View of Glaciers

Modern hotel with really helpful staff. A great on site restaurant and bar serving dinners and breakfast. If it is a clear day you can see three glaciers from the rear of the hotel. Free wifi and rooms with balconies. Bathroom with under floor heating. The staff offered a wake up call if the northern lights were showing which we missed on due to the cloud. A great place highly recommended!
