the airport bus. Attached to the hotel are a Gastropub & a bit more of an upscale restaurant. Both were excellent, depending on what you're looking for. Breakfast was within this restaurant and was wide ranging and very nice. Lastly, to have a Jacuzzi/Sauna on site is a very nice bonus and to sit out in the Jacuzzi watching the sun go down with the mountains in the background is really fantastic
