What guests think

Sommarøy Arctic Hotel Tromsø draws praise for its dramatic seaside setting, easy Northern Lights viewing, and comfortable rooms or cabins, while guests also highlight the excellent sauna facilities and generous breakfasts, with a few notes about remoteness from Tromsø.

Service is mostly friendly and helpful, though a handful of reviewers encountered overworked or inattentive staff. Rooms are often spacious with striking sea views, but some face car parks or lack amenities like kettles, better pillows, or ventilation, and occasional maintenance or Wi-Fi issues appear. Cleanliness is generally solid, with a few reports of dirty bathrooms or windows and limited housekeeping during longer stays. Expect a scenic, quiet escape with standout sauna experiences, plus some small trade-offs in dining variety and room details.

We had a great stay overall. The check-in was the easiest and quickest we have experienced in quite some time. There was free coffee / tea available by the reception all day, a very nice touch in the cold. The sauna in the central building is spacious and convenient. We also had a private sauna in the beach house we stayed in - this was an amazing surprise (should be called out in the room's details!). In terms of location, both Sommaroy island and the hotel are great - to enjoy the scenery and to hunt for the northern lights. The only suggestion we would have is to maybe install dimmer street / outside building lights if possible - I imagine a lot of people visit for the northern lights, which are more difficult to see due to light pollution (especially when external building lights are accidentally left turned on).

The hotel is super well located and from there it’s super easy to follow some hiking trails around the island. The views are absolutely amazing and even the way from tromso to Sommarøy it’s super enjoyable. The sauna is big and you can enjoy getting into the water to refresh and experience the artic temperatures 😉. The breakfast buffet was great, although I would have appreciated more variety for the lunch/dinner menu. We had luck and experience the aurora both nights we stayed in Sommarøy.

What an amazing experience. Unfortunately the weather wasn't kind to us and didn't get to fully experience the island as we wished but prior to booking I was told the bath house was fully booked but when I enquired on arrival it was available! We really enjoyed this experience. Receptionist was lovely and very helpful! Would definitely visit again

Wunderbare 7 Tage in Sommarøy Arctichotel verbracht. Toller Ausgangspunkt für Aktivitäten in der Natur. Sauna war nach einem Tag am Berg super. Freundliches Personal, schöne Lage mit traumhafter Aussicht. Kleine Speisekarte aber sehr gut. Tee, Kaffee, Wasser immer gratis zur Verfügung. Geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Innerhalb der 7 Tage wurde allerdings das Zimmer nicht gereinigt und die Handtücher gewechselt. Vielleicht müsste man das anfordern, keine Ahnung wie das dort üblich ist. Ich habe mir selber geholfen😅 Leider kein Kleiderkasten oder ausreichend Ablagen für Kleidung vorhanden. Auf jedenfall empfehle ich dieses Hotel weiter

We recommend staying just for the view and location. The property is located right on the water, and offered incredible sea views with a beach area right next to the cabin. We even saw the most vibrant northern lights right from our balcony! The kitchen is a bit lacking in terms of essentials and the beds are not the most comfortable… but it has the basics for a comfortable stay, and the views and location more than make up for it. Highly recommend.

Sauna and breakfast included in stay. Waterfront. Not a good location for midnight sun due to the mountain to the north, which was disappointing because I was under the impression it would be good view. Not good ventilation in my room: hot when sun shines on window and no way to cool down and had campfire smoke smell enter room in middle of night briefly. Scalding hot water which is difficult to regulate. Decent bed.

The hospitality felt mediocre. The rooms were worn out.. the food was ok but didn't match the price. Good things were free cancellations on private hot tubs. But they continued to say fully booked when I saw no one using the hot tubs most hours. Without northern lights and during storms, this rental is not entertaining.

Staff support was lacking. We arrived and inquired about the northern lights and were told to download some aurora apps. There were a few and we tried to make sense of them, meanwhile the aurora was going on outside. We arrived on time to see it but staff was so careless about it -- they were not monitoring the aurora for their guests nor did they provide the the name of the Norwegian weather app which shows the aurora forecasts. We got this App from a guest a day later who had seen the aurora that we missed the day before. We were having dinner in the restaurant while it was going on and this should not have happened if staff at the front desk were more caring. The next day there was too much cloud cover and so we left Sommeroy without seeing the aurora.
