Clarion Collection® Hotel Aurora

The parking situation is very tricky. As soon as you have parked your car go to the reception and ask for a parking ticket (150 NOK/d) BEFORE you even think of checking in! Even though it is a HOTEL PARKING it is supervised by a private organisation called EUROPARK - its goal is to fine everybody parking more than 2 minutes. Neither the reception nor the manager is interested in informing you about this fact. You won't be treated as a guest - you are the cow to be milked. Tolerance and hospitality do not exist when it is about parking fees.

I wouldn't choose to stay in Tromso, this was stop number 3 of a 7 destiantion tour of the Northern Cape The hotel itself was fine, the restaurant being the best part! Clarion meals even though they are buffett style are second to none!! Excellent choices for breakfast and evening meals. Remember to ask for a sweet and be even more delighted. Our room was comfortable but the view was of buildings which was quite dissapointing given that the hotel has a harbour side location.

Lovely friendly hotel, rooms very nice and roomy. Lovely powerful shower. We were on the 4th floor.Breakfasts were delicious, plenty of choice, loved the waffles between 3 o’clock and 6 o’clock which you made yourself. Evening meal was provided too, soups were really good. One choice for main, first night lamb stew then roast chicken then cod our last night, we ate out one night.

Place is so convinient. Near harbour and in city center. I was suprised about what all was including in price. Breakfast, afternoon coffee and waffels, also dinner is including. On fifth floor outside there is hottube rooftop terrace with views to harbour. There is also tiny gym and sauna with views. Beds are really comfy. Its aircondition in here. Its so easy to recommend this hotel.

stayed here a few times.. had a 14 day business trip here.. hot tub on the roof and small training room.. pleasant staff.. free evening meal included in the room rate and coffee and cake\waffles for lunch.. hotel is a good standard and kept clean.. can be noisy and hectic at weekends.. Tromsø comes alive at weekends and there is a lot of noise both inside and outside the hotel.. hot tub\sauna\gym had quite a few people under the influence wandering about and being a general pain.. also woke up by drunk people coming home from town and fighting\shouting in the corridors.. there were people we met who were not even staying at the hotel but worked nearby and also some that had friends staying there so were using the facilities.. i am a choice member so got a really nice room with extra space.. book in advance and get a decent rate otherwise its not the cheapest hotel in town.. central location for easy access to the town and great views overlooking the harbour.. limited parking spaces available for a fee.. wifi works well..
