Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Amenities
The rooms are well decorated and spacious. The bed was comfortable. The pull out sofa beds are hideous and whenever someone rolls over in the night the sound of springs keeps you awake. The facilities amount to a lounge with free tea and coffee (and water) which are the bare basics. The staff were pleasant enough but none of our issues were resolved. They couldn’t give us a spare pillow which is a hotel basic. The plug in the bathroom sink didn’t work so we could not fill a sink to wash faces or shave. Again, a basic. The restaurant attached to the hotel serves expensive but basic food. That was cold!

Fantastic stay at Hotel Thin Polar in Tromso. Conveniently located near good restaurants, museums and sites. The hotel staff is very friendly and helpful with extra information about transit and directions around the hotel. The room is efficient, clean, bed comfy. Hotter water in the shower would have been exceptional but adequate as is. The breakfast buffet is amazing!! Full board of every kind of breakfast wanted, both Norwegian and other cultural fare, including a very good array of gluten free food. I highly recommend Hotel Thon Polar.

The hotel is very clean. The breakfast was great. And the location was perfect, bang in the centre of everything. The rooms are small and we only had a tiny window. As far as prices go in tromso it wasnt too bad. It is definitely worthwhile getting somewhere that has breakfast included as it is so expensive to eat out.

Nice hotel

Good location, walking distance to public transit, restaurants, shopping, grocery stores and museums. Helpful staff. Marvin at reception and Alina in the restaurant at breakfast particularly friendly and welcoming. Good sized room ( paid for a larger one), clean linen and towels, comfortable bed, warm duvet. Bathroom a good size, surprising for our experience in Scandinavia. Lots of storage. Breakfast has a wide variety of foods, including smoked salmon. Bread was really, really good. Lots of fruits. Great stay overall. Tromso is an interesting city.

Didn't accommodate special requests, overalljustok

We ask for a room with a view as it was our daughter's 1st bday. We've got a room on the 2nd floor even though there are 6 which is a shame. There were lots of hair left in the shower floor but otherwise room was clean. It's a bit dated, clearly a cheaper Tromso hotel. We stayed in thor svolvaer before thor Tromso and had much better experience.
