2-Star Hotels in Svalbard, Norway

nice to have buffet breakfast every morning (albeit limited food options). the location is far from city centre, suitable for people with good fitness and don’t mind walking to and from the centre as there’s no public transport basically - polar summer, no problem; polar night, weather may make the walk harder. staff were friendly and helpful. cooking amenities and dining space were adequate and guests could enjoy dinner together after cooking. there’s a polar bear sign at about 50m up the road from the hotel, and the mountain view was great especially covered with snow.

Initially, considering the prices of the Svalbard Islands, we were considering budget accommodation, but the photos we saw in the review were very attractive. I chose this hotel. As a result, this choice was correct. Location: 5 minutes walk to the city center, 10 minutes walk to the sea, clock tower and sake brewery, very convenient location. Landscape: From the large windows of the room, I was able to enjoy the magnificent view of the mountain 々. Comfort of rooms: enough to use alone, central heating is complete in winter 　　　　　　　I was able to spend comfortably without feeling cold. There is also a lamp at the bedside and the brightness is sufficient. 　　　　　　　And WIFI is no problem, fast. Shared bathroom: Very clean and managed, despite sharing with many guests 　　　　　　　　It was always available when toilets and showers were needed. Breakfast: The repertoire was constant, but the bread and baked confectionery were freshly baked and crispy. 　　　Especially the croissant was very delicious and it was exceptional to eat salmon and cheese. Tour: I didn't make a reservation through the hotel, but I was able to participate smoothly because the tour company bus picked me up at the bus stop in front of the hotel. General review: I stayed for a total of 4 nights, but the stay was comfortable, so it was a satisfying stay that I wanted to postpone the flight until the day before departure and extend my stay.

It's a bit far from the city center, but for the price, don't worry about the distance. You'll basically be on a tour every day, and they'll pick you up. I thought the breakfast and rooms were very good; there's heating, and it's big enough for four people. Breakfast includes salmon.
