The bed was comfortable, the room was clean and warm. There was no staff there during our stay and when they did show up, they were very unfriendly. Lots of people queued up to try and leave bags and check in. Since there are limited planes that arrive, you'd think they would be there knowing that there would be people wanting to drop their bags - especially when the footpaths are covered in ice. Breakfast situation was odd - we didn't try it after seeing it was a tray left in the kitchen (a converted motel room and pretty bleak). Forget asking for information about the town as there was no one there to ask. Common areas were a bit dirty. It was cheaper than other places in town but might be worth paying a little extra.

Low cost hotel for the night.

I appreciate that they left our room key out for us. We were there to sleep while waiting to go on a cruise the following day. I would say that most of the people who also went on the cruise stayed at another hotel but for the price and distances to the shopping center it wasn't bad. I wish the restaurant had later hours but there was a pub about a block away.

Old hotel and attched to a Chinese restaurant. Can't say it's comfortable but also can't say anything bad given the location and price. Still the No.1 budget choice in this small town.

This hotel was was a perfect budget one night stay while we waited on the coastal ferry to take us south. The room was as advertised and the staff were friendly and helpful. The dumb waiter to move luggage to higher floors rather than carrying up stairs was welcome after a long day of traveling.

Förmånligt boende ifall man inte är kräsen

Mattorna i trappan är i behov av grundlig rengöring. Dörren till rummet hade en stor springa varför ljudet från korridoren störde. Hotellet saknar hiss. Sängen var skönt och badrummet rent.

The property is clean and functional and the beds comfortable. Nothing to do with the Hotel but when you plan to stay in Kirkenes make sure there is not a music festival. The noise outside goes on until the early hours of the morning. We were on an early flight out and got very little sleep. The other guests were very noisy as well. There is also pub/club next door with people making a fair amount of noise on the street.

Better options exist

This is an old property. A 3-block walk from the airport bus stop. Very limited front desk hours. No tea option in the lobby. No elevator but a dumbwaiter for your baggage. Breakfast box available for 950 Kronos that wasn’t worth it. Room was fine but no frills. Internet OK.

Cheap and decent hotel

A cheap hotel that gives decent value for money. The standard was as expected given the price. Recommended for a simple sleep over.
