Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel is centrally located in Tromso with a cozy and modern room. While the rooms are basic without some amenities, they offer comfortable beds. The service is attentive and helpful, with staff willing to assist guests. The dining experience is varied and satisfying. Overall, the hotel provides a great base for exploring Tromso and offers good value for money.
The hotel offers comfortable rooms with a view over the harbor, but the reception could be more guest-oriented. The service is attentive and friendly, although the atmosphere in the restaurant might be a bit odd with hiphop music playing. The location is excellent for day trips and is near the main streets and pickup points for tours. The dining experience provides a variety of delicious options, including the chance to make your own waffles. The facilities are basic but satisfactory.
My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. The location couldn't have been better, making it super convenient for all my activities. The dining experience was top-notch, offering a fantastic selection. Overall, great value for the money!
The hotel has a standard room with a great view of the northern church from the balcony. The service should have been more helpful, especially with parking permits to avoid extra fees. The location is amazing and convenient for exploring the town. The dining experience offers a good spread though with a limited hot food selection.
The hotel's location is fantastic, within walking distance to main attractions and tour meeting points. The rooms were a bit dark and could have been cleaner. The service was excellent and very accommodating. The dining options were standard but budget-friendly, making it a good choice for those looking to save on dining expenses.
My stay at the Clarion Hotel Aurora was pleasant overall. The rooms were comfortable, although the view was not ideal, facing an office block opposite. I did find some hair in the bathroom, which was a bit of a downside. The location was convenient, close to cultural facilities and restaurants, with the only letdown being the lack of cleanliness in some areas. The dining experience was good, especially the afternoon snacks, and the hotel had useful facilities such as shops and laundry services.
