Directions
Address:
Pb. 163 Barrack 7 Longyearbyen,
9171,
Longyearbyen,
Svalbard and Jan Mayen Islands
The owner of Gjestehuset 102 is a miner, who started working in 1980 right in Mine 3. He is proudly one of the most experienced miners in town. He spent his first winter in Sverdrupbyen, where Mine 1b is located, and then moved to Nybyen, where Barrack 7 (now Gjestehuset 102) was established for the best qualified mine workers in town.
Arne bought the Barrack in 1999, nowadays considered as a cultural heritage site in Svalbard, and created the possibility to host people.

Hello,
Everything is perfect and in particular the reception of an extremely friendly staff. On the other hand, the state of the kitchen leaves something to be desired! It's greasy and I don't see how the staff could clean it better because it's ancient! Pan

Good Inn, clean and pleasant, only reservation: it lacks soul.
It's more of a hotel than a hostel, bedroom suites in long corridors.
The dining room is cold and the sofa room is still warmer.

I had no wifi. The sheets and the room in general smelled bad, like a hospital. And the bathroom left to be desired because the shower had no support, that is, you showered on the floor and soaked the whole bathroom.
I would not return.

Excellent location. Reasonably clean (although, not sure how wise it is, from a hygiene point of view, to have the shower IN the toilet cubicle :/ ). One regrettable aspect of the hostel was a particular member of staff who seemed to be thoroughly stoned
