Comfort Hotel Xpress Tromso
Centrally located in the middle of Tromso its ideal for a single night but rooms are really really small and our room was unbelievably hot and stuffy and we couldn't turn the heating down.

Arctic City Hotel
Reception desk on arrival not very welcoming or friendly, just did the necessary. Bathroom floor space like a postage stamp, literally width of toilet. Never seen such a tiny bathroom. Breakfast was just ok but could have more on offer, quite limited. Location amazing, very clean, comfy beds.

Clarion Hotel The Edge
Great stay ideal location next to bus terminal, breakfast included was a bonus, hotel was having some renovations so the sky bar was closed, room was ok not much storage space and no bedside table, great shower and good views of the fjord

Santa Claus Holiday Village
Santa Claus Village was the perfect mix between nostalgic yet not overwhelming Christmas spirit. . Everything from the accommodations to the food was top notch. Everything was in walking distance and Uber/cabs were easily accessible. Friendly staff, clean facilities, overall great experience!
