So there was a software glitch from Enter Backpack Hotel and we where re-booked into the Enter City Hotel I would have given 5 stars for everything but, this glitch was unexpected. They emailed us to late with the change - we were already travelling. City hotel staff was great. Nice to have a washer and a drier.

Staff was very helpfull. Very good location near the centre. There is a supermarket near the hotel as well. Kitchen was well equipped. It was lovely to have free cookies. Room is basic and a bit small, but it reflects on the price. Water for the showers took a while to warm up, but it wasn’t a big problem. Overall a very good place to stay in Tromsø.

The location is very good, close to the city center, and close to bus stops. In the reception you can find coffee, hot water and cookies all day, that is really great. The kitchen is available and helps a lot! The room is clean, and the staff very friendly.

This was a great hotel for what we needed, somewhere in a great location that was safe and comfortable to sleep in. The two staff members on the evening shift were so lovely, a real benefit to the hotel and couldn’t do enough to help during the stay. The rooms are small but functional, our room had its own bathroom but the communal ones were perfectly clean so I wouldn’t let that stop you. The room we stayed in also backed onto both toilets so if you are a light sleeper bring earplugs. This isn’t a hotel and is more of a hostel vibe so don’t expect luxury but it is good value and in a great location.

Very close to city center and meeting points for all tours. The room is simple and clean and has everything you need. Staff come to empty garbage cans and replace towels daily. The private washroom is on the small side but it’s expected. The staff at the reception are friendly and kind! If you are coming with large luggage be aware that it’s up a small incline.

My first stay in a backpack hotel and it was great, so much friendlier than a stay in a hotel. Room was fine and had a good shower. I hadn’t seen a message on my Expedia account that you have to go to a different location to check in but the people I was travelling with were sent an email to explain that reception closes at 6pm. Good size kitchen and the tea/coffee point in the lounge area was great.

Solo stay

The hotel was fine for being budget. Has a shared kitchen which is nice for cooking your own food. However, I discovered after the second night that the room has bed bugs. This should be completely unacceptable for any hotel. The rest of my trip I’ll be trying to sort this out. The staff are super friendly but that’s about the only positive for this hotel.
