How to get there

From the airport, the hotel can easily be reached either by:

TAXI:
- It will cost you about 150-200 kr depending on the time of your arrival

FLYBUSSEN – Airport express bus:
- It will cost 72 kr (104 incl. return) (https://www.flybussen.no/billett/#/reise/til/tromsø-flyplass/tos)
- The bus is easily seen right outside of the terminal and that takes you in town close to the hotel

BUS:
- Take the 42 direction "SENTRUM"
- The bus stop is on “flyplassvegen”, directly on the street below the first parking lot that is in front of the terminal (about 100-150 meters down from the terminal towards the fjord)
- The buses can be expensive if you don't have a ticket before hand (50 kr), but you can download the app to buy your ticket directly and it will be 35 kr (http://www.tromskortet.no/?lang=en_GB)
