The location is superb - we were even lucky enough to enjoy an incredible aurora watching experience from Camp Ripan. The Spa facilities and overall experience is great. All meals were absolutely fantastic, and the staff welcoming and kind.

The hotel is right at the entrance in Kiruna, from south, and it has a very imposing architecture, the bar at the 12th floor offering an amazing view until far distance.
At the ground floor there are the lounge/bar and the restaurant, with great food options (buffet for breakfast and a-la-carte for dinner). Also there is a gym at 11th floor with basic but enough utilities for most needs. at 12th floor there's a sky-bar which exceeds the view and I fully recommend.
The room was very spacious and with comfy beds, nice and clean bathroom. The daily cleaning is not by-default, if you need cleaning one day you need to ask at the reception.
A special mention for the very helpful and supportive staff, both at reception and at bar/restaurant.
We really liked it and fully recommend!

A great place to stay! Large room, super clean, fast WiFi. There was a shared kitchen and living room with all the amenities one would need. The breakfast was nice and the lunch buffet really worth the money

They are moving the city so the old city looks like a ghost town. There is almost nothing to do and you don't see people on the street. Lots of accumulated snow and many fenced areas. The new city is not well established. It looks like a construction site and has few restaurant options. I didn't find any souvenir shops open to buy gifts. The center closes at 3pm and there is nothing to do in the city. I recommend taking trips outside the city, such as sledding, snowmobiling, and not wasting time in the city center until the move is completely completed.

A super cute small town in the middle of the Swedish arctic.
A super cute small town in the middle of the Swedish arctic. Make sure to book your tours in advance as there is not too much to do in Kiruna itself. Walking through the city and the surrounding nature is absolutely gorgeous in winter. Take care that the Buses needed to go to different places are very unreliable and don't run on weekends or holidays (especially the ones going to ICE hotel and jukkasväri). Not many restaurant options and many were closed when I was there (Christmas time) or closed early.

I wouldn't spend more than 4 days in Kiruna, and make sure you book lightsofvikings.com for northern lights hunting, they do everything professionally, you wouldn't regret it. We saw aurora borealis. And dog sledding. Ice hotel is a must visit! really like how they do it, and about 10-15 minutes walk you can see reindeer farm! And we don't like the old city, because they move the city to the new city, giving us the impression like in the walking dead movie, no one there, so quiet and no life, especially in winter.

We enjoyed all the activities we had in the beautiful landscapes of Kiruna, from dogsledding, to northern lights hunt, to snowmobile, to visiting a Saami village and reindeers. We highly recommend this place, preferably staying outside of the center that feels closer to nature.

Kiruna is a nice city, quite, clean, the land is beutifull.
Kiruna is a nice city, quite, clean, the land is beutifull. The visitor center in the mine has to be visited and Abysko National Park. In winter snowmobile has to be tried. Their is nice panaroma about the city from a mountine where seat lift or car takes on.

That was a real winter vacation with a lot of snow and cold.
That was a real winter vacation with a lot of snow and cold. I can’t say that I would want to live there permanently but just for a visit it was a great experience. We had a lot of fun with activities like Husky-tour, Northern-light tour, visiting Ice-hotel…
fantastic experience! i stayed in one of the reindeer cabins and it was exactly what i was hoping for - not very big, but you have everything you need, and it was very cozy. great location, not too far from the city center, walking distance to the ice hotel and the sami museum, amazing display of the lights right outside the cabin. tony and nick were very helpful - assisted with booking activities and airport transfers, and were quick to answer any questions. would highly recommend!
The room was clean and comfortable. Location of the hotel is perfect and in walking distance of the midnight sun trail and the city center itself. Note that the city is moving so the location of the hotel will probably change in the future.
Staff were friendly but not very social. However, I found this to be common for this region in Sweden. People just keep to themselves.
Breakfast was basic but has everything you need.
Ambiance of the pub downstairs was very nice and cosy.
if you’re not from Scandinavia and are on a budget, it’s always necessary to compromise. Given that necessity, this hotel is a very good option the rooms, albeit basic, have everything you need for a short stay. The shirt bathrooms are clean (toilet in your own room) and there’s even a sauna. The breakfast is one of the major perks. Checking in late at night is no problem at all, if everything is OK with your room.
Amazing stay! The staff was really helpful and welcoming, the breakfast was amazingly good and varied, and the included sauna really relaxing after a day out in the cold. The self-service kitchen was clean and included everything we needed, and the food at the Spis restaurant was really good. Easy to reach with the coach from the airport, and right in the middle of Kiruna! Thank you very much :)
A nice hotel in the downtown of Kiruna, already been there for a second time. A hotel with interesting layout and spirit of 80s-90s. Good location, free parking and sauna. Everything is very convenient and comfortable. Unfortunately will be gone soon with the part of the city. As a bonus one can hear (and feel!) a night explosions in the ore mine, a great Kiruna experience.
Really impressed with this hotel, wish we had stayed here for more nights, great vibe. The cabin rooms are super spacious with a massive comfortable bed. Overall this is a wonderful place which offers so many facilities, with the Spa a definite must.
The staff was amazing. By far the most polite and kind people I have met working for a hotel/hostel. The facility to safely keep the bags with them in the luggage room was highly appreciated. Will definitely stay here if I visit Kiruna again.
The owners were WONDERFUL! They were most helpful and kind! They offered assistance and tips above and beyond what I expected or needed for my stay at their hotel. They also have a very informative and interesting museum at the hotel.
We went to this hotel for the location outside of Kiruna, and the location is perfect for doing short hikes outside and getting away from most of the light polution. The beds were comfortable and the lounge area very cosy.
There is small but inteteresting Sami museum in the hotel - and it's free for guests (7-14). Breakfast was included, you can also use the kitchen. Hotel is located close to the centre of Kiruna (less than 10 minutes walk)
Very nice hotel with, a cozy, warm, and spacious room. Excellent breakfast with many different options, and a superb spa experience, which is a must-try. The price is high, but it is the value for money.
The owner was very friendly when we arrived and all was in order ready for check-in.
The location was good as we stayed there specifically to visit the ice hotel just a few kilometers down the road.
Great breakfast and wonderfully friendly staff. The restaurant/bar was also really tasty, and the sauna and pool were a big plus. Really high quality for a Best Western.
Our first 3 nights in Kiruna were at Northern Light Camp. The large windows in the facility were great! It was cozy and clean. Northern lights were great!
The hotel was very cute and in a great location. My absolute favorite was the on-site restaurant. The staff was very kind and everything was delicious.
