We loved our stay at the cabins at Snowhotel. The staff were so friendly and the cabins were lovely and modern. There were so many activities: we got to play with the husky working dogs and even say hi to the 12 new puppies, feed the reindeer, and take a beautiful snowshoe trail for views of the fjord. The food (all meals) was also absolutely fantastic. Would definitely stay again!

This property delivers exactly what you'd expect, an adventure around every corner. This manifests with dog sledding, king crab tours, snow machines, or a night in the ice hotel. Breakfast and dinners were a welcome plus. A must stay on any bicket list!

This was a highlight of my visit to Norway. The ice hotel was beautiful and not at all hard to sleep in. The sleeping bag was so warm I was sweating. I'm so glad I stayed!

This is a unique.property, way, way north! It has a pretty unique Sami experience. Beware icy spots on the property in the long-lasting winter .Also, tour buses arrive with lots of folks to enjoy king crab, and the sled dog experience! But, it is very unique and enjoyable, with good staffing!

Stayed in the snow hotel itself, which was fun if you got into the spirit of the sleeping bag palaver! I was disappoint withthe ice sculptures/carving as although well done, they were not at all norwegain or inspired by the artic but rather dinsey! All very strange and not very culturally embrassing! Fun hiskie sledges. The northern light hunting although we had some great sites was lacking in anything other than a driver taking you to a laayby in a dark place!!

Stay in the heated cabins

Very comfortable and quiet. Stayed in a heated cabin. Food was very good but if you are a picky eater there are not a lot of choices at dinner time. Breakfast had a wide array of food from eggs, meats, fish, granola, yogurt to fruits and vegetables. Very pleasant staff. The reindeer and dogs are adorable !

This is a magical place! We fed the reindeer, we played with the husky puppies, we walked down to a Sandy Beach and bathed in the Langefjord. The cabin was beautiful and comfortable with coffee and tea and a lovely porch to look at the beautiful scenery in Finnmark. Stuff for friendly and helpful. We loved our stay!

We had the best time at this resort- the dogs, the reindeer, John Henry’s wonderful presentation on Sami culture, the King Crab expedition, the northern lights hunt ( didn’t see any on the hunt but it was really fun anyway and there they were right at the snow hotel when we got back) the ice rooms, the food, the staff, the cabins.. I can’t decide what was the best part- we loved the whole experience. The only thing that would have made it better would have been staying 3 nights instead of two.

It’s a very fun concept, but if you are not from one of the cruises you are almost forgotten about. They have such a crazy influx of people from the cruise that they get overwhelmed and can’t handle everyone. The activities are too expensive for somebody already paying so much to stay at the hotel. It is such a cool place it just does not seem organized and well ran.
