With modern comfort in historic surroundings, Funken Lodge offers a unique Svalbard experience.

We are happy to invite you to our newly renovated hotel, the perfect place to start your Arctic adventure!

The hotel reopened after a major renovation in January 2018, and during your stay it is impossible not to get acquainted with the hotel’s fascinating history. In the lobby you can enjoy the fire place and a large selection of books, and the atmosphere that will make you lower your shoulders after an eventful day outdoor.

The hotel has undergone a major renovation, and new stories are ready to be told. We can offer one of Northern Europe’s most impressive wine cellars, here are some hidden gems for the fine palate.
