Snowhotel Kirkenes
Sandnesdalen 14, 9910 Kirkenes, Norway – Great location - show map
This property is absolutely amazing. The staff, the view & the activities;all kept us engaged for the 1 night stay my sister & I did in April 2024. The ladies at the reception (Nikolina, Editha & Anna) are helpful, friendly & go the extra mile to make your stay comfortable. The staff that gets the activities done are super friendly as well. We did Husky ride & Snow mobile. The experience was a memorable one. 100% likely to return & experience the property in every season that Kirkenes has to offer.
