Coal Miners Cabins

Perfect. Located at the end of the Sarcophagus where adventure begins. Reception building has great breakfast including 2 types of salmon, eggs, bacon...all the stuff. Room was clean and bathroom well located. Tour was late in checkout day and they were so nice, let me use the room till 17:00 no extra charge. Definitely coming back to CMC my home in Svalbard !

The accommodation is styled as a hostel and in this category the Coal miners cottages ticks a lot of boxes. The two bed sleeping areas are very basic but adequate with sufficient communal bathrooms to avoid bottlenecks. There are also washing machines available and small lounge areas where groups can relax together if they wish. However if you expect air conditioning or room service this is not the place for you. On a serious note although there is a bar there is no catering facility either at or within easy reach of the Coal Miners cottages so you have to eat in town or bring foodstuffs back for an evening meal. It is also worth noting that CCs are approximately 3k from the town downhill going there but uphill coming back! Of course you can order a taxi but this is an additional expense which you would avoid by staying somewhere more central.

Great place!

it is querqui friendli quiet. clean.

Is this the worst value accomodation in the world? Somewhere has to be and this could be it. Extremely poor hostel accommodation at 140 pounds a night. Dreadful breakfast. Very cramped, very uncomfortable. Shared bathrooms and toilets. Is there anywhere that charges so much for so little?

Lovely place to stay as a family to explore Svalbard, with great views over Longyearbyen

Staff they have been very friendly and helpful.😍 Internet was not working on the cabin and was just available at reception ☹️😩

It’s the second time I have stayed at the coal miners. You couldn’t ask for better staff and the restaurant is great as well. Rooms are quite, easy to access, nicely heated and clean. I would recommend them.

Coal miners cabins were closed, had to stay in Radisson hotel

Basic room but clan and in good state of repair Food is good in the bar but menu is meat heavy Staff were pleasant and helpful
