Great resort in artic Norway. We had an excellent dinner at the restaurant, very cozy common areas, great cocktails at the bar. Also very clean bathroom areas for the ice hotel guests.

My stay around New Year's at this accommodation was nothing short of magical. Nestled in the heart of nature, the location offers an unparalleled tranquility that city dwellers like myself deeply appreciate. One of the most enchanting aspects was the minimal light pollution at night, which allowed for a breathtaking view of the Northern Lights—a spectacle that was on my bucket list for years. Adding to the charm and comfort of this place was the jacuzzi. It provided a perfect sanctuary to relax and soak in the serene beauty of the surroundings. The warmth of the jacuzzi against the crisp air made the experience even more delightful and unforgettable. This accommodation is a gem for anyone looking to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and immerse themselves in the tranquility of nature. The opportunity to witness the Aurora Borealis in such a peaceful setting was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. I couldn't recommend it more for a magical and unforgettable getaway

This is the best hotel I have ever stayed in Europe. Extraordinary breakfast buffet with varieties, free coffee and tea throughout the day. Very nice and helpful staff. It is almost at the front of the sea and can be viewed the northern lights easily. From the breakfast area, there is very impressive panoramic view to Fjords and sea. From the hotel bed room you may request for ocean view, which is recommended. There is a kettle and tea in each room. Room was very clean. The restaurant in the Thon Hotel is very good. They serve vegetables, fresh fish/crabs and meat! The sightseeing tour bus stops here in front of Thon Hotel. I will come back again. I recommend everybody to try this hotel for a visit!

The hotel is in a beautiful location by the fjord, very beautiful! We had a room with the big bunk bed. The ladder can be removed from the middle of the bed, making it better for a couple. The room was clean and quiet and had everything we needed. Breakfast was just fine: bread, yoghurt, eggs and such. Also a big recommendation for the hotel restaurant, we had a superb dinner there! Great service, delicious local fish, craft beers and such!

The hotel is wonderful. Rooms are very cozy, you can adjust your own temperature. Bathroom was specious. Everything was very clean and well maintained. Breakfast selection was spectacular, so many varieties from warm foods to tasty croissants and even selection of plant based milks. The location is perfect, away from the city, but within reach or some hiking options and of course the northern lights are clearly visible there.

Tromso scenery is amazing.

Tromso scenery is amazing. We have been in summer and winter. So much to do. We hired a car the first time and drove around the many islands. This time we used public transport which is great. There are many hotels to choose from. Plenty of restaurants, bars, supermarkets and shops. Some tourist things are within walking distance, other things you will need to book a tour.

We chose Alta, the City of Northern Lights, to "Hunt the Aurora Borealis". We were NOT disappointed. It was a magical experience. Lots of beautiful northern lights shows. We did a number of activities: night time horse drawn sleigh ride and dinner; king crab fishing experience; tour of the Ice Hotel at Sorrisniva; dog sled ride at Holmen Husky. We stayed at a canvas dome in GLOD, with the most amazing guide to see the Northern Lights. We stayed in a forest suite at Holmen Husky. The place was incredible and the way they treat the dogs will completely change your thoughts on the sport of dog sledding. They were the sweetest and happiest dogs I've ever seen. We stayed at Flatmoen Natur Lodge, which is a family owned and ran farm. Each lodge has their own private, outdoor jacuzzi so you can sit outside while the snow is falling or hope to catch a glimpse of the Northern Lights.

Small town with great history.

Small town with great history. It revolves around tourist, so thankful that the museum was open on Sunday. As I did not join tours, I find 3 days was more than enough. The tour agency for Russian border stated having tours at in the afternoons however did not approve my request and insist that I book a private tour or join the morning tour (together with the tourists from the cruises). I did not want as my mother just arrived from the cruise after 7 days, and she wants to rest first. I ended up booking a taxi and the price is the same. The taxi driver brought us to both Russian borders (old and new), let us spend time and help us take pictures. The price was standard (NOK1,600) for an hour. What is lacking is probably a tour guide to explain things. But that is OK. Kirkenes has a great view but lack good viewing points (well, I did not find any...). I found a randomly shared viewing point up a hill which was good but not the best. Must visits - Andersgrotta (Daily, 12.30pm tour, NOK300 per person), Borderland Museum, Russian Border, and see the pictures in town by Ellisif Wessel.

Very picturesque island, two days is more than enough to explore it. Sunshine is a rarity. End of season mid August. Place for camper vans to park. One shop and one cafe. You can buy only beer in a shop, no alcohol. For a harder spirits you need to travel to Tromso. Bring your food if you can, shops sells very simple and not very good staff. More or less decent meal you can have in an arctic hotel, which is pricey and just ok, no more, choice is limited.

The price was too high for the poor accommodation we had during our stay in the lodge: the apartment we booked was not available at our arrive and they move us to a cabin with old furniture, that it looked like it hadn't been cleaned well, the terrace was partially occupied by old furniture. We had the impression to be in a location very good during the Summer time, but not yet ready to welcome customers in April-May: the apartment we booked should have been definitively more comfortable and with better spaces then the one the move us, considering the rate we paid for our stay! We will not recommend this accommodation to others!

I found it confusing at airport initially where shuttle bus was and located local buses instead. I was surprised roads and pavement not gritted like UK making walking difficult in places. Kerbs piled with snow make buses hard to get on and off. Cathedrals closed in day so you can't view. I heard cable car currently like a building site so declined that trip. Polaria is good to visit, Troll museum if you like Lord of the Rings and good for kids. Whale watching superb views. Reindeer feeding and lucky to see Northern Lights a must. Easy to use buses.

The city itself is not necessarily special or historic (though some bits are) but the area around the city has some great scenic walks and of course the outlook across the sea/bay is stunning at any time of year, but particularly in the blue hour of the winter days. Lots of buses run regularly to outlying areas and there are fast buses to the airport to connect with flight check-in times. Take a walk along Stien langs sjøen (path along the shore) to the Trondenes Historical Museum (great wee cafe there) and the Adolf cannon from WW2.

Lovely cute place which is not too commercial.

Lovely cute place which is not too commercial. Great place to do a northern light run, Go for a smaller tour size of 7-8 ppl instead of 50 sized. First its very safe even if you are going solo and also you have a more personal discussion with the group and also much more personalized attention to see the stars and the northern lights.
