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.

Thought they could have given us a better room with a view . The young lad working the desk didn't want to look for anything else at early checkin. Great hotel and the most amazing choices for breakfast buffet.

pluses - excellent buffet breakfast, very good restaurant food, lovely position by water, 5 mins walk to town shops, cafes etc. shuttle bus to and from airport. minuses - if you don't book for dinner, you may be told there are no tables, but reception doesn't say you need to book. I was alone, but still had a bit of a battle to be given a table. .

Beautiful Setting

We stayed here for two nights before a Hurtigruten cruise and could not have enjoyed it more! The hotel has a beautiful setting on the water. (I would get a room with a water view; we didn't have one.) The room was clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the breakfast buffet in the morning very much! The hotel staff was very good.
