This is a lovely property. The beds were comfortable, and the living area/kitchen were spacious. Having two bathrooms (one full, one half) was extremely convenient. The kitchen is well-equipped, and the temperature in the lodge was very comfortable. I would definitely stay here again.

Great location. Friendly staff. Rooms comfortable. Breakfast buffet was acceptable. For you to know: they only promote excursions from one company since the hotel is apparently owned by the excursion company. Go to Visit Svalbard website or local office to review all available excursion opportunities.
