Comfortable Hotel
The hotel offers a pristine and inviting atmosphere, with a high level of comfort that makes guests feel right at home. Its prime location is just a stone's throw away from downtown Tromsø, allowing easy access to the vibrant city life and local attractions. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone looking for a pleasant stay in the heart of the city.

Good option for Tromso stay
Interesting fully digital hotel. Staff is minimal, but everything seems to work as described. And digital key through their app actually works.
Property is very new, everything is clean and in good shape. Location is good and walkable to everything in Tromso.

Impersonal
This is a staff-less all-digital hotel. Therefore it is very impersonal and can be frustrating when something digital doesn’t work, like the key system. (Even Lumen Industries has more personal interaction.) Having a kitchen saved us money from the expensive food prices for everything in Tromso.

Nice hotel with 3 days stay
Fantastic hotel. Clean and new. No Human interaction needed, just need to download Vander apps and all went according to what was told.

Enjoyable Stay
It’s an unmanned property which has its pros and cons.
I would have liked to have a coffee machine at the ground floor considering the weather - I appreciate the filter machine in the room but I believe it would make the stay more comfortable to have a few vending machines and a coffee machine in the basement.
Room size was adequate and with good views.
There is no housekeeping but would have appreciated if towels and linen could have been changed every 3 days instead of every 7 days.
Overall, we had an enjoyable stay.

Great property…once you’re in. There is no front desk so the whole check-in process is frustrating, having to download apps and follow numerous instructions etc. Room also wasn’t ready on time.
Outside of check-in problems the room was really nice and I was lucky enough to have amazing views over the harbour.
