Stunning views but ...
I visit Tromsø regularly but this was my first time at the Ishavshotel. Although I enjoyed my stay there'll not be a repeat. On arrival there were about 15 people waiting to check-in with just one receptionist. Check-in took around 25 minutes. The same evening I was told the restaurant was closed. So no dinner.The following evening the restaurant was open but "fully booked" with lots of empty tables and no discernable sense of urgency. Dinner was a pre-packed sandwich from the shop in reception. A novel experience at breakfast was queueing for the coffee machine, of which there was just the one. A slow one. So there was a line of around 6 people, some making 2 cups. Patience is a virtue, at the Ishavshotel it is a pre-requisite. On the plus side, the views are breathtaking, the staff are delightful, the rooms are reasonably comfortable, the showers are powerful and breakfast is OK and plentiful. The hotel is in the same price class as the 5 star Grand in Oslo. Enough said.

Perfect location in Tromso on harbour front. Bus stop for Airport Express immediately outside. Many tour groups have pick up at hotel or within 5kin walking distance. Most sights easily walkable Buffet breakfast is very generous, wide variety including tasty local food.

4/10 Fair

Could have been amazing but fell short.
I want to start with the good because this hotel really could have been amazing. The reasons for the poor review will become clear later. First, the breakfast... amazing! So much variety, fresh, generally well made and delicious. Honestly I think I gained 1kg from this breakfast alone. The first two days we were at the hotel everything was amazing and well catered. The staff was friendly and helpful. In fact I proposed to my partner on this trip and the bar tender gave us glasses to take up with our bubbly. The problems... first was the bed, which was horrible. Not even remotely comfortable. I'd take my backpacking pad and pillow over that mattress. The big problem... on our second day we got up early for a day trip and upon arrival found out that there was a concert going on in the hotel. No warning, no notification, just "welcome back to a bunch of drunk people in the lobby". We literally had to push our way through a crowd to get to the elevator. We then had to go out for dinner, repeat above. And on getting back, again... drink crowd, no control by the hotel staff. People literally leaning on the no smoking sign at the entrance, sticky floors, generally a horrible environment to come back to. There was no effort to control the crowd or ensure guests could reach the elevator. There was no effort to warn us. The side effect of this was our last morning the hotel was still a mess and the staff seemed over whelmed probably because they had less help after the party.

The breakfast buffet was delicious. Dinner at roast was the best, super convenient to have dinner in the hotel after a long day of exploring. The hotel is super centralized and walkable around the city, even in the cold climates. Highly recommend for couples or families.

We got booked into a view with a gorgeous view of the harbour, could see the Artic Cathedral and the Tromso Bridge. The hotel is probably in the best location in town, our Northern Lights tour picked up from right outside, food, shopping, grocery stores all walkable. But the room itself was a bit odd, I've never been in a hotel where there was no phone to call the front desk! My shower soap dispenser was broken and I put in requests manually to the front desk and again the next morning to housekeeping who I bumped into in the hall in the morning, but it was never replaced. I had to unscrew the pump from the handsoap dispenser and use that.

Average Hotel stay
Hotel is average, it needs refurb. The location is good. There are lots of conferences taking place so you battle to find a place to sit and eat. Be aware check in time is only 16h00. We paid for sea View room but it is only partially sea-view and you look right into everyone else's room. Some staff were really helpful while others were not, so luck of the draw.

The hotel is located in a great area, facing o fjord and in walking distance to restaurants and shops. My room was very spacious and clean. The shower was a little difficult to maneuver and the door didn’t close easily. The breakfast was wonderful and free!
