    The breakfast being included was a huge bonus as there weren't a ton of restaurant options in the area. We also had dinner in the hotel restaurant, which was delicious! We also enjoyed the common area since we were a group of 6 and were able to...

    Front desk girl, I forgot her name, was awesome. When she spotted the northern lights she let whoever wanted to know know with a wake-up call. Perfect place to see the northern lights, if they want to come out. The bed was super comfy. Loved it!!

    Great location to rest after a full day at the Golden Circle. Great restaurant and skies to enjoy the northern lights. The staff will call you when the northern lights appear.

    Location in the countryside was perfect, breaks up the trip around the Golden Circle so you can spend more time at each site. Restaurant and meals were outstanding. Staff was great, very friendly.
