Skaret By Vander is a modern apartment hotel in the heart of Tromso, offering a fresh and flexible alternative to a traditional hotel stay. Opened in 2023, the property provides contemporary apartments designed for comfort, independence and longer stays, while its excellent central location places the best of Tromso directly outside the door. Whether you are visiting for a short Arctic escape, an extended business assignment or a memorable Northern Lights adventure, Skaret provides a practical and stylish base.
Located on Storgata 25, the property sits directly on one of Tromsos main pedestrian streets. Shops, cafes, restaurants and grocery stores are all close by, while the waterfront, Prostneset harbour and Polaria are within easy walking distance. The Tromso Cathedral, museums and cultural attractions are also nearby, allowing guests to explore much of the city without needing a car or relying on taxis.
The accommodation ranges from comfortable studios to spacious two bedroom apartments, providing options for couples, families, friends and business travellers. Several apartment categories include sofa beds, allowing additional guests to stay comfortably, while selected apartments offer attractive sea views. The two bedroom apartments are particularly appealing to families and groups who want to stay together while retaining plenty of personal space.
Every apartment has been designed with practical living in mind. Fully equipped kitchens include cooking facilities, refrigerator, dishwasher, oven, toaster, kettle and kitchenware, while dedicated dining areas make it easy to enjoy breakfast or prepare an evening meal at home. Private tiled bathrooms, comfortable seating areas and modern furnishings create a relaxed environment that feels much more like a home than a conventional hotel room.
Guests can enjoy free high speed WiFi and Chromecast TV, making it easy to stay connected or relax with entertainment after a busy day exploring the Arctic. Linen and towels are provided, while weekly cleaning is included for longer stays. Laundry facilities within the building are particularly useful for guests staying for several weeks or months.
Fitness enthusiasts can make use of the onsite gym, providing a convenient way to stay active throughout the visit. The building also has lifts and accessible facilities, helping guests enjoy a comfortable stay. The property is family friendly and provides a secure, modern environment with sound insulation and contemporary building standards.
One of the most attractive features is the flexibility of the apartment concept. Guests can stay for a few nights or much longer, making Skaret particularly suitable for business travellers, consultants, researchers, visiting staff and families who want more space than a standard hotel room can provide. The combination of a professional operator, proper kitchen facilities and comfortable living space creates an appealing option for extended stays.
The contactless approach makes arrival simple. There is no traditional reception desk, with online check in and mobile access allowing guests to unlock their accommodation using the Vander app. This provides additional flexibility for travellers arriving outside conventional reception hours. Luggage storage and full day security are also available.
Tromso itself is an exceptional destination for Arctic adventures. During the darker months, visitors can use the city as a base for Northern Lights excursions, dog sledding, snow activities and wildlife experiences. During the brighter months, hiking, cycling, boat trips and outdoor exploration become major attractions. The city also offers museums, Sami cultural experiences, excellent seafood and a lively restaurant scene.
