Part of our mining heritage. Outlook to the wilderness.
Welcome to Coal Miners' Cabins
When you stay at Coal Miners' Cabin, you are in the heart of Svalbards' Mining History. When Mine 2 opened in the 1940s, several two-storey barracks were set up in Nybyen, Longyearbyen’s little ‘satellite town’, to accommodate the miners. Today these same barracks are a relaxing and welcoming hotel, on the doorstep of the Arctic Wilderness.

Located at the top of the Longyear Valley, with the Arctic wilderness as its closest neighbour and its cosy atmosphere, Coal Miners’ Cabins is a popular place amongst travellers of all ages.
