First Hotel Backpack

"Great Location, my room was a single bed one with no bathroom or shower (it was down the hall separate but always clean and the shower was good). There was a small sink within the room which was nice. TV did not work but I did not need TV…just tried to turn it on to make noise. Fresh coffee milk and tea are complimentary at the main communal living room with cookies. Communal kitchen I did not use but I saw it was well equipped, organized and clean."

Comfort Hotel Xpress Tromso

8/10 Good

"enkelt og greit. hjelpsomt personal og god service"

Scandic Ishavshotel

8/10 Good

"The property is located very close to the water and is within walking distance from the main shopping area. The airport bus stops right next to the hotel entrance which is wonderful not having to drag heavy luggage through he streets to get to the hotel. There are many places to eat and drink around the hotel. Room wise it is not a big room but just enough space for a couple with two luggage. Room amenities is simple and basic but comes with a safe which is helpful. If you spend lots of time outside then the room is fine. The hotel breakfast is good and kept us going till dinner after a heavy breakfast. Remember when checking in to let the reception knows if you want the room clean everyday otherwise when you return after a day out to find your room the same as you left it in the morning."
