Hotel restaurant was great for dinner and had a fabulous breakfast that’s included. The room was really nice, the bed was really comfortable and had a big window that we were able to watch the Northern Lights from - the only downside is the door is old and very loud to open/close which can be disruptive if travelling with a partner who wants to sleep and you want to go outside.
