About Funken Lodge



An Arctic boutique hotel in Longyearbyen, where history lives on



Funken Lodge is our five-star boutique hotel on Svalbard, where history, comfort and exceptional hospitality come together in warm and elegant surroundings.

Originally built in 1947 as the residence and representative building for the managers of Store Norske, the hotel was once the heart of Longyearbyen's social life. Today, many of those stories still live on within its historic walls.

Now thoughtfully transformed into a contemporary boutique hotel, Funken Lodge combines its rich heritage with elegant Scandinavian design, personalised service and a calm atmosphere that invites you to slow down and unwind.

From the moment you arrive, you'll experience a tradition unique to Svalbard. Slippers await at the entrance, a small gesture rooted in the archipelago's mining history that makes the hotel feel more like a home than a hotel.



Experience Funken

A stay at Funken Lodge is about more than a comfortable night's sleep.

Begin your day with a generous breakfast before setting off to explore the Arctic. After a day outdoors, return to the warmth of the fireplace lounge, browse the polar library or unwind in the sauna. As evening falls, guests gather over exceptional food, shared stories and panoramic views of the mountains surrounding Longyearbyen.

At Funktionærmessen Restaurant, seasonal ingredients and Arctic flavours take centre stage, while Funken Bar offers classic cocktails, relaxed conversation and a welcoming atmosphere. In the historic wine cellar, once home to Svalbard's original wine and spirits shop, you can also enjoy exclusive Champagne and wine tastings.



Where history lives on

Funken has always been a place where people come together.

Over the years it has hosted celebrations, conversations after long days in the Arctic and memories shared across generations. The hotel has welcomed everyone from explorers and researchers to royalty and heads of state.

Although much has changed since 1947, the spirit of the building remains the same.

Today, Funken Lodge continues to bring people together, to experience Svalbard, share stories and find a moment of calm after a day in the Arctic.



Rooms & Suites

Funken Lodge offers 88 beautifully appointed rooms and suites, thoughtfully designed in a warm Scandinavian style with comfort and quality at the heart of every stay.

Every room includes a coffee machine, bathrobe, slippers and carefully considered touches that make your stay even more enjoyable.
