Hotel very clean throughout and staff very friendly. Breakfast had a good range of stuff and always had whatever you were in the mood for. Bed really comfy and room perfect. Hotel is located in the centre of the town and a good starting point for any plans you have. The main lobby is also decorated nicely and a good place to have a chill. Would definitely book to go here again.

Very clean and comfortable place. The room was a bit small. Good breakfast. A short walk (about 15 mins from town). The airport shuttle goes from this location too.

Great place to stay! Private room was lovely and the facilities were very good. Only slight downside is the walk into town but if you are doing tours they pick you up from the hostel so it’s not that bad. Would highly recommend staying here!

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. 🙂

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 THB 9,869.08 per night8.9Scored 8.9FabulousRated fabulous· 524 reviewsSituated right in the heart of Longyearbyen, the Vault is perfect to get out and about. The Eastern influenced restaurant on site serves simple tasty food in the evenings which hit the spot on more than one occasion. It may not be as flash as some hotels here (no big public bar for example), but is clean, simple and excellent. Reception serves a range of reasonably priced drinks if needs be and the staff are friendly and helpful. Breakfast buffet provides a good selection of foods and sets you up for your day nicely.
MikeUnited Kingdom - From THB 13,147.21 per night9.2Scored 9.2SuperbRated superb· 260 reviewsThe staff were amazing. We had two bag mishaps (in flight and in airport transfer) and when this happens to you in such a remote location, these are the people you want at your hotel. They went above and beyond and sorted out what was possible to sort out at their end. I cannot praise the staff at Basecamp Explorer any higher. They really were excellent. The interior seems very authentic and it looks very cool and unique. Breakfast was amazing. Free tea / coffee always a plus.

She helped us to understand how the town works, suggested some restaurants and other shops.The kitchen was full of the necessary food and some tasty homemade desserts were prepared for all the guests to share! The hotel also felt like a home and not like a chain hotel, the owner takes very good care of the faculties, it's a nice cozy place to stay and enjoy the city. Highly recommend!EEimaSwitzerland
- From THB 9,678.29 per night8.9Scored 8.9FabulousRated fabulous· 852 reviewsLike many of the buildings in Longyearbyen it is small, quaint in its own way and warm. Ee had a room on the second floor which was small but perfect for our needs. My friend and myself, since we spent most of the time outside. Breakfast was varied but fine. Sausages not much to write home about though. Overall great place. It is a shoeless hotel.
