Breakfast was excellent for such a remote place. People were so friendly. Rooms were clean. Bar was nice, the resataurant was glass roof. They have many plants in the restaurant, and is claimed to be the greenest place in Svalbard. The views are good, Location is close to city center, and a walking distance from Radisson Blu where most activities are starting. Also walking distance from Church, Brewery, Museums, Restaurants etc. From Airport there is a shuttle bus and this is the first stop.

Very much enjoyed staying at Funken Lodge. Three points I would like to highlight in particular: Friendliness of each and every team member. They really want you to have a great time! Very cozy and comfortable lounge areas where you can hang out before or after your activities. The breakfast and dinner in the restaurant are exquisite, and the view from the tables is just mind-blowing.

Very conveniently located on the main street of Longyearbyen. Also, the airport bus as well as tour guides stop right in front. We loved to take our shoes off and walk just on socks or in slippers throughout ought the whole hotel. It gave us a homey feeling. In addition, our room was really cozy. We had a great view, it was very quiet and the beds were comfortable. Everything was clean and we had most of the amenities we needed. We enjoyed the bathtub after a long day outdoors. What was also practical is that you needed a code to enter your room instead of a key card which could possibly get lost in this fragile environment of Svalbard. The lobby area is welcoming as one could sit next to the fireplace and enjoy a cup of coffee/tea. The staff were all incredibly friendly and helpful. Especially the hostess at breakfast during our stay welcomed us heartily and was attentive and rounded our feeling to be at home. Thank you so much! The breakfast itself had everything we needed for a great start to the day. Overall, we highly recommend Polfareren and would love to come back again.

Honestly, I had a reservation for accommodation at Coal Miner's Cabins, but they moved my reservation to Radisson Blu Polar Hotel, which turned out to be even better for me. I cannot rate Coal Miner's Cabins, but Radisson Blu Polar Hotel was top-notch, and I was pleased with absolutely everything. I had initially booked a stay at Coal Miner's Cabins, but due to unforeseen circumstances, my reservation was relocated to Radisson Blu Polar Hotel. This change turned out to be a delightful surprise. The Radisson Blu Polar Hotel exceeded my expectations in every way, making my stay in Svalbard an exceptional experience. The service at Radisson Blu Polar Hotel was outstanding. The staff were attentive, friendly, and always willing to assist with any request. Check-in was smooth, and I felt genuinely welcomed. The room I was allocated was spacious, comfortable, and impeccably clean. The attention to detail in the room's design and amenities was truly remarkable. I especially appreciated the beautiful view from my window, which added to the overall enjoyment of my stay. The hotel's dining options were also exceptional. I had the opportunity to savor delicious meals at their restaurant, and the variety of dishes on the menu catered to diverse tastes. The food was not only delectable but also beautifully presented. Furthermore, the location of Radisson Blu Polar Hotel was convenient, with easy access to city center. It made exploring the city hassle-free, and the hotel's concierge service was instrumental in providing valuable local insights and recommendations. Overall, my experience at Radisson Blu Polar Hotel was excellent, and I could not have been happier with the unexpected change in accommodation. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting [destination], as it offers a truly exceptional and enjoyable stay. Thank you to the staff for making my stay memorable.

The accommodation was with snowshoe dogs, but luckily they didn't bark much. The only problem was that no one greeted us, no one was in the accommodation and no one even picked us up or answered our messages. Since it was unlocked, after an hour of waiting in the bitter cold outside, we finally climbed into the cabin and checked in. During the whole time, no one came, nor has anyone contacted us to this day. It was very strange, not even a welcome note, nothing. I have never experienced accommodation like this before.

    Longyearbyen is unique.

    Longyearbyen is unique. It is a small settlement up in the Arctic in a stark but beautiful landscape. It is very different to other places I have visited. We stayed for 4 nights and included a couple of trips on 2 of the 3 full days we spent there. It was a bonus for us that on the third day, 14th August 2025, it happened to be the 100 year anniversary of Norway's sovereignty over Svalbard. The town is very quiet and there are not many bars and restaurants but we were very happy to find the Karlsberger pub and it's sister restaurant opposite. These are 2 establishments which are popular with the local residents and are very lively and friendly with great food and drinks. The staff are very friendly and helpful. It is very easy to walk around Longyearbyen with museums and old mines to visit or you can walk down to the shore and see what wildlife turns up.

    Barentsburg is a charming little town and somewhat off the tourist track: but it is worth spending at least two to three days because it has some very unique features. Hostel Pomor has excellent value for money: the bar/restaurant in Hotel barentsburg is excellent and cosy: the staff is very friendly and helpful

    I liked the variety of shops and restaurant offerings. Everything was in walking distance from each other. Depending upon your interests there seemed to be many different kinds of activities to do. I did the Mine 3 Tour and the Svalbard Husky Dogs on Wheels activity. Both I thought were unique experiences and worthwhile. The impression that I got was that there is even a lot more to do during the winter months. Enjoyed eating nice meals at Mary-Ann’s Polarrig and Radisson Blue’s restaurants.
