4/10 Fair

I was very surprised to see that this hotel actually shares a building and main entrance with a general HOSPITAL. You walk in through the front threshold and there are plenty of sick people coughing and waiting for treatment. It’s a heavy sight to see and then to know that you’re exposed all these sick people as you walk further in to navigate to the hotel desk is an experience. I would not have booked it if I knew that the Hotel is really an annex of the hospital. It’s very creative and I’m sure a great way to generate additional revenue for the hospital, but it was a little deceptive for unsuspecting customers. I would not have booked it had I known this. I also found the food to be very expensive and not very tasty.

Helt ok hotell. Finnes bedre alternativer i sentrum. Denne gangen måtte jeg bo ved sykehuset pga situasjonen.

Room with a view!

Hotel was comfortable and staff were very helpful and friendly. Good connections to everything on Tromso via the bus stop immediately outside, and having the Narvessen in the foyer was useful too! We were on the 12th floor in one of the corner rooms which meant we had two fantastic window views looking south/east over Tromso and to the mountains beyond. Quite a view to wake up to on our first morning!

entspannter Stadturlaub

Das Hotel ist trotz seiner Nähe zum Universitätskrankenhaus ruhig gelegen, die Innenstadt war dank des sehr guten Bussystems gut erreichbar. Vom Zimmer hatten wir einen guten Blick über die Stadt und konnten sogar die Polarlichter bewundern.

SYGEHUS hotel

Man skal være opmærksom på at det et patient hotel, der bogstaveligt ligger inde i hovedbygningen på hospitalet. Det betyder, at det er meget tydeligt mere hospital end hotel. Så hvis man har det skidt med hvide kitler etc., så er det ikke her, man skal bo. Det er ikke oplagt at gå til og fra byen, hvilket betyder at man er afhængig af busserne. Det tog mindst 5 min før der var varmt vand i bruseren. Der var ingen rengøring i de 5 dage vi var der. Kun nye rene håndklæder. Alt i alt ikke en fantastisk oplevelse at bo på dette sted, men heller ikke dårligt. Vi vil dog vælge et andet hotel tættere på byen, hvis vi kommer tilbage til Tromsø.

Although this hotel is based in a huge hospital complex and you will meet the odd out-patient in the lift, you will not notice that the hotel is linked to the hospital. Room clean, modern and functional with TV, mini fridge and small desk where you can work. The twin beds were fairly narrow, but comfortable. Generous sized bathroom. Lifts can be a bit busy at times. Breakfast restaurant roomy and food was good. No table service, so you will have to clean up the table yourself - which seems a bit cheap for a hotel restaurant. The hotel is based some 15 minutes by bus from the city centre. Frequent bus services during the day and early evening, but by late night you'd be hard pushed to find a bus back to the hotel. The shower had some general issues in our room leaving the temperature going awol from freezing cold to steaming hot in seconds, but staff was informed. Great views over the fjord and the mountains.

This is a freaking HOSPITAL HOTEL YOU NEED TO PUT IT ON EXPEDIA AND LET PEOPLE KNOW. Food was terrible too
MILAGROS, 2-night trip

Nice, clean, quiet and modern hotel

The shower was faulty during my three day stay which was a letdown. A general fault with the hot water supply did - apparently -affect all rooms. Nice breakfast restaurant with good selection of foods. No toaster was available, however. Self service - including a cramped and compromised waste sorting station which should have been better planned. One had to wait for person in front to empty their tray and sort their waste. Slightly annoying when you're in a restaurant. Two lifts which at busy morning times was inadequate. It stopped at most floors going down, to the degree that it took ages to get down to exit level - and I missed my planned local bus to town on two occasions. All this said, it was a nice stay. Very clean and relatively quiet. I was woken up by the ambulance helicopter at the middle of the night on one occasion, but that has to be expected when you choose to stay in a hotel at a huge hospital site. 15 minutes by bus to get to the city centre. Frequent buses to and from town - unless you travel very late at night or past midnight.

Man fick vad man betalade för så inget att klaga på. Dvs hotellet ligger i sjukhuset och en bit från centrum. Men i centrum kostar det det dubbla.

For almost $300 per night you don’t even get a shampoo in the shower, no tea kettle or coffee in the room. Simply scandalous
