Longyearbyen University Centre in Svalbard Hotels

"We stayed 3 nights in a family room which has 3 beds. Room is spacious and clean. Reception staff is nice and friendly. Buffet breakfast is included, won't be too many choices but considering this is in arctic circle that resources don't come easy. Surprisingly it is not noisy, as contrary to my expectation that wooden cabin has thin walls. Bus to airport starts from the reception area, so very convenient. "

"Amazing hotel! Beautiful interior, fab restaurant with delicious food. Breakfast was superb. The view from the restaurant at night was wonderful. Great comfy bed and clean large bathroom. "

"Friendly staff. Great Japanese restaurant on site."

"I checked in on Monday, 9 March 2026. The two front desk agents, Therese and Joan were amazing. Both were attentive and made everyone feel welcome. Therese checked me in directly and Joan stopped by to offer conversation as well as a warm welcome. Great start to the stay! The room itself was fine. Clean and we'll attended. The bed wasn't anything spectacular, which you might hope for at this price point. I was out on adventures (snowmobiling, wandering, etc.) so I never had an opportunity to utilize the sauna and jacuzzi. However, I met a couple who had used it and said that it was enjoyable. Breakfast was included and was delicious. I had a burger and drinks at the bar and these were good as well. My only curiosity is they have a beautiful dining room with great views that is only open during breakfast and dinner hours. It closes at 10 am and reopen at 6 pm, so it basically sits empty for 8 hours a day. It would be nice to be able to sit in this space during the day to have a cup of coffee, etc. Seems a bit underutilized. The staff were amazing. Everyone I encountered was attentive and thoughtful. Camila checked me out, as well as offered me a cup of coffee while I wanted for transportation to the airport. The location is stunning as well (walking distance to the high street as well as the sea). Highly recommended. I cannot wait to return!"
