It was a fun experience. But if you are coming with your family, I suggest not booking everyone in the Snowhotel. If you need two rooms, get one cabin and one Snowhotel room. The cabin is only a few minutes away, so you can walk over and sleep in the cabin if it gets too cold.

We stayed in Cabin #8 wonderful location. Cabin was immaculate, lovely room. The dinners were fabulous, breakfast would have been great if you could have had freshly cooked eggs while you waited instead on the steam table scrambled eggs. The Snowhotel itself is quite something. The ice sculptures were great. We did a Northern Lights tour, it was cloudy but we still were able to see a small display!

We loved our stay at the cabins at Snowhotel. The staff were so friendly and the cabins were lovely and modern. There were so many activities: we got to play with the husky working dogs and even say hi to the 12 new puppies, feed the reindeer, and take a beautiful snowshoe trail for views of the fjord. The food (all meals) was also absolutely fantastic. Would definitely stay again!

This property delivers exactly what you'd expect, an adventure around every corner. This manifests with dog sledding, king crab tours, snow machines, or a night in the ice hotel. Breakfast and dinners were a welcome plus. A must stay on any bicket list!
