“I was intrigued by Svalbard Hotell's shoe-free policy-a small touch that speaks volumes about its cozy, immersive atmosphere. The hotel's balance of Nordic design with international culinary influences, especially at the Polfareren Restaurant, makes it a standout in Longyearbyen; after a day of Arctic exploration, the heated bathroom floors are a welcome luxury. Its central location makes venturing out for a hike or dogsledding adventure effortlessly convenient.”
