“Very pleasant stay with amazing view over Longyearbyen”
Loved that hotel. Very charming decoration, amazing staff from the reception to the restaurant, and the view from the breakfast / dining room is simply breathtaking. Food in general is very nice! Don’t miss an evening in the restaurant. If you decide to go the upper price segment hotels in Longyearbyen (so not the hostels with shared bathroom) I would always recommend Funkenlodge before the other options in Spotzbergen :)

“Great stay - would love to return one day!”
Friendly and helpful staff, amazing breakfast, great views from the restaurant/breakfast area, decent gym given the location - loved it! Also, the walk into the central area of town is ~15 mins and is a nice walk, so don't be put off by this.

“Best Hotel in Svalbard”
Everything. The beds are very comfortable, house keeping was fantastic. The rooms felt warm and cosy. The slippers you wear around the hotel are a great touch. Breakfast selection also very tasty.
