"We chose this hotel, considering other hotels in Longyearbyen were quite expensive. We were pleasantly surprised! First, the layout is unique, like a museum showcasing antiques. Second, the shared living room and kitchen are spacious and well-equipped, with dishes disinfected daily. Third, we met many Chinese people, and the conversation was truly enjoyable."

Basecamp Hotel

📍 6J8P+R9W, Hilmar Rekstens vei, Longyearbyen
★★★★ 9.3 (29 reviews)

"My sister and I have just spent eight wonderful days over Christmas at Basecamp and we have a new fondest place! The staff from housekeeping to reception and breakfast team were all so very very lovely, engaging and so helpful. Even providing some home made treats for my sisters birthday. Magical! Breakfast was plentiful and varied. Whilst not providing evening meals might be inconvenient for some, we found it a good opportunity to explore Svalbard Cuisine by touring a different eatery each evening. We stayed in a family room (No.1) and the two bedroom set up was perfect for an older brother sister combo. Very clean bathroom, regularly cleaned. Basic amenities provided and plenty of hot water. If we had one minor moan about the room we might suggest a more comfortable sofa to relax into at the end of the day. The hard pine bench seats were difficult to be comfortable on for any length of time. Centrally located in the city, activities are all at your fingertips. An absolute gem."

Coal Miners’ Cabins ★★
"Very clean and comfortable rooms, with a functional kitchen, ideal for preparing your own meals and a good breakfast that has everything you need to start the day. The hotel is in a peaceful, quiet area about 30 minutes’ walk from the city center, right next to nature. Its location is perfect if you want to step outside at night and enjoy the darkness to see the aurora."

Mary-Ann's Polarrigg ★★
"Considering the cost of living in Svalbard, I was initially looking for a budget accommodation, but the photos I saw in the reviews were very attractive, so I chose this hotel. In the end, this was the right choice. Location: It is a very convenient location, just a 5-minute walk from the center of town, and within a 10-minute walk from the sea, clock tower, and sake brewery. Scenery: I was able to enjoy the magnificent mountain views from the large windows in the room. Room comfort: It was spacious enough for one person, and it was equipped with central heating in the winter, so I was able to stay comfortable without feeling cold. There was a lamp by the pillow, and it was bright enough. And the WIFI was fast and problem-free. Shared bathroom: It was very clean, and even though I shared it with many guests, the toilet and shower were always available when I needed them. Breakfast: The repertoire was consistent, but the bread and baked goods were freshly baked and crispy. The croissants in particular were delicious, and especially so when eaten with salmon and cheese. Tour: Although I didn't book through the hotel, the tour company's bus came to pick me up at the bus stop in front of the hotel, so I was able to join smoothly. Overall: I stayed a total of four nights, and my stay was so comfortable that I wanted to postpone my flight until the day before departure and stay an extra night."

Svalbard Hotell | Lodge ★★★
"We stayed here for two nights before going on an trip with Basecamp Explorer. The apartment had two bedrooms and a good sized living room with a well equipped kitchen. There is a washing machine in the bathroom. Check in was at the Svalbard Hotell just a few metres away. The airport bus stops in front of the hotell, so very easy to find. Our apartment was on the second floor (1st if you are from the UK), up a short flight of stairs. Dishwasher was broken and ful of dirty dishes for the duration of our stay. Apartment was clean, but common areas of the Lodge needed a good clean. A plus, or minus, is that the apartments are directly over the Svalbar pub which stays open late. Did not affect our sleep. Unless you pepare your own breakfast, there are not really any alternatives to breakfast at the Svalbard Hotell. That is is expensive, but excellent. Lodge is in the centre of Longyearbyen and you can easily walk to most of the shops and attractions."
