Clarion Collection® Hotel With

We were a bit disappointed initially. The first impression you have of a property is the front door ... it is beaten up and dirty which made us lower our expectations of the hotel. If I owned this, I would get the front door repainted ASAP. The reception area is then quite nice and welcoming and the lady who checked us in was lovely. Dinners were surprisingly nice for a hotel without a menu ... they put on the board what is for dinner each night. That is when they remember to change it. Pudding is an extra £4.50. Nice choice of salad. 3pm is waffle time, but this is a bit hit and miss. They could do with a second waffle maker and every day the Guests had to ask numerous times for hot water and coffee to be put out. Breakfast is pretty good with lots of choice. The rooms are tiny and again a bit tired. However the staff were lovely and provided us with some super oversized pillows which made us much more cozy. Generally a great location in the town and the sea view rooms had a great view. Bathroom ok.... shower no bath.

So warm and friendly, lovely rooms, nice foyer to sit the storms out! Happy to store bags for overnight as well we used this when we went to the ice dome overnight. Not sure how secure as people went freely into the room and we weren’t given bag tags, but there was a security camera in the room watching the luggage.

We, two couples, have just got back from a three night trip to Tromso and can highly recommend this hotel. It's right in the heart of everything and within 5 minutes careful walk of all our various tours pick-up points. One couple upgraded to one of the seaview larger attic rooms which was beautiful with the harbour view but the standard rooms are more than comfortable and of a good size. Breakfast was lovely with a good range of foods. Having an evening meal included within the price is a fantastic bonus in a very expensive town. The evening meal does not include a large choice but does vary each night. One of our group is a vegan with some food allergies and was happily catered for with all allergens clearly listed. We were out each day so didn't try the lunchtime waffle options. The staff were all extremely friendly and helpful and spoke perfect English. While you can have your room cleaned every day we were given the environmentally friendly option to not do so and the hotel donated funds to particularly charity. A great option when just staying a few nights. Amazingly we saw the lights from just outside the hotel and from the rooms but this appears to be a rare occurrence.

Great location, good breakfast, mid afternoon snack was free. It appeared that evening meal was free but we were next told that. Room was clean and nice, but book a water facing room. We did not and faced onto a building. We only stayed 2 nights and would go back again.

We are currently staying at the Clarion Collection With. Yes, currently staying as I am writing this a while still a guest. The location right on the harbor gives you beautiful views. It is also conveniently located to many restaurants and walking distance to everything! The staff is so friendly and nice. I remember checking in and Emma was so pleasant and happy to check us in even though we were early. Sylvia from the maid staff was also so helpful. She ran up to make sure the room was ready as the computer had not updated yet. I felt both Emma and Sylvia went over and above to make sure out experience was nothing but the best. In addition to the staff, the hotel offers breakfast, snack, and lite dinner daily. The breakfast is delicious with eggs, oatmeal, and meats. The afternoon waffles were unexpected and a great snack each day. Finally the lite dinner was quite good and excellent value in the price of the hotel. I would recommend getting the water view room. It is so nice to look out the window each morning and in the evening. Added bonus is if the lights are stong enough, you can see the auroa...we did and quickly ran outside to grab pictures. I will manage expectations and say it is not too often you can see from the room, but we were lucky enough to see the magical experience. My picture is from outside the hotel after we saw the aurora in the room. The others are a viee from the room...you have an excellent view of the Arric Cathedral
