We absolutely loved this hotel - our favourite in Norway so far. The breakfast is excellent. The staff go above and beyond, and the rooms are very clean. We really enjoyed our 3 night stay here, and would definitely come again.

The rooms are well decorated and spacious. The bed was comfortable. The pull out sofa beds are hideous and whenever someone rolls over in the night the sound of springs keeps you awake. The facilities amount to a lounge with free tea and coffee (and water) which are the bare basics. The staff were pleasant enough but none of our issues were resolved. They couldn’t give us a spare pillow which is a hotel basic. The plug in the bathroom sink didn’t work so we could not fill a sink to wash faces or shave. Again, a basic. The restaurant attached to the hotel serves expensive but basic food. That was cold!

Fantastic stay at Hotel Thin Polar in Tromso. Conveniently located near good restaurants, museums and sites. The hotel staff is very friendly and helpful with extra information about transit and directions around the hotel. The room is efficient, clean, bed comfy. Hotter water in the shower would have been exceptional but adequate as is. The breakfast buffet is amazing!! Full board of every kind of breakfast wanted, both Norwegian and other cultural fare, including a very good array of gluten free food. I highly recommend Hotel Thon Polar.

The room was comfortable. The staff was very nice, except the TV in my room was "on" (grey light)..the remote would not work to turn it off, and I could not access the plug. The receptionist tried to fix it, but couldn't then she called the maintenance who never showed up. I asked about it 3 times, but it was never resolved. In fairness I could have moved to a different room but did not. The white out curtains left big verticle streaks of light. ( a little challenging to sleep in the mignight sun). The buffet breakfast was outstanding!!! wonderful staff! Location is excellent. Very Friendly receptionist staff. Lobby/ salon is comfortable, with free coffee and a great shuffleboard table. I would definitely return to this hotel, but would insist on moving to a different room right away if there were any issues.

The room is on the small side, however Thon group of hotels that boasts to have the best breakfast spread in Norway definitely holds some truth to it. Throughout my many hotels stay in Norway, I found their breakfast to be the best so far. Reception was friendly albeit check-in was a little slow due to only 1 person attending to multiple customers.

Fantastic!

I'm a single woman with a 10 year old son and we had a wonderful time here. The staff were so friendly and helpful. The beds were super comfy, the room was lovely and warm. The quilts were really good quality down and little things like that make all the difference! My son and I loved the breakfast, a great variety to choose from. My son is really fussy so that's a massive compliment. The hotel was impeccably clean and I loved the body lotion in the rooms. The staff made the hotel amazing, it was good without but the friendly staff who couldn't do enough to help, really made our holiday. Thank you all at hotel thon polar. We had an amazing holiday and I hope to come back later in the year!
