As a first timer on Svalbard, the Coal Miner’s Cabin didn’t disappoint! I love how it is away from the main part of town and the rustic feel to it. It has gorgeous views and super comfortable beds. The staff were friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable.

Just like being a coal miner. Rooms are old and rustic with plumbing visible and well worn furnishings. Breakfast is good. Location is well away from local attractions with very limited local transportation.

We were pleasantly surprised. Spacious rooms, only waited for the bathroom once in the 4 nights we stayed. The staff were very nice and helpful. The common area/bar/restaurant area was very comfortable. Roughly a 2.5 km walk into town. We would definitely stay here again

I didn't mind the 20 minute walk into town, as I was hiking most of the day and the bulk of the shops were closed by the time I finished anyway. Superb breakfast, very helpful staff, free washers and dryers, and a very usable common kitchen facility for those who might want to cook. I would definitely stay there again.

I recommend Coal Miners Cabins!

The staff and Coal Miners Cabins was very friendly and helpful. They always made sure to tell me which food had the ingredient I could've eat. They always smiled and were helpful. The shared bathrooms were kept very clean and stocked with necessary supplies. I felt well cared for during my stay!

Good value for money, friendly staff and had everything you need for a trip to Svalbard. The only thing we didn’t realise when booking was that the bathroom was shared. But the shower and toilet facilities were regularly cleaned and this didn’t cause us any problems. The main city area was also a 40 minute walk away.
