Top Tromsø Hotel Reviews

Quality Hotel Grand Tromso

Quality Hotel Grand Tromso

8/10 Good
"Very close to the cruise lines and centre of Tromso, this hotel offers a wonderful breakfast, laundry facilities, good sized rooms and helpful staff. Things to be aware of: There is a bar across the street that has outdoor speaker and pumps out music until 1 or 2am and the windows while doubled glazed do not have acoustic properties so pack earplugs. The bed in the standard room is a double by Australian standards not a queen."
