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.

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!

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.

Disliked: Amenities
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.
