Book Cheap Hotels in Northern Sweden

School house beautifully converted into a fabulous luxury hotel! Fully equipped fitness center, small but lovely rooms, friendly and welcoming reception. Great deal for the price!!

Staff was disinterested and unhelpful. We asked for the hotel to call a taxi for an early departure to the airport, and no taxi showed up. At 3:30 am, there was no one at reception and were only available to someone with a cell phone plan that works in Sweden. We would not go back.

Kiruna is in the Arctic Circle so of course it's like being in snow heaven, at least in early February when I was there. I wish I had had a few nights rather than one to enjoy the town itself and take in maybe one more activity. I went to the Ice Hotel and then snowmobiling to see the Northern Lights which were active (though you need a camera and tripod to catch the green-filled sky) and I caught a falling star when I glanced up once. The hotel was very Scan, modern and a lot of glass which is what I always see in film and television despite the weather implying wood and fireplaces. The staff was helpful, pleasant, and were familiar with the activities, bus, and taxis which is important for an inexperienced traveler on their own. My room was a cabin, which is really a row of connected cabins, but it was really pretty. The bath was heated slate grey floor, white sink, great liquid soap, fresh towels. The room was also clean and well-decorated in white, grey, green. There was a small sofa, kind-sized bed, and huge window looking out at all the snow. My only suggestion is allow the clients to adjust the room temperature, the thermostat was locked and I was slightly cold, I had to wear my long-johns to bed. Otherwise, I loved it. TV channels are sparse, no internet in rooms, and no DVD so bring your own stored stuff to watch if you like that sort of thing (I do but I was too tired to care!). There is a room on the second floor of the lobby where you can get online.
