The place is cozy and beautifully unique. The breakfast was a standout, especially the fresh Eggs Benedict. Every staff member felt like a friend, always eager to help. The location is perfect, right on the main street, and excursions are super easy to book.

i was forced to book a triple room despite better options available, utterly ridiculous! i would’ve been satisfied with a room upgrade as compensation but clearly, that was too much to ask. almost gave a good review, but just couldn’t.

The two nights spent here while exploring the stunning Adventfjorden were delightful. I particularly loved the breakfast with the delicious Eggs Benedict and how thoughtfully the chef accommodated dietary preferences. The communal areas were perfect for relaxing with a hot drink after adventure-filled days. It was also great that the airport bus had a stop right outside, making our arrival and departure incredibly convenient.

Breakfast's Eggs Benedict was a delightful surprise.

Should you go for it? my answer

Staying at this hotel was fantastic for our family with three kids. The staff was exceptionally friendly, and the communal breakfast was a highlight where we connected with others, making our mornings enjoyable. The access to outdoor activities like snowmobiling was an adventure for everyone!

basecamp is like an old trapper's cabin, cozy and inviting right in the heart of town. the location makes it super easy to walk to great restaurants, pubs, and shops. the breakfast was excellent, especially the freshly made scrambled eggs. also, you can treat yourself to a massage at polar spa, making your visit even better.

would recommend

This place was a cozy retreat after a day out in the freezing weather, with my room featuring a comfy double bed and a sleek bathroom that made me feel right at home. I loved relaxing in the lounge with 24-hour tea and coffee or catching a show in the TV room. The only downside was that I wished there were more charging outlets available. overall, though, it’s a fantastic choice! 😊

Great breakfast variety, cozy lounge, but room was too cold for comfort.
