Great service and very good location

Reviewed By hiltho

I have visited this hotel several times. It is sentrally situated in walking distance from Alta town centre, with shopping centres, restaurants and swimming pool. Next to the hotel is also the Nortern Lights cathedral - a modern architectural gem. My room during this visit had a balcony and a beautiful view of the cathedral with the mountains as a backdrop. The personel of the reception and the kitchen provided exellent service. Our group had preoreder dinner, but forgotten to order a vegetarian meal for one person. In ten minutes the ktichen came up with a vegetarian dish anyway.

Bjornfjell Mountain Lodge

Situated in the heart of the arctic, the mountain lodge exhibits a deep-rooted connection to Norwegian farming and cabin culture. On average, Norwegians spend 60 days a year in cabins. This is a part of their cultural heritage. In earlier times the farmers brought their livestock into the mountains on pasture during the summer, and while herding the cows and sheep they lived in small cabins. At the mountain lodge they lived by the food they made, the berries they gathered, and whatever the nature offered them. At Bjørnfjell Mountain Lodge we want to give you the opportunity to take part in this Norwegian cabin culture. Stay comfortable inside our cozy cabins or in a room in the main lodge while enjoying the surrounding nature.

Wonderful stay in a winter wonderland

Reviewed By Claire W

Great location. Lovely cabin, cosy fireplace, good space and comfortable beds. Also has outdoor seating. Meals can be served in the restaurant or the cabin. We had ours in the cabin and it was so nice and relaxed for the family. Staff were very friendly and gave excellent service. We did sledging and had did the bonfire night experience. Both excellent. Was wishing we had skied too as the slope was right next to the cabin. Saw the northern lights. Cute sheep to feed and pet.

Holmen Husky Lodge

Holmen Husky is a small, family-run business who has been working with dogs since the 80s. Some of us have even grown up in the dogyard and on the sled. It is much more than an activity or an experience that has got us all addicted. it’s a feeling that must be experienced. Now we wish to let our guests get a taste of what we fell in love with, both on and off the sled. We welcome you to our home at Holmen and our way of living. This is a place for both relaxation and adventure. Whether you dream of watching the Northern Lights from the comfort of a warm bed or exploring nature with a team of huskies. A world of unreal contrasts. Next to nothing, close to everything. This is Arctic living.

Amazing Alta Experience

Reviewed By matt-bennett-nz

From the previous reviews my expectations were quite high, but Holmen Husky Lodge still massively exceeded them. We were on the four day trip and were introduced to the husky sledding life nice and gently on the first day with a short tour around the local area and a delicious dinner. The next two days we spent up in the mountains with our own husky teams. It was very special because we really got to know the dogs. Apart from the basics (thermal underlayers and sweaters) all gear was provided and super high quality so I never worried once about being too cold. Staff were also very attentive and making sure we were comfortable. Food was all included and every meal we had was exceptional. Cannot recommend this place enough to anyone who loves dogs, or just wants to try husky sledding.

Celebrating my 40 year old wife

Reviewed By mikkelQ

Taking my parents and wife out in to the wilderness to celebrate my wife’s birthday. Going to the beautiful Alta and up to Trasti and Trine out in the wilderness, at least it felt a bit like wilderness. This fantastic place with cabins, dogs and small buildings like henhouse and greenhouse. The warmth of the people and the surroundings of the nature is just giving peace in mind. Sitting in a cabin with windows in every direction and watching the northern lights dance above you, enjoying food made of chefs with pride and curiosity was just amazing. I want to recommend this place to anybody, the dog sledding, the food, the people, the place, you’ll get the fine dining and hands on experiences in activities, in the beautiful nature of Alta. This place they have made, is a place for couples, for families, for people travelling alone, this place will give everyone a good feeling. All I want to say is, go there, stay there, explore!??

Flott hotell midt i Alta

Reviewed By Veronica H

Flott hotell i sentrum av Alta, midt i smørøyet med butikker og restauranter i umiddelbar nærhet! Rent og ordentlig, fine rom. Innsjekking på egen hånd, med PIN-kode, fungerte veldig greit. Frokosten ble servert på Alattio noen meter unna.

Cosyness by the sea!

Reviewed By Joutomies

Very cosy and clean little hotel with great view to sea. Friendly lady of the house was taken care of us and giving good restaurant tips. Couldn’t wait for more. Some stairs, so with any disabilities might be unreachable. Breakfast was also something else than in big Scandic-type hotels.

Stanza al Solvang Camping

Reviewed By fabiogA361TA

Dopo aver passato una giornata su a Capo Nord il freddo iniziava a farsi a sentire. Sono sceso fino ad arrivare nei pressi di Alta. Ho soggiornato per una notte in stanza con bagno e cucina in comune però non era molto affollato e ero praticamente da solo. Il camping propone un'area abbastanza ampio per le tende oltre a molte hytte. Accanto alla reception ce un'area comune per pranzare/cenare. Stanza con letto a castello per due persone ma lo trovata un po' piccola. Staff gentilissimo. Prezzo per la stanza di una sola notte sui 67 euro.
