Gjestehuset 102

Longyearbyen

Gjestehuset 102 offers accommodation in Longyearbyen. Guests at this small hostel can buy snacks and drinks. Explore the town centre which is located about 2.5 km away.

The basic rooms have shared bathrooms facilities and guests have access to a shared kitchen with a fridge on the second floor. Spottles clean, which was the most important for me! Room was really quiet and peaceful, no matter if it was during the day or night. Staff was super kind and helpful! It's a bit of a walk to get to the city but you don't mind the walk when you are visiting a place like this. :)
