8/10 Good

A nice sized room, friendly, professional staff, a delicious dinner at the on-site restaurant and a fabulous breakfast buffet after a great night's sleep. The area is a little blah, not much too do, but the hotel was a happy surprise.

If all hotels had receptionists that are as good as Benjamin then the world of travel would be a much better place.
Anthony, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

This hotel was a clean, warm choice for our one-night stop. Our flight arrived at 8.30pm, so the 9pm restaurant closing time was a little tight (and other dining options were limited), but thankfully the helpful staff were able to squeeze in a meal for us at the last-minute.
Tanya, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Came on Sunday so stores were closed but the hotel was right in the downtown area.

Great breakfast and comfy bed.

Comfortable room with a lovely bath and a substantial breakfast spread included in the price. Easy viewing of the northern lights from the window also sealed the deal. The food in the restaurant was also very good. Particularly the fish.

Great place to stay in Kirkenes

Great place to stay in Kirkenes. We arrived in the morning from the port so dropped our luggage in their large and secure luggage room and set off exploring. Check in was easy, staff were friendly. Fantastic room, very large and spacious, so much so we had to check if we had been upgraded! Large bathroom as well, with heated floor which was fantastic in February. We made use of the pool and sauna as well, just have to get a key card from reception to access.

As a family room, the room is very small. It’s a double room size with two foldable beds from the wall. Otherwise the beds are comfortable.
