I highly recommend this place for those who want to enjoy Norway on a budget, but still want to experience exceptional service. The receptionists were always available in case of any question even if you asked them about northern light spots or anything. I really liked their mentality about wanting to make every guest's experience super good as they understood that most of us came to Tromsø to make our dream come true. The complementary cookies, tea, coffee and the waffles during the afternoons were really generous, I have never experienced something like that in any other places (probably it is normal in Norway, but not in many other European countries). The kitchen was very well-equipped, the room was a little small, but still ok for 2 people, and I really liked the initiative of the common fridge and box where we could leave what we couldn't eat during our stay so others can have it for free later, it is both very good because it reduces the amount of wasted food and given the norwegian prices, it is a huge help for budget travellers. I can't say a bad word about them, also the washing machine and drier worked 24/7. I only wish that they keep on with this mentality and brighten every single traveller's stay in Tromsø as they did with ours.

FAQs about hotels in Tromsø

The Gateway to the Arctic

Unique, arty, traditional and lively pretty much sums up the great mix that the island of Tromsø has to offer. The city is home to the unique Arctic Cathedral, an array of pubs, cafés and an energetic street culture.

If you’re planning a day of sightseeing be sure to visit Tromsø Museum, Polar Museum, the University Museum of Tromsø, Mack Brewery, and the Arctic Alpine Botanic Garden.

The city’s main square often holds a variety of markets and its streets are lined with colourful and old-style buildings and houses. Tromsø is one of the best places to view the amazing colours of the Northern Lights.

Nicknamed the ‘Gateway to the Arctic’ due to being a launching point for polar expeditions, Tromsø provides numerous activities such as hiking and kayaking during summer, and skiing and dog-sledding in winter, all in a backdrop of eye-catching scenery.

Tromsø is easily accessible from major cities such as Tallinn, Oslo and Helsinki and Tromsø Airport has direct flights to various European destinations. Check-out Booking.com for a selection apartments and hotels in Tromsø and throughout Norway.

What an amazing place!

What an amazing place! We booked trips including the Sami culture experience, feeding reindeer, boat trip to see the Northern Lights and cross country skiing, all trips were very well organised and so easy to book and find meeting places. It was so easy to get around Tromsø, the buses are super easy to navigate, I would recommend downloading the Svipper app before you travel. Everyone was so friendly. I travelled with my 16 year old daughter and felt so safe the entire trip. The Christmas Market in Tromsø was wonderful with many local foods to try.

December was the perfect time to visit.

December was the perfect time to visit. Christmas decorations added to the beauty of the city, and the snow made it magical. It's a small city with all the sights I wanted to see, and excursion pick up points are between a 10-15 minutes walk from The Dock hotel. A walk across the bridge to the Arctic hotel and on to the cable car took about 40 minutes. The view from the mountain top over the city was spectacular - the wind was blowing quite strongly and made the 'feels like' temperature drop dramatically. It's very cold in the city (between -3 to -13), so thermal clothing and footwear are essential, especially on excursions either at sea or on land.

Tromso scenery is amazing.

Tromso scenery is amazing. We have been in summer and winter. So much to do. We hired a car the first time and drove around the many islands. This time we used public transport which is great. There are many hotels to choose from. Plenty of restaurants, bars, supermarkets and shops. Some tourist things are within walking distance, other things you will need to book a tour.

I found it confusing at airport initially where shuttle bus was and located local buses instead. I was surprised roads and pavement not gritted like UK making walking difficult in places. Kerbs piled with snow make buses hard to get on and off. Cathedrals closed in day so you can't view. I heard cable car currently like a building site so declined that trip. Polaria is good to visit, Troll museum if you like Lord of the Rings and good for kids. Whale watching superb views. Reindeer feeding and lucky to see Northern Lights a must. Easy to use buses.

Tromso in the snow is absolutely beautiful, and with all the shops and houses lit up it looked like something out of a Christmas movie. There are good shops, some great restaurants, and lots of excursions available. If you're there in the winter don't miss the husky sledding and reindeer camp, where you can learn more about the culture of the indigenous Sami people. There are also lots of aurora-hunting trips, whale watching, and cruises around the fjords. One of our favourite places to eat was Egon, in the town centre - lots of variety on the menu, and probably a good place if you have kids with you. The best excursion we had was to a husky camp, where we spent the evening and saw the northern lights (serenaded by howling huskies!), followed by sledding the next day. Norwegians are super friendly and laidback, and I will definitely be going back one day.

Loved Tromso. It was very snowy and cold when we were there.

Loved Tromso. It was very snowy and cold when we were there. Plenty of things to see and do but probably only need 4-5 days in Tromso. The excursions are expensive so be prepared to spend money on tours.

Firstly, Stig was an incredible host. He offered to pick us from the cruise terminal as well as drop us off at the airport. He also prepared us spikes for our shoes to walk in the ice/snow. We truly appreciated the thoughfulness. The location of the accommodation is close to the city centre, walkable to a beautiful coastal spot called Telegrafbukta as well as buses. Accommodation was clean and tidy; it was such a pleasant and comfortable stay for us! BONUS: you can even see the northern lights from the apartment!

The apartment is close to the city centre which is super convenient. The owner was super friendly told us a bit about himself and explained everything really well. I honestly wouldn’t have wanted any other property. It had amazing views and best of all we were lucky enough to see the northern lights perfectly. I had been on two previous tours trying to catch them spending over £400 and in the end I didn’t even need to leave my apartment XD. Highly recommended this place to anyone staying in Tromso.

The guesthouse was beautiful and very clean, with views of snow and the sea right outside the window. The host was incredibly warm and friendly, and even gave us a box of delicious gingerbread cookies. The only downside is that it's a bit far from the city center, though the bus is fairly convenient (except on Sundays when there’s no service). But considering the high cost of hotels in Norway, this was already a great option for us with a limited budget!

Super experience staying at MelisHome Aurora Observatory! John is really flexible, and was so helpful in giving me and my partner lifts to and from here, even with short notice! The place itself has all you need, plus the added bonus of being away from Tromso city and away in the valleys, by the fjord means that you can step out and likely to see the northern lights - we saw them on our first night! A perfect stay, thank you so much John!

Nice hotel at an excellent location. Great views on the harbour and a good spot for viewing northern lights right in front of the door (not too much light from the hotel, which is essential for seeing northern lights). The picture of the Northern lights was made right in front of the hotel on Thursday Feb 27, 2025.
