Multiple options to get to and from the airport. We got in late so we took a taxi was about $40 for a family of 4. There is a shuttle that goes to or near most of the hotels we took that back to the airport it was about $25.
The hotel is convenient to most of the city center. Nothing was more than a few blocks away. Especially if you have tours booked liked we did.
The room was spacious, which was nice since we were there for 4 nights. Great breakfast, lots of options.
Definitely worth staying at if you want to make the most of Tromso!
Hotel was on the whole really nice, breakfast was excellent. The downsides were no tea/coffee making facilities in room which would be nice, room was very hot and when nightclub below is open it can be noisy.
Would recommend hotel as place to stay in Tromso
Stayed as a family with 2 young children for 5 nights, room lovely, breakfast was really nice with lots of options. Good locatiom, everythinh within 5-10min walk. Staff really friendly, easy to get taxis etc.
Relatively expensive hotel with micro rooms- like an interior cabin on a third rate cruise line.
Breakfast was chaos. Too many people in too small a space. People spilled out into the lobby looking for seats. No service at all. Picked over buffet

Good hotel nice people at check-in. Flight was super early and they got us a room a few hours early. Good view too.
Got a pretty great room that was bigger (Family room) and all the amenities were nice. We missed a view of the town, mountains and water- we could only see the interior of hotel. Next time I will definitely ask for a sliver of a view and pay for it. We just were not aware of the layout of this hotel. Breakfast was fantastic and the front desk employees very nice and helpful. Thank you!
