Really lovely hotel, great lounge and common areas, really comfortable. It is a bit of a walk from the heart of town, so not so convenient.

Too far out from town center. The walk to town is fine but the walk back was a bit hard for a senior…

This is supposedly the best hotel in Longyearbyen and it lives up to its reputation. Breakfast was excellent, and the restaurant's food is very good. Hotel responds very promptly to emailed questions. Note: the single rooms are really only large enough for one person. Note also that this is a bit of a walk from the village, church or other attractions, although tour operators are happy to pick up and drop off at Funken.

Nice base for Svalbard activities
Nice hotel, comfortable bed. Lots of nice public space for hanging out - the music, while not loud could still be a bit lower. Very nice breakfast, with a lovely view from the dining area. A short hike from the center - not too far, but something to be aware of. All the tours will pick you up at the hotel though. Would happily stay here again.

Although bit long walk from centre of Longyearbyen, Funken Lodge has superb view. Welcome drink was good touch to start with. Shoes off at entrance. There are comfy slippers for use in the shoe shelf. Room was very cosy and well equipped (bedside 2 USB charging points, Nespresso coffee machine, coffee pods, teabag, toothbrush, sawing set, disposable razor, shaving form, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, something to read) everything I need. Breakfast was great choices (made to order omelettes, cereals, fruit, yogurt, fish, ham, cheese, smoothie, tea, coffee) and very attentive staffs. I was so impressed. I recommend highly this hotel.

Exceptional Service, Cozy Ambiance
The staff was absolutely wonderful, providing top-notch service throughout our visit. One of the highlights was the delightful 5 PM complementary snack, which was simply awesome and added a special touch to our evenings. The cozy ambiance of the Funken Hotel made our stay even more enjoyable. It truly felt like a home away from home. The only suggestion I would make would be to consider updating some of the rooms and showers. Additionally, offering better quality shampoo would be a nice touch.
