Put this Hotel anywhere in the world and you'd be delighted, then you look out of the window and realise you're at the top of the world. Ice, snow, darkness, i still can't believe i was there. The rooms are large and well equipped, the breakfast is fabulous and staff so helpful. Great Cocktails in the beautiful bar and lounge. I'd love to keep this place a secret but that just wouldn't be fair. Go, go now.

The Funken Lodge has to be one of the nicest hotels we have stayed in. From the location to the staff in all areas of the hotel you couldn't fault it. The hotel was execptionally clean, the public areas and the rooms alike. There were plenty of quiet areas if you didn't want to sit in the main bar area, not that it was ever rowdy. The food in the resturant was exceptional. As was the breakfast which was included in our stay. The bar food and cocktails were also very good. The view from the resturant down to the town and fjord was beautiful. The walk into town was about a 1km and we did it every day with no problem. It is actually well lit. The sauna was a lovely way to wind down after a days exploring. We would definitely stay here again. From start to finish it was and incredible stay.
