Great rooms. Spectacular location. Plenty of great activities and the staff everywhere were very friendly and helpful….they all seemed to love being there.
It was a fun experience. But if you are coming with your family, I suggest not booking everyone in the Snowhotel. If you need two rooms, get one cabin and one Snowhotel room. The cabin is only a few minutes away, so you can walk over and sleep in the cabin if it gets too cold.
This place is amazing. While it is not near anything, dont worry. I could eat 3 meals a day here for a week and not want a change. Great staff. Loved the staff at the dog area especially.
We stayed in Cabin #8 wonderful location. Cabin was immaculate, lovely room. The dinners were fabulous, breakfast would have been great if you could have had freshly cooked eggs while you waited instead on the steam table scrambled eggs.
The Snowhotel itself is quite something. The ice sculptures were great.
We did a Northern Lights tour, it was cloudy but we still were able to see a small display!
My sleeping bag had velcro closure and was not usable, would not stay closed. Made sleeping difficult. zippers seem to be a better option. At least make sure velcro is in good condition. My wife had no issues with her velcro bag which was in good condition
Our experience was wonderful and very pleasant. The staff is very attentive and friendly. They catered to our every need. The location is idyllic, beautiful, and peaceful. Very quiet and surrounded by nature. Thank you so much for everything!
We loved our stay at the cabins at Snowhotel. The staff were so friendly and the cabins were lovely and modern. There were so many activities: we got to play with the husky working dogs and even say hi to the 12 new puppies, feed the reindeer, and take a beautiful snowshoe trail for views of the fjord. The food (all meals) was also absolutely fantastic. Would definitely stay again!

I loved every minute of staying with you. Every staff member was exceptional. Great attitudes and so kind and helpful. The thought that has gone in to the design, the activities and the food is obvious. Couldn’t be better. Thank you
