Really great location, brilliant breakfast that sets you up for the day, the breakfast was from 6-10am, so if you've been out late chasing the lights then you can still have a bit of lay in and get breakfast a bit later. There's a free coffee machine in the comunal area along with some games to pass the time away if needed. Just a 2 min walk from thd red airport bus pickup and drop off point. Roomx were spacious enough for the 2 of us for 4 nights. Yes we would recommend this hotel

Very nice hotel with excellent breakfast. The only issue is that the walls are very thin and you hear your neighbours. Not cool when you are awaken at night because your neighbour is talking on the phone.

The service from start to finish was excellent- we were delayed and arrived 2 hours after our expected arrival. Greeted by friendly warm staff. Nathan was extremely attentive and helpful. He went out of his way to ensure we made the most of our trip. The room and and breakfast was spot on and met our high expectations. Ideally located in central Tromso.
