One of the standout features of the hotel is its breakfast buffet — regarded as one of the best in the county. For drinks and a more casual vibe, the Roast Bar — located by the water — offers a great view of the harbour, the bridge, and the Arctic Cathedral. It’s a lovely spot to unwind after a day of exploring.

Seafront hotel just in the city centre.

More about Scandic Ishavshotel
Scandic Ishavshotel enjoys a truly unique location right on the quay in the heart of downtown Tromsø. The hotel stretches out over the water of the Tromsø strait — many rooms offer panoramic views of the harbour, the iconic Arctic Cathedral (Ishavskatedralen), and the surrounding fjords and mountains. Its address is Fredrik Langes gate 2, just steps away from the central part of the city and close to public transport.
Because of this central and scenic location, it’s easy to reach by airport bus (airport is ~7 km away) or by local transport. And from the hotel you’re within walking distance of many of Tromsø’s main attractions, shops, restaurants — and even near the pier where cruise/boat excursions (like fjord tours, northern-lights cruises etc.) often depart.
Other practical amenities include free Wi-Fi, family rooms, accessibility options, pet-friendly rooms (if you travel with a dog), and optional services such as babysitting / baby-crib on request.
