I've spent 10 days traveling around Norway and this has by far been my favorite property. There is something magical about Svalbard in general, and this property embodies just that. The food is amazing, there is no need to leave the property to eat anywhere else for any meal. The staff's friendliness and attention to detail is impeccable. A special shoutout to "T" at the front desk, she is absolutely amazing.

We stayed Funken Lodge last year. We liked amenities in the room and great breakfast. One year on, the room facilities were bit shabbier (USB plug next of bed didn’t work, less amenities such as hand cream, disposable razor, shoe polish, tooth brush, little shaving cream). Breakfast was still great. Wide variety of choices. However, I ordered Champions and leek omelette, came out Champions and onion. Reception ladies were very friendly and helpful. Just a little bit far to reach centre of town. But if I have few hotel choices, I would choose Funken Lodge.

I had a fantastic stay at this hotel in Longyearbyen! The room was incredibly comfortable and spotless, with breathtaking views of the snowy mountains right outside the window. The heating worked perfectly, keeping the room cozy and warm, which was a huge plus in this Arctic setting. The common areas were inviting and cozy, and the restaurant was undoubtedly the best spot for enjoying the stunning mountain views. The breakfast was delicious, and I highly recommend their food—especially the crab. Whether for lunch or dinner, the crab dishes were the best I’ve had in Longyearbyen! Another highlight was their cocktails—I absolutely loved them! A perfect way to unwind after a day of exploring. If you’re visiting Longyearbyen, this hotel is a must-stay!
