"This is not a luxury accommodation. But for the amount of money is great value. Rooms are clean and neat. Bathrooms clean. There is laundry available for very inexpensive amount (about $2 per load for both washer & dryer). Arne was our staff member taking care of us and he was great: extremely polite and professional, very well mannered and educated. We had great chats and he was very enlightening about Norway and Senja Island. We met other travelers who were also very nice and like-minded (profesional and family educated people into adventures and cultural travels, who were very friendly and enjoyed conversations). The location was convenient, and perfect road trip stop between Tromsø & Lofoten Islands."

"Fantastic and beautiful location for hikes, great restaurant, friendly staff, comfortable room."

"It is an older establishment but seems to be well maintained. It has a very nice English style pub,.but unfortunately it was only open on Friday and Saturday, but we had a very nice breakfast there in the morning. Its a small town business, so if you arrive late be prepared to call someone to be checked in. Fortunately there was a gentleman inside and opened up for us as soon as he saw us. Very freindly and quick check-in and free parking around back of the hotel. Lots of shopping malls within a 30 second to 3 minute walk and restaurants within steps of the front door. Great location."

"Nice staff and great breakfast."

"Amazing experience, a nature and animal lovers dream. "

"We were made to feel welcome at check-in and given help with directions to sightseeing in the Senja region as well as a great place to eat in nearby Finnsnes. A spacious room in fairly simple accommodation was suitable for our one night stay and the continental breakfast was good. Block-out curtains would have been nice."

"Loved the property but after we left the host tried to scam us by saying we left the place without tidying up. He wanted 1000NOK/£70. I told him we videoed the entire place showing it was spotless before we left, and he quickly told us to not worry about the 1000NOK. The place was also advertised as a 3 bedroom house yet he failed to tell us that one of the bedrooms is his private bedroom and is not to be used! I would return to Finnsnes, but never to this place."

"Incredible pace in a spectacular natural setting, about 1.25 hours from Tromso. Our fjord front cabin was spectacular- each day and night we woke to breathtaking views ( traveled in winter.). We saw the northern lights from our multiple balconies and the large windows in our unit. Everything was beautifully appointed. It is, however in a remote area tucked amidst mountains and fjords.! If you go, note there are no stores or on premise food purchase options except the restaurant. Also, it is not possible by Norwegian ABC laws to have a social or class of wine outside of the main hotel. BYOB, snacks and other provisions from Tromso ior elsewhere! It is a perfect and magical getaway! Thank you to the resort staff for making our stay truly memorable!"

"A Magical Christmas Cabin in Malangen We had the most incredible Christmas at this cabin in Malangen—it felt like we were living inside a Christmas card! The house was absolutely perfect, with every detail thoughtfully provided. From the cozy fireplace to the luxurious sauna and jacuzzi, everything exceeded our expectations. We especially loved using the snowshoes, enjoying the firepit under the stars, and relaxing in the peaceful surroundings. The location is ideal: a supermarket is just a stone’s throw away, and a resort with an activity center—offering experiences like dog sledding—is within walking distance. What truly made our stay unforgettable was the warmth and personal care from the hosts, Arvid and Victoria. Their hospitality went above and beyond, making the experience even better than advertised. If you’re dreaming of a perfect winter escape, this cabin is the place to be. We couldn’t recommend it more!"
