Where is the villa located?
VillaThe villa is located 50 minutes from Tromsø Langnes Airport and 60 minutes from downtown Tromsø.
Are the apartments centrally located?
ApartmentsYes, all our apartments are within walking distance of the city center. Parkgata is located in the heart of the city, while Karl Pettersens gate is in a quieter street but still uniquely close to the city. They are both an 8- to 10-minute taxi ride from the airport, or a longer but cheaper bus ride – it's up to you!
How do I check in?
GeneralAll our apartments have a self-check-in system, and a couple of days before arrival, you will be sent a unique door code that starts working 10 minutes before check-in time. You will also receive other necessary information for your stay.
Can I have an early check-in or late check-out?
GeneralAbsolutely! This depends on our cleaners' availability and whether we have other guests checking in on the same day. Please notify us in advance if you would like this option. Note that a service fee applies, depending on the day of the week and the number of extra hours requested.
Can I store my luggage somewhere before check-in or after check-out?
GeneralUnfortunately, this is not possible. However, you can store your luggage at Tromsø Harbour Terminal, where the airport express bus also stops. If you plan to go shopping, Jekta Shopping Mall also offers luggage storage before you head to the airport.
Are bed linen and towels included?
GeneralYes, all our units come with both bed linen and towels.
Are basic amenities like soap provided?
GeneralWe provide shower gel and shampoo from the brand Skandinavisk in the scent "Skog" (infused with birch syrup, as a tiny homage to our name Björk, which means birch).
What tours do you recommend?
