This is fabulous hotel on the edge of town - the staff were a highlight, from my checkin with Richard to the incredibly warm and helpful Tina and other receptionist from the UK, and really great bar staff Davide, Tito, and Tartour who were genuinely friendly and as interested in the landscape and all Svalbard has to offer. The company is fortunate to have such great staff! The hotel was perfectly cosy and inviting as were its staff! The n. lights can be seen from the back of the hotel - it was perfect.

Lovely hotel in an absolute prime location. The view from my room (top floor annexe) was breathtaking. The room itself was fantastic, simple but with everything you needed. Very clean, and cosy. The lobby was so inviting for a hot drink by the fire after being in the cold. The breakfast each morning was simple but very tasty and plenty of options. All of the staff that you encountered were cheery and friendly, and very helpful. I look forward to returning in the near future.

We stayed here for 6 night and could not have made a better choice. Everything is perfect, the staff has been extremely helpful with all we needed. I truly believe that if you want to stay in Longyearbyen there is no better option than this. The hotel also has a souvenir shop, which also provides winter gloves (same products for cheaper than any shop in town) and a lot of other goodies (including postcards) to remember this unique destination. In the hotel you can also find a pub that is open until 2 AM and a restaurant. However, if you want to try other restaurants, the hotel is walking distance (like 200m) from the mainstreet, as well as from most of the attractions. Totally will be here again!

FAQs about hotels in Longyearbyen

What guests said about Longyearbyen:

    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.

    I liked the variety of shops and restaurant offerings.

    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.

    One of the most magical places on earth. Be it the summer or the dark season, the scenery is absolutely breathtaking. A wide variety of activities offered year around, quite diverse depending on the season.

    Longyearbyen is unlike any other place I've been.

    Longyearbyen is unlike any other place I've been. I went during polar night, and dark season is an interesting experience when neither the Sun or Moon ever rise. Make sure to visit the museum, the Nordover gallery, and the brewery, and stop for coffee in Café Huskies. The cold is surprisingly manageable as long as you wear the right clothing. Make sure you layer up properly, and bring a good pair of gloves and some warm boots – walking is the easiest way to get around.

    Longyearbyen seems to be a magnet for humans who find adventure in loving other humans. Nobody is "From" Longyearbyen. But those who venture there become instant family. Not everyone should even consider visiting. Those who will already know who you are, as you read this. Longyearbyen is not for the faint of heart, nor the shallow of spirit. RD

    For both the natural history as well as lesson on the current situation of how global warming is impacting our planet, this is a perfect town to come and visit. The scenery and the geographical isolation makes it incredibly educational and joy to experience, and the scientific value of this community, including the global seat fault just south of the airport, as another value to a trip here. We particularly enjoyed our hotel, and the friendliness and responsiveness of the staff. The people here are incredibly friendly.

    The hotel is perfectly located right in the centre of town making it very easy to get everywhere. The bus from the airport also stops right outside on its route. The breakfast was great with a wide spread to cater to all, they were also happy to fetch particular foods or drinks for visitors (I noticed) that weren't otherwise available in the general buffet. The room was very comfortable and spacious. It was a great stay and can't wait to go back again!

    This is 10/10 experience! Extremely friendly staff, sparkling clean premises with all necessary (and 'nice-to-have') facilities in the bathroom, kitchen and common areas, convenient check-in/check-out. Way better experience than 4* hotel in the same town. I hope this place will be available during my next stay in Longyearbyen!

    We had an excellent stay at Hotel Mary-Anne in Spitsbergen. The breakfast is outstanding. The rooms are small, but very clean. The numerous bathrooms are also very clean. We would 100% recommend this hotel. It is very conveniently accessible with the airport bus. 🔝
