We stayed at Sydspissen because it was the only hotel available on Tromsø without a stupid price tag at the time of our journey, but this turned out to be a bit of good luck. The hotel is a short walk from a nice little beach which is ideal for viewing the Northern Lights in the evening and is right... More

Very good place to stay if you're on a budget. The breakfast was very nice and consisted of Bread, pålæg (toppings, cold meat and such), jam, cheese, egg, yoghurt, fruit, tea, coffee, juice, etc. The tea and coffee is available all day and there's access to a toaster and microwave. The room was clean, beds were comfortable enough and there's... More

First of all, this hotel is more of a convention hotel, so things are pretty bare, but functional. AT least it is clean. Wifi is reachable in the rooms but I guess it is placed closer to the reception so when I got a room that was at the end of the corridor, the signal was pretty low and keep... More

We went to Tromso at a busy times and ended up staying at Sydspissen almost as a last resort. So it was a wonderful surprise to arrive after 40 hours of traveling. The rooms are basic but have everything you need and are spotless - great showers too. Staff were really friendly and helpful and the breakfast was superb. Ask... More

I would endorse all the recent 5 star reviews......this may be a basic hotel in terms of toiletries, towels etc but the Sydspissen more than makes up for that by the friendliness & helpfulness of the staff, and by the quality of the breakfast & the all-day free teas/coffees. The situation out of town is perfect for northern lights viewing,... More

This hotel is great! Cheap, comfy, clean and very friendly staff. Great buffet breakfast and free coffee available all day long. Very comfortable beds and fantastic shower. Coop supermarket just down the road and walk into town about 20 minutes. Bus stop outside the gate. Only problem ... It was very icy!! Even with good grip boots it was difficult... More

Sydspissen must be one of the most underrated hotels in Tromso. The staff are really friendly, the breakfasts are amazing, and there's a supermarket about a minute's walk from the hotel so you can shop on a budget and use the microwave in the hotel. There's also free tea (delicious) and coffee all day. But best of all, we stayed... More

I stayed here for 5 nights mid February 2013, and I highly recommend it to others. This is a fairly basic hotel (like a hostel) but the rooms are clean, warm and the beds are really comfortable which is priceless for me :-). The hotel does not cater for lunch and evening meals (unless you are a large party and... More

Myself and my fiancee' stayed here in feb 2013 and we can't recommend it highly enough. Peaceful and quiet, tea, coffee and other hot drinks available to help yourself 24/7. Very friendly and helpful staff, free wi-fi. But the best bit is the views out to the fjords and the beautiful mountains. The beach is 1 minute walk from the... More
