Wilderness Hotel Nellim & Igloos

We had a wonderful vacation. Everything was well organized, starting with the pick-up at the airport, the meals and all the activities. The guides were excellent and dedicated. The food in buffet form was good. We had the advantage of being there at the end of the season, so the hotel was not fully booked and we were able to do the activities in small groups. Our appartment was big and modern.

Excellent service, friendly staff and wonderful location. We had breakfast and dinner booked. It was every day a delicious menu with regional emphasis. Spectacular aurora made this visit very special. From arrival to departure a very pleasant experience.

We booked an Adventure week through Discover The World in early March 2025, and while not cheap, it was worth every penny, and simply the best holiday we have ever had! The hotel was beautiful, clean and very warm, and the buffet style food was very varied and extremely good. The staff were all lovely and the guides exceptional, particularly Gabor who deserves a mention for his enthusiasm, information about the area, wildlife and particularly the Aurora hunting! We were lucky enough to see fantastic Aurora displays every night of our stay, and they are truly magical. We had a log cabin with sauna for six nights and an aurora cabin for the last night. Both were clean, warm and comfortable, but the log cabin was better equipped and much more spacious for a longer stay, and the sauna was wonderful to have to relax in after a day of the extremely cold outdoors. The temperature ranged from -5 to -29 while we were there, so a good base layer of merino wool, plus two or three extra layers on top and fleece lined winter walking trousers were a good addition to the padded overalls, boots and mittens that are provided. Good gloves with silk liners, woolen hat, fleeced neck tubes and balaclava are also necessary, with ski goggles good for husky sledging and snowmobiling. I can highly recommend this holiday for anyone wanting something different and a fairly active time.

Stayed in an Aurora Cabin with a glass roof. Added to the great experience. In summary, a very nice, unforgettable 3-night package. For the price paid i would, however, expect that by registration one would receive some assistance with locating the accomodation and with transporting luggage. Also, the buffet concept belongs, in my mind, more to economy hotels.
