I stayed in a 4-person dormitory, and while it was okay for me, the space for suitcases was limited. It could get quite challenging if all guests had large suitcases, so I'd recommend bringing a backpack instead, as you can also use the lockers provided. I was on the top bunk, which meant I had to use a power bank to charge my phone.
The shared kitchen area had a fantastic vibe, and I really enjoyed chatting and socializing with other guests there. For transportation in Svalbard, you can take a bus or taxi between the airport and the city center. Conveniently, a bus stop is right next to the hotel. Although it's a bit outside the main town, the prices are reasonable, and the breakfast is delicious, so I'd definitely recommend it.
I arrived in late May. The weather was mostly cloudy to overcast, with temperatures hovering around zero degrees Celsius. Surprisingly, it didn't feel bitterly cold – the kind of zero where you don't need a heavy down jacket and can still be comfortable in single-layer pants. Compared to the UK (I'd just come from Shetland), the wind wasn't strong either. It was quite pleasant to walk along the beach and stroll through the town. However, the beachfront itself was rather bleak and neglected, a mix of muddy broken rocks, and some patches of un-melted ice. It was incredibly quiet, save for the occasional sound of what I think were wild ducks.
The room was pretty standard. The heating was only so-so, usually cutting out once the room reached 20°C. The shower pressure was also quite weak. Since the accommodation is built entirely from repurposed shipping containers, I could clearly hear every sound and movement from the room above mine (I was on the ground floor).
That said, for this time of year, paying 1300 RMB for a room that included a very decent breakfast, at one of the world's northernmost locations, and enjoying the unique experience of a cigarette under the midnight sun – it was ultimately well worth the price.
The guest rooms are divided into several buildings. Since they were in separate buildings, I wore warm winter clothes when I needed to go to the reception building for meals or other reasons.
As a result, the separate buildings were only occupied by guests and kept quiet. Also, since they were far from the city center, there were no other people around.
Each building had a shared shower, toilet, refrigerator, kitchen, and kettle. There were no TVs, but the Wi-Fi was strong and not an issue.
Breakfast was a buffet, and the quality and quantity of food was more than enough.
Amazing choice if you prefer single rooms over shared dormitory hostels. Medium-sized rooms, with clean bathrooms. The location is good as it is not too far from the town center. The breakfast buffet is delicious.
The hotel restaurant is great, the room is very warm and has a snow view. It is suitable for two people to live in. The hotel breakfast is very good. There is free tea in the lobby. It is very Nordic style. The room has good hot water and a bathtub. Recommended for the Arctic region
A warm and comfortable place, the most kind is that there is a beautiful girl at the front desk who has been working hard to help me in Chinese, which makes me feel relaxed and kind without foreign languages.
Located in Pyramiden, Hotel Pyramiden has a bar. Featuring a 24-hour front desk, this property also provides guests with a restaurant. Guests can have a drink at the snack bar.
The area is popular for cycling, and bike rental is available at the hotel.
This is a camping wooden house and the overall atmosphere is very good. This hotel also includes breakfast, and overall we are very satisfied. The house is large and there is a kitchen, so we are very convenient to cook. Recommended
Breakfast was rich! Choose a lot of these! This hotel is the only 4-star hotel in Svalbard! There are saunas and outdoor baths! It's warm inside the hotel! Also close to the local supermarket! Environmental facilities are really good, love his sauna! It's so comfortable!
I set a bedroom. The result is that there are two rooms. The special surprise. The living room has a large space. You can simply cook some meals. The bathroom is also very spacious. The heating in the room is very good. The point is that the location is very convenient. The supermarket is downstairs!

Amazing
Wonderful atmosphere and very comfortable. Terrific breakfast! Very attentive and hospitable staff who answered all of my questions and happily helped with anything I needed. Extremely comfortable and warm beds. Room was clean and spacious. The atmosphere was so great that even on stormy days, I had a fulfilling time just sitting in the lobby and enjoying the ambience and refreshments. There were only a couple areas for improvement: - the shampoo, conditioner, body soap, and hand soap had a very powerful scent. I have suggested the staff offer unscented options, and they made a note of it. - one of the USB charging ports in the room didn’t work well, and the placement of some outlets were a little inconvenient. Overall, I had a fantastic stay and would definitely cost this hotel again. とても雰囲気が良く、非常に快適でした。朝食も素晴らしかったです。スタッフの皆さんはとても気配りが行き届いていて親切で、私の質問にもすべて丁寧に答えてくださり、必要なことがあれば喜んで対応してくれました。ベッドはとても暖かく、寝心地も抜群でした。客室は清潔で、広さも十分でした。 雰囲気が本当に素晴らしく、嵐の日でさえ、ロビーに座って雰囲気や軽食・ドリンクを楽しむだけで、充実した時間を過ごすことができました。 改善点を挙げるとすれば、ほんの少しだけあります。 ・シャンプー、コンディショナー、ボディソープ、ハンドソープの香りがかなり強かった点です。無香料の選択肢があると良いのではないかとスタッフに提案したところ、メモを取ってくださいました。 ・客室内のUSB充電ポートのうち1つがうまく作動せず、また一部のコンセントの配置がやや使いにくく感じました。 総合的には、とても素晴らしい滞在でした。またぜひこのホテルを利用したいと思います。
This is no doubt one of the best hostels I’ve ever stayed! Clean, quiet, warm, very friendly and helpful staff, interesting people from all over the world, and nice breakfast too!!
the staff was super helpful. the room was spacious and clean; with generous heating to boot! the floor of the bathroom was heated, which i thought was a nice touch. the breakfast was tasty with variety of foods to choose from. i especially enjoyed the scrambled eggs. the location is superb, too. it’s the first drop off and pick up point of the airport shuttle bus. the bed was comfortable and the duvet was clean, crisp, and super warm. one thing i missed was maybe a refrigerator, but you don’t necessarily need one, so not a big deal anyway. overall a pleasant stay!

The house is very nice, warm and recognizable. It is located about a 10-minute walk from the supermarket in the town. The hotel breakfast is also very good.
