Great place to stay!
The online check in process, app to use the key, room and facilities were all great! The hotel is walking distance from the main part of town, walking distance from the bus stop, and a grocery store is right next door. Would highly recommend for a low frills, easy and safe place to stay while exploring Tromso.

Comfortable Hotel
The hotel offers a pristine and inviting atmosphere, with a high level of comfort that makes guests feel right at home. Its prime location is just a stone's throw away from downtown Tromsø, allowing easy access to the vibrant city life and local attractions. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone looking for a pleasant stay in the heart of the city.

I really enjoyed my stay at Skaret by Vander, it was very clean and well provisioned, check in was simple and so was the laundry. I would recommend earplugs as the area can be quite loud in the early morning!

Nice interior and like a cozy house! Quiet and safe place.
Bit small for 4 people though (no space to open 4 luggages at one go). Good location, near a supermarket, restaurants and the pier.

Great location for all things. Easy link to/from airport, shops, restaurants and tourist area.
Office is manned occasionally so useful for any issues.
Only issue is lack of on site cafe, food options if you arrive late or Sunday when most places are closed.

This property is a hidden gem in City Center, very close to all the attractions, restaurants, with a large indoor hotel within the Vander property. Staff is very courteous and they go above and beyond to help people out, patiently. Vander also tours, outstanding Wi-Fi access, free luggage room, and convenient stores within a few feet. I strongly recommend this place for stays more than 5 days to a week.

Good option for Tromso stay
Interesting fully digital hotel. Staff is minimal, but everything seems to work as described. And digital key through their app actually works.
Property is very new, everything is clean and in good shape. Location is good and walkable to everything in Tromso.

Decent stay in the middle of tromso, however there were no front desk and all assistance were only available online, so it takes a while to get help.
