Russkiy Dom

Longyearbyen

All units in the hostel are equipped with a coffee machine. Russkiy Dom provides certain rooms that include city views, and each room includes a shared bathroom with a shower. At the accommodation the rooms come with bed linen and towels. It was the cleanest hostel/ hotel I have ever stayed in. Spotless and modern, excellent kitchen fully equipped. The shower and toilets were separate, which makes a huge difference, also spotlessly clean. Yulya and Sam were outstanding and quickly became "family"

At Coal Miners’ Cabins, guest accommodations are located in annex buildings. Each have access to shared bathrooms, kitchen, laundry facilities and a common living room. All rooms feature a mountain view The staff was excellent! They gave us a bigger room because we were with a child, but they didn't charge for a room upgrade. Rooms are clean, hot in the rooms. The breakfast is very good! We checked out of the hostel at 5 am. All those who flew with us on this flight, the hostel staff made breakfast for us. Although according to the rules breakfast starts at 7 am. Thanks to the staff for the best service! I would also like to say that every evening at 18.00 and 18.30 a bus leaves from the Raddison Hotel to Coal Miners Cabins. This is very convenient, because in the evening when a person is tired, there is an opportunity to get to the hostel for free.
