"Loved location & quiet of area. Easy walk to cruise ship. Breakfast has food for every time zone & is amazing. Great selection of juices.
Helena at front desk was super knowledgeable of area & did a great job of suggesting a great personal walking tour of Kirkenes. I followed it & very grateful to her as it made my stay worthwhile & complete with history & nature."
"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!"
"Perfect place to stay before catching our cruise. The front desk man was very nice and helpful. The hotel is in the city center and is close to several restaurants and a small grocery store. There is a restaurant that had a wonderful breakfast. The room had blackout curtains which helped darken the room during the midnight sun. The room was a little warm but we opened the window. You can walk to the ferry port, but a taxi is much easier."
