Great restaurants, we ate in almost every one in our 8 days there. If you like wild game you are in for a special treat. They also do great vegetarian dishes. Huset is the very best restaurant and a worthwhile splurge. Mary Ann's Polarrig is also very nice, exemplary waiters. Lots of great activities available with knowledgeable guides. We visited mid-November and we were lucky enough to have entire glaciers to ourselves for hikes and snowmobiling and dog-sledding. That was awesome! Everyone was very friendly. The Coop is a fantastic supermarket/general store with a huge selection of affordable souvenir's. Good liquor store! The Svalbard Museum is very interesting and the Galleri Svalbard has an amazing selection of crafts, art and photography. Well worth a visit any time of year. The Global Seed Vault is not open to the public but serves such a great purpose for the world. Very happy to know it exists. SUPPORT AND HELP PROTECT THE ARCTIC, THIS PLACE IS VERY SPECIAL!!!!!
Town limits by the huskeys and up the mountain away from the town were by far the most breathtaking places in Longyearbyen. They provided spectacular views of both the bay and a view of the town from up high. Given we went in winter it was dark but the moon highlighted the mountains in a most dramatic way. And the lights of the town were beautiful from up high. We ate a lot in Kroa, a pub/restaurant. Very popular place, with beautiful local and international cuisine, all reasonably priced. And they're staff there are so friendly and welcoming. Try a glass of Svalbard IPA. Beautifully refreshing! Getting around Longyearbyen was done on foot for us, but hiring a car or snow mobile could've been an option too (driving licence recommended) There's nothing to avoid, explore the area and see the beautiful scenery. The tours are expensive for what they are, but if you're willing to pay you would be shown a side of Svalbard only accessible to the locals or wildlife. But waking around on foot and paying attention to the rules about where to go and not is just as fulfilling and exciting.
Must do's in Winter: - snow scooter trips to see the lights at twilight/ night, the scenery and/or Barentsburg (too light for the northern lights unfortunately) - dog sled rides to experience the "silent" way of travelling - ice cave trip - the 2h sightseeing (by bus) and Svalbard museum was interesting too All worked fine with older kids - however more easily to become cold being passengers on scooter trips... Easy to walk around the centre. Dined at Huset, Svalbar and Fruen - all good - depending on how much you'd like to spend of time and money... We did the above, cold, but lovely weather without much wind, sunny and clear blue sky - though not spotting any polar bears, nor foxes, only raindeers and grouses... If longer stay, or upon our return one day, we'll check out more of the activities offered incl. the mining trips and perhaps boat trips if returning in the summer season...
One of the places you must experience in your lifetime. We circumnavigated Svalbard with the Vavilov, a 10 day expedition. The Arctic is something to behold...full of silece punctuated with a stark beauty emanating from layers of muted colors. Watching pack ice undulate as the ship slowly moved its way forward was like watching a sea of white jello move in super slow motion. Saw polar bears, bearded seals, an artic fox, svalbard reindeers, walruses, beluga whales and many species of arctic seabirds. If you get the chance, do go to Svalbard!
Amazing, extraordinary place to visit with no shortage of thrilling outdoor activities. Great for an outdoors/ nature enthusiast! Fascinating and unique flora, fauna, and geography. It's definitely expensive to visit here, but if you book accommodations with a communal kitchen, you can save on a lot of the food expenses. Longyearbyen is very small and walkable, though there is a great bus to th airport that's easy to use and takes credit cards onboard. If you forget any outdoor necessities, there's a comprehensive sports equipment store, but be prepared to pay dearly so pack wisely. Any excursion outside the city limits requires a guide or tutor own extensive Arctic wilderness experience, w high powered rifle, and knowledge of polar bear safety and applicable laws in Svalbard.
Very interesting town - more to see than I expected! Recommend the polar exploration museum - very well done, quite educational. Check out the bay for wildlife including birds, many right in front of you. Saw a few reindeer downtown - walking the road! I did not get to the dog sledding kennels, but those who did loved the adventure. Stayed here for a day before I left on a cruise around Svalbard, wish I had added another day.
