I'm going there to board a vessel, how many nights could I spend there, I have time and it will be in August.

Also, does someone know which is the cheapest accommodation option?

Thank you very munch indeed for help

You can stay as long as you want or as long as you can afford to :-)
The cheapest accomodation would probably be Gjestehuset 102 at NOK 300 per night.

A vessel in August? Now that wouldn't be the GAP ship now would it? That's the one we will be boarding. :)

We booked the Spitsbergen Guesthouse through booking.com which was a lot cheaper than the Radisson or travel agent suggested.

I'm going to be boarding the Fram from Hurtigruten

hey Zwendel, are you on the GAP ship leaving on 10th Aug? Am also staying at the Guesthouse for a couple of nights before the ship leaves. Can't wait! :)

Yes we are. :)
But we are arriving the night before our departure, late at night, so we'll see you at breakfast. ;^)
