Excellent stay in a perfect location to explore Tromso. The room had a beautiful view over the marina and towards the snowy mountains. Despite being cold outside, the room was lovely and warm and the beds were soft and comfortable. Would highly recommend this hotel and hope to visit again one day.

Great location on the water while also in the city center. Breakfast was also good with many choices of food and beverage. Always seemed full with guests which also meant that check in was not until mid to late afternoon as they noted on their site.

Nice view of the harbor from our room and was close to shopping. Hot water ran out when I took a shower before bed and then when my husband took a shower in the morning, the water was hard to control - either too hot or cold.
