“Enter Viking Hotel has a truly central location, putting guests within an easy walk of Tromso's attractions; Netflix in the rooms is a smart touch, and I appreciate the complimentary evening waffles and warm drinks. Accommodations can be snug, though, and bathrooms are compact-a reminder to pack light. For solo travelers or those prioritizing location and value, it's a solid choice.”

i stayed for four nights. the staff were consistently lovely. one particular staff member was kind to make waffle batter. they spoke norwegian when i attempted phrases and provided helpful advice on transportation and local shops. the complimentary waffles and hot drinks were a nice touch.
There was no storage in the room. A wardrobe held two coats, but no drawers existed, so we lived out of our suitcase. the bathroom was tiny though. I had to enter it sideways.

the staff at the reception were really helpful with questions.
The lock at my door did not work reliably. It would not lock automatically. furthermore, it was not possible to lock the door from inside due to some mechanical problem.

my room's window was drafty and thin. i could hear street noise all night. plus, the bathroom floor was not heated, it was cold to the touch, even in the middle of the day. i complained, but nothing happened.

I found communication excellent from the reception area. The location includes convenient access to the bus station. It is a short walk to the center, very close to restaurants. The hotel had a quiet atmosphere, and the rooms are very clean.
The room included tiny windows , made the access feel a bit dark.

I noted the complimentary tea and coffee available all day. The location was central, a great help for seeing local attractions. I also found the room to have a very cosy mattress.
The elevator was out of service briefly. This was an inconvenience, but I understand these things happen. It was quickly repaired.

The staff were friendly. They always offered coffee and tea at the entrance, and I liked the waffles. I found the hotel location to be perfect. It was near the meeting point for most of the tours and in the center.
The room lacked storage. I found no drawers, so I had to live out of my suitcase, which took up the only spare space on the floor. The bathroom was very small. You had to walk into it sideways.
