Pretty Disappointing
Very expensive hotel, and poor value for money. Room was good but expensive for what you get. Breakfast was good quality and excellent choice. However, the hotel is right on the quayside and we had a disturbed nights sleep because a large freighter parked right beside the hotel and kept its generator on all night.
Stay at the Clarion Collection With - just as nice a location (especially if you get a sea view), breakfast and evening meal included at half the price and free waffles in the afternoon plus unlimited free tea and coffee. Very good value for money, sauna and steam room also included and generally very welcoming, generous and comfortable.

Location, location, location
Hotel is good. Great buffet breakfast meaning you can skip lunch! Rooms are functional and clean (although they did forget to clean once). Views from the bar and restaurant are fantastic. Best of all is that the airport bus stop and all trips pick up/drop off from the front door. Definitely recommended.
Traveller's tip on getting the most out of your stay
Tourist Information is just around the corner from the hotel - go there first and book all your trips. Stock up at breakfast to avoid expensive lunches as food in restaurants is costly

Great location, wonderful breakfasts
Hotel has great view from a wonderfully convenient locations. Breakfasts are great and all-you-can-eat. If I can understand any Norwegian, I think they just got awarded "Norway’s Best Breakfast". Eat your fill at breakfast and you can easily skip lunch, saving you a fortune. Disappointed that there are no tea/coffee-making facilities in the rooms of a 4-star hotel, though? Bus to airport stops right outside door. You can walk from here to: Arctic Cathedral, cable-car, south-end of Tromso island.
Traveller's tip on saving a few bucks
There’s a fishmongers about 200m from the hotel. Grab yourself a half-kilo of the best prawns you’ll ever have! Beware the beer prices - 130 NoK for a large beer and a small one.
