Longyearbyen Airport Hotels from AU$111 (LYR)

"An excellent hotel. Beautifully decorated, homey and comfortable. The staff were beyond accommodating and friendly. I'd go back in a heartbeat. "

"Our stay was great, except for that one day that we didn't get to use the sauna and jacuzzi because it's maintenance day. Breakfast is sumptuous. Customer service is excellent. Staff is very helpful. The lobby looks like it needs some renovation. Place is very close to restaurants, shops and grocery store, walking distance to the water. My husband even briefly saw the Northern Lights one night. Can't wait to come back."

"We did not visit as tourists, nor did we have the budget for this, but we deeply enjoyed the relatively affordable stay that allowed us to explore the Arctic! Special thanks go out to the wonderful staff who ensured that we had great food, amazing breakfasts, and some wonderful conversations!"

"Svalbard Lodge. A basic 2 bedroom apartment with very good kitchen with oven hot plates and dishwasher. The bench is a bit awkward due very low cupboards There is less than one meter from cupboard to bench. Not good for tall people. A large bathroom with washing machine and bath with shower. The bedrooms are typical Scandinavian very small with just bed or beds. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. Brandon the Filipino handyman was brilliant. A great conversationalist who loved a joke or two. He was excellent at talking and working at the same time. He quickly fixed the problem managing things in a professional way. "
