If you are active and passionate about the stunning beauty...
If you are active and passionate about the stunning beauty of the Arctic, Longyearbyen should be on your list. By snowmobile, skis, or even by foot, you will discover extreme landscapes, dramatic snow-covered mountains, and glaciers. In March, the colors of the sunset and twilight hours are the dream of any photographer. Pack your stay with many activities and certainly do not miss out on all the great food that the many restaurants in town have to offer.LLouisFrance - 10Scored 10
Friendly, clean, warm, welcoming and quirky.
Friendly, clean, warm, welcoming and quirky. Excellent home cooked breakfast. Close to town. So quirky it reminded me of Banksy’s Walled Off hotel on the West Bank. Great opportunity to stay in ex-mining accommodation.

This is a very interesting fully functional Cory located in the middle of the Arctic Ocean pretty close to the North Pole. (Closer to the north pile than any other major city in the world.) Anyone can visit Svalbard and stay here as long as you like, regardless of 'nationality' / passport(s). It's great if you have money, but even if you don't you can find inexpensive food at the store (if you look hard) and there's free food left at the hostel, plus they give you free breakfast. 🙂SophieUnited States - 10Scored 10
For somebody from South India the place can only be...
For somebody from South India the place can only be described as otherworldly... like going to a different planet, almost. The weather was in the minus 20 s when i visited last week and it is essential that one prepares for this if visiting in the winter. It is not exactly easy to get around in this island of 2,000 people or so. I came to my hotel in the airport bus and was picked up by the organisers of my various activities like dog sledding etc. I believe there is a taxi but am not sure it can be hailed quickly. Apart from the city centre ( which is 3 streets) other places like the church, harbour etc are a bit of a walk and one has to be prepared for that. It is impossible to walk to these places in winter in the cold and pitch dark. Vegetarian food options were available but limited. Overall, it was a memorable experience, though.

The end of the earth, or so it feels... we arrived for snow on the ground in September and below freezing the whole time. The one big shop, the Co-op, in the town is great, has everything you need, plus the only alcohol shop is part of it selling a big range, you need to show a boarding pass for your flight to buy drink though! Liked the Svalbard brewery by the harbour, their beer is in every bar in town but on a Friday you can book a space in their taproom, really good. Karlsberger pub (in the shopping centre) is worth a go too, lots of mining decor and a huge range of spirits. For unusual food, Mary-Ann's Polarrigg has a restaurant attached with (so I heard) superb food, but the bar there will serve food too, we had the home smoked tasting plate of Minke whale, bearded seal and reindeer which was fascinating. Didn't see any polar bears, which was both good and bad, it's a strange feeling to be walking around and not to be the alpha predator...

We loved the people, we met. Everyone was hospitable.
We loved the people, we met. Everyone was hospitable. And all the guides we had, were really good and dedicated. The Haugen pensjonat was, like everything else, an excellent experience. We felt everybody did their best and loved what they did. We had fish and chips at Kroa. The food was really nice and good for the price, and the room was a local experience made of timber. We went around in Longyearbyen by foot or were driven by our guides. Between the airport and the town is also a bus with reasonable prices. For my next visit, I would wear warmer clothes - a thin layer of merino wool under the gloves and normal clothes.AAnonymous

- From ISK 26,155 per night9.2Scored 9.2SuperbRated superb· 106 reviewsStaff was very good and helpful. they arrange day trip to many attractions. It is close to city center but there is no pick from this dom for any day trip conducted by other tour operators - you need to walk to near by pick up point ( Radisson blu Hotel ) but it is very close ( 3 minutes walk ). Longyearbyen settlement itself is very small so it doesn’t matter where you stay ( everything is at walkable distance). I will stay here again if I come back to Svalbard.
KUNHOOTTYUnited Arab Emirates - From ISK 18,573 per night8.7Scored 8.7FabulousRated fabulous· 934 reviewsIt was clean and quiet (except around plane arrival and departure time). We had a great breakfast every morning. It is a bit far from the centrum (~20 min. walk), but the enviromental is very nice during the walk, and we had a great weather (most of the time), so it was not a problem. And it was the cheapest accomodation in the city, so if that matters, you are at the right place. So we would stay at the same place, if we will come back to Longyearbyen :)BarnabásHungary
- From ISK 20,924 per night9.5Scored 9.5ExceptionalRated exceptional· 528 reviewsSpacious and comfortable room, washroom/WC shared by two rooms only, so that's good and cleanliness is ensured. Well equipped kitchen, lounge to chill out. It feels truly like a home away from home. Walking distance (1km) to town and the airport bus stops just across the road at Funken Lodge. Definitely a gem and i highly recommend this place.

KatherineLuxembourg - From ISK 24,955 per night8.7Scored 8.7FabulousRated fabulous· 1,457 reviewsQuirky hotel with unique, historical artifacts scatttered around. The wintergarden is warm, lush, and delightful, and the main living room is book filled and cozy. Breakfast is included, however, has the same offerings every day so after morning 6, one is pretty food fatigued.