Pyramiden is a can't miss experience -- a ghost town with interesting history and natural beauty at every turn of the voyage and excursion.. The two hour taxi tour with a funny driver is illuminating on many levels and gives the traveler a quick connection to the locals and the landscapes in which they live. The residents are straightforward, smart people who are proud to live here on the edge of the world. Those of us from elsewhere will carry Svalbard within our thoughts and memory banks for a long time to come. Every restaurant I ate at as a single traveler, I was treated cordially by the staffs, and the food was so tasty! The Svalbard Inn has great burgers! The Svalbard Museum had wonderful exhibits and chronological history set up thoughtfully for its visitors. A world-class painter is in town --Olaf Storo, Morten Flygel's jewelry is among the world"s best, Check them out! You'll love their work.
stunning landscape. great experience being in the northern most town. unique settings. great adventurous stuff to do.....dog sledge, snow scooters, cruise to pyramiden, great restaurants, nice people. loved it. Fruen is great to get cafe food. Kroa for burgers and pizza. the svalbard seed vault is a must see for its "idea"
Longyearbyen
Staff was very good and helpful. they arrange day trip to many attractions. It is close to city center but there is no pick from this dom for any day trip conducted by other tour operators - you need to walk to near by pick up point ( Radisson blu Hotel ) but it is very close ( 3 minutes walk ). Longyearbyen settlement itself is very small so it doesn’t matter where you stay ( everything is at walkable distance). I will stay here again if I come back to Svalbard.
Longyearbyen
Affordable place to make your base camp for Svalbard adventures. The staff was AMAZING, if you have the chance to talk to Ruth from Bristol, you will be utterly delighted! I was surprised that even as a hostel they left you nice robes and had house keeping tidy up daily. The common area had a great breakfast and a nice bar (and hot chocolate station!) and was a nice place to chill in the morning or the evening.
Room as shown in photos. Friendly, chatty staff. Hotel/area extremely quiet. Slept well with blackout curtains and blinds in room. Given a lovely corner room on 3rd floor, 2 windows. Great views. Modern room, powerful and modern walk-in shower. Breakfast was lovely, especially the berry smoothie. Would definitely stay again. Thank you Svalbard Hotell for a fanrastic start to our Svalbard adventure!
Top class hotel and excellent accommodation. Was lucky to stay in a Junior Suite and was well worth it. Welcoming staff and the fact you change from boots to slippers makes it feel like home. Should we return to Svalbard the Funken will be our first and only choice. Loved the breakfast too and the Argentinean waitress was so nice. A friend within minutes.
Longyearbyen
Very tidy and cosy guesthouse. It is located in a residential area, so if you wish to experience what life is like on Svalbard it is a much better choice, than staying in one of the hotels on the main street of Longyearbyen. Elena, the host is always there to help and always has a kind word for everyone. Can't wait to stay there again!
Nice room with some mountain view. Simple furniture, clean, good WIFI, good breakfast great location. Friendly reception, possible to book excursions there even last minute. Hotel Restaurant for fine dining. Other choices nearby like Kroa or Svalbard Bar. We liked Svalbard bar for pizzas, burgers, salmon and Svalbard draught beer ...
Our stay was magic at the Base Camp. We experienced a magic moment in this cosy place. The hotel does have a particular atmosphere where you feel "at home". They serve hot chocolate, tea, cookies for free which was not expected and well appreciated. We recommend this place to everyone travelling to Svalbard.
Our stay was brilliant. The hotel had all the facilities we needed, plus a very nice restaurant and a separate pub inside the hotel. The hotel staff was very friendly and helpful in general. We would stay here again if we visit the magical Svalbard again in the future.

Most of the overpriced tours in Svalbard can pick you up from the hotel, and so can the airport shuttle bus. The hostel is clean and reasonably kept, although rooms are small.
