Castles in Svalbard

"Loved the staff and the Lobby was nice/fun/clean - rooms were too basic for us....but if you are used to a Hostel it is great. Also, free washer/dryers"

"Fantastic, quirky, friendly! The meal at the restaurant was the best I had in Longyearbyen and also in recent memory (try the whale steak!). Wonderful breakfast spread, comfy waiting area / common room. Highly recommendable. "

"absolutely first rate hotel and service, One of the best hotels I’ve ever stayed in. A bit pricey, but quality was unmatched. Perfect location, Far enough outside of town to avoid the masses of tourists, but close enough to walk within 10 minutes. Restaurant/food was amazing, but menu was a bit short."

"Great hotel, centrally located in Longyearbyen. Fabulous views from the restaurant, as well as the sauna and hot tub."

"Stayed three nights. Everything worked. Had a room facing the back - quiet. Cozy (small) lobby sitting area, coffee/tea available all day. The breakfast was delicious and a very wide variety."

"Our room was so comfortable. We loved having a bedroom each and the room was bright and cheerful. The staff helped us with luggage and also with arranging tours."

"I love the interior decorations in the field of the overall experience. Great staff."

"I quite like The Vault’s relaxing casual style. Interior of the room is simple but modern twist. Once you used it, feel like home. I like reception area’s free tea and coffee self service. We went out then came back hotel and bit rest at ground floor sofa, then went back shopping again (shopping area is just opposite side of road). We requested same room as our last year’s stay. They gave us that room was very appreciated. The breakfast was reasonable spreads. Centre of Longyearbyen town, very handy for shopping and sightseeing. "

"Nice option of anaffordable accommodation "
