Check the fridge the moment you check in. The housekeepers don’t reset it and it might not work. Pipes going through the ceiling makes dripping noise for hours in the middle of the night. I think it’s due to melting snow or rain. Be aware. Otherwise it’s wonderful. Lovely property.

I found the apartment very clean, efficient, well loc as ted to sites, restaurants and a grocery. Everything is done electonically and no one is on site which can be a little challenging. We were not able to enter the lobby after hours and had an early morning departure socould not use the online cab hailing device and had to walk to a hoteltoorder it, a minor inconvenience.

Very cozy mini apartments. Well stocked kitchenette (appliances, plates, pans, etc). Comfy bed. Next door to a large grocery store and centrally located. A laundry room was a plus. Nice gym that we didn’t use- no room for gym shoes in our luggage. Very secure with in-app key access to building and apartment.

Great property…once you’re in. There is no front desk so the whole check-in process is frustrating, having to download apps and follow numerous instructions etc. Room also wasn’t ready on time. Outside of check-in problems the room was really nice and I was lucky enough to have amazing views over the harbour.

Enjoyable Stay

It’s an unmanned property which has its pros and cons. I would have liked to have a coffee machine at the ground floor considering the weather - I appreciate the filter machine in the room but I believe it would make the stay more comfortable to have a few vending machines and a coffee machine in the basement. Room size was adequate and with good views. There is no housekeeping but would have appreciated if towels and linen could have been changed every 3 days instead of every 7 days. Overall, we had an enjoyable stay.

Great location for all things. Easy link to/from airport, shops, restaurants and tourist area. Office is manned occasionally so useful for any issues. Only issue is lack of on site cafe, food options if you arrive late or Sunday when most places are closed.

This place was nice. It was nice to have an apartment style room with a kitchen. I had a few problems though. Neither my app nor the kiosk worked for check in, so I had to go to the office. By the time I had my key card, there were three other groups waiting with the same problem. I was also disappointed that there wasn’t a microwave, but maybe they’re not common in Norway.

Good option for Tromso stay

Interesting fully digital hotel. Staff is minimal, but everything seems to work as described. And digital key through their app actually works. Property is very new, everything is clean and in good shape. Location is good and walkable to everything in Tromso.

This property is a hidden gem in City Center, very close to all the attractions, restaurants, with a large indoor hotel within the Vander property. Staff is very courteous and they go above and beyond to help people out, patiently. Vander also tours, outstanding Wi-Fi access, free luggage room, and convenient stores within a few feet. I strongly recommend this place for stays more than 5 days to a week.

Nice interior and like a cozy house! Quiet and safe place. Bit small for 4 people though (no space to open 4 luggages at one go). Good location, near a supermarket, restaurants and the pier.

Our stay was perfect! A slight hiccup initially with the room not being ready due to cleaning (30 mins after stated check in) but other than that it was awesome. The rooms are cozy and get the job done. There’s a sushi restaurant in the lobby and the office is on the 2nd floor if you need help. Walkability to the shops and meeting points for excursions was very convenient. I would say roughly 10-15 min walk to get to most places you need. There’s also a taxi queue right outside so that’s convenient. Side note…when you make your booking on Expedia, be aware that they will send you an email 14 days out to fully pay for the stay. There is no pay on site. Highly recommend for the price and location compared to other hotels

Our stay was absolutely fantastic! The place was very clean, quiet, and incredibly comfortable—definitely better than a hotel. It’s within easy walking distance of everything, and it made our holiday in Norway one of the best we've ever had. We highly recommend pre-booking your stay and asking for a sea view, as these options aren't available on some booking sites like Expedia, but can be arranged separately. We used the Get Your Guide app to book tours, and it made the trip even more amazing. We experienced whales, orcas, and the northern lights, making this trip hard to beat. To top it off, the room was so comfortable! Highly recommended!
