A very nice stay at the Hotel. We stayed in a 4 beds room and it’s spacious and comfortable. Like the hardness of the bed. Breakfast was good with variety of choices. So as the dinner and we enjoyed a lot. Staff all very friendly and helpful. Love the hot tub and sauna outside the hotel. They provides bathrobe and extra towels for use.

Great hospitality, the hotel has two hot tubs and the breakfast was excellent. There’s not much light in the surroundings making it a perfect location to see the northern lights
