Very cosy
Wonderful and cosy comfortable place to stay. We had a 5 night stay and would have been nice to have had our room serviced at least a couple of times but not once?.? Bathroom a little too small, i struggled in the tiny shower cubicle. Beds excellent and super cosy! Breakfast very good.

Ett helt fantastiskt boende som passar bra in i miljön ! Rummen har en interiör med känsla att bo i en hydda/jaktstuga men med samtliga bekvämligheter. Väldigt bra frukostbuffé !

Langhelg i september, tre voksne. Kjempefornøyd!
Vi er et par med voksen datter som valgte dette hotellet for en langhelg på Svalbard. Vi er utrolig fornøyd! Veldig hyggelig betjening, spennende rom og god frokost. Dette var i september, så det var en svært stille og rolig atmosfære på hotellet, noe som passet oss godt. Vi velger definitvt dette hotellet neste gang på Svalbard!

Breakthrough Case!
The pandemic doomed our Wedding Anniversary travel to Svalbard and in fact we never made it. Though we had a “nonrefundable” reservation, we were unable to —reschedule—(they are not the same thing!!!) our plans we had travel insurance. We wanted no reimbursement. We just wanted to set a new date. Our Finnair flights plans changed several times, making our stop on Svalbard not possible. Our disappointment was great. Basecamp, which really does look amazing!!!, would not allow us to reschedule on our original booking. Basecamp offered to send a letter about our not staying in the hotel and so I forwarded that to the travel insurance, which was to no affect.. We were out a thousand dollars and felt there was no recourse in sight. I really only write positive reviews. This planning was just a victim of Covid and even though I was “vaccinated” (travel insurance), I still got sick (charged the full amount).
