Snowhotel Kirkenes

What an amazing visit to Snow hotel! We had a family room in the snow hotel which was fabulous ice art. Mom got nervous and the staff was SO gracious and let her stay in a warm cabin ( thankfully one was not yet booked ). Early in the day we did a great crab expedition- just wonderful, informative and delicious! AND the food was hyper local , fresh inventive and five star. ⭐️ fun to see sled dogs working, reindeer wandering and Sami handcraft displays. Thanks for a unique and warm experience!

We had a great stay at Snowhotel Kirkenes. We were well received despite being the only guests in the snow hotel. It was clean, plenty of things to do for a family and the service level was great. We especially recommend the King Crab Fishing activity which was very memorable. They also have reindeers and husky dogs on site and offer many different activities in the area.

Snowhotel overnight experience was fabulous. Bucket list for arctic circle BIG tick. Very professionally run. Included in snowhotel overnight evening meal and breakfast plus a lounge area for guests to access during the day and evening, setup with hot drinks and biscuits. I thoroughly enjoyed the Sami experience, learning a bit about the culture, to feed those beautiful reindeer and to drive off across the fjord on a huski ride. You are free to experience walks, snowshoeing, patting the huskies. I'd have stayed another night but unfortunately travelling as a single accommodation expenses get a little high when you pay the price of 2, but that is no reflection on this place. The staff are friendly and helpful, another note as a single I love the way the restaurant seating and overnight snowhotel lounge is setup as it forces people to interact with others, far too often travellers will resort to sitting on their own away from others. Have nothing but great things to say about this place, thank you for a wonderful stay ... slept like a baby in King Neptune's room
