1 Best Hotel in Svalbard, Norway

Longyearbyen’s largest hotel isn't resting on its laurels: a multimillion-kroner renovation updated the lobby with a gorgeous fireplace and added a sauna and outdoor hot tub that makes it the perfect spot to relax after a day exploring the Arctic. Two of the town's best eateries, Restaurant Nansen and Barentz Gastropub, are set in this peak-roofed beauty. The comfortable rooms have mountain or fjord views. As the northernmost outpost of the popular chain, the Radisson Blu is also a popular choice among business travelers.
