Dejligt hotel

Hyggeligt hotel med sæde og venlige personaler. Værelset pænt og rent men der kunne godt have været et køleskab. Det var der så i underetagen. Kaffe, the og diverse juicer til fri afbenyttelse hele døgnet. Dejlig morgen buffet. Så tak fra os. 4 stjerner.

Fantastisk for en familie

Hyggelig hotell med vennlig personale, familievennlige fasiliteter og utmerkede tilknyttede aktiviteter og restaurant. Frokosten var utmerket, middagen i gamma var god og koselig, og omvisningen på Sapmi Park av en lokal samisk jente med egne reinsdyr var ett av feriens høydepunkter. Kombinert med omvisning i Sametinget leverte Karasjok på alle punkter.

Godt hotel.

Ikke særlig god info ved check in, bl. a. blev det ikke nævnt at der var gratis kaffe og hvor det var. Det defekte toilet sæde blev skiftet prompte. Lidt lydt på værelset. Morgenmad var supergodt, spejlæg og det hele. Bacon skal være sprøde, det kender de ikke til i Norge 😅 Vi overnattede 2 nætter, fine muligheder for vandreture.

Snelandia får strykkarakter

Litt språkproblemer..skulle ta buss Snelandia fra Karasjok mot Varangerbotn..og i resepsjonen sa dei at bussen kom via hotellet..det gjorde den, men 20 min før oppgitt tidspunkt. Så da må man enten stå klar 20 min før tia, eller gå 5 min til bussholdeplassen..bussen burde heller svinge innom hotellet på oppgitt tidspunkt før den forsatte mot Varangerbotn..
