Enter Viking scores well on two facts. Visit Tromsø lists breakfast as included and some rooms with kitchen facilities, which puts it level with Thon Polar on 43.
It’s fourth only because Polar is nearer Prostneset. Our pin puts Enter Viking about 350 m away, placed from the street address.
Treat it with care. Every fact here comes from Visit Tromsø’s listing, not the hotel, and check-in times aren’t published. Confirm breakfast before you book.

- Breakfast in the rate at a three-star

Which quay
ProstnesetMeasured to Prostneset, the city-centre quays where Hurtigruten’s North Cape Line and the coastal ships board, Enter Viking is about 350 m in a straight line. Ships over 230 m are sent to Breivika instead, per Seatrade, about 3.5 km away by our rough map pin. Your documents name the quay; the Tromsø cruise guide has the rest.
