Hotels With Spa in Finnmark, Norway

I stayed here one night, and i absolutely loved it! First and foremost, the staff was extremely friendly and welcoming. She told me to feel like home, that i could sit in the restaurant if i needed to work on my computer, that i could get coffee/tea whenever i liked, and if i needed anything i could just call her. She really made me feel like home. The hotel feels and looks very new and fresh, very chic and stylish, and so did my room. The room was rather small but big enough for me, and the bed was comfortable and i absolutely loved the bathroom. It had a rain shower, and it was clean and fresh. I went out for some take away dinner, and when i got back the lady insisted i ate it at the hotel restaurant and she got me cutlery, put on some lovely music and cozy light. I think this is probably one of the friendliest and most customer service friendly places i have ever stayed. The next morning i got my breakfast served on a plate at the time we had agreed upon. It was like this because there was so few guests at the time, so it’s no use to make a buffé for just a few people. And i kinda liked it. I love their profile, which is environmental friendly, and it shows in everything they do. 10/10.

We stayed in the Snowhotel for 2 nights in October on their autumn package. I have to say we were really disappointed. The hotel is currently a building site with many areas of construction so really not very peaceful. This was not mentioned at any time when we booked. If you are staying overnight in the ice-room you basically have no room or even personal area. We checked in off a Havila cruise at 10am and up until 3pm the following day when we moved in to a cabin, we had nowhere to go apart from a communal lounge. There are no lockers for your clothes so you have to leave them on top of your luggage in a store room which anyone can access- including groups just touring the hotel. They provide two curtained changing cubicles where you are supposed to get ready to sleep. When we arrived back at midnight from the Northern lights chase there were twelve of us all trying to get changed in the same space. It felt like we were in a hostel rather than a decent hotel. The next morning we were soaking wet after a walk but our cases had been moved - we discovered to the porch of the cabin but we were told we could not access it until 3pm. Instead staff said we would just have to get our dry clothes from the cases and change in a luggage room behind reception! No offer to go and get our luggage and bring it back to us. We also had a very unpleasant and dangerous experience during a husky walk due to a lack of basic safety instructions and an inexperienced staff member. I have given details of this directly to the hotel hopefully to prevent anyone suffering a serious injury in future. On a positive note the cabins are lovely once you get in them, If you are planning to go I would recommend staying in a cabin and you can just tour the ice-rooms.

Hard one to rate given there is a lot to like, but quite a few things let it down unfortunately. We stayed for 3 nights. A lovely building in a lovely spot, rooms are very nice & spacious with good bathrooms & very comfy beds. The surrounding area is very picturesque, with a frozen river right outside when we were there (fleeting views of the resident White Tailed Sea Eagles, none of the Moose unfortunately). Communal areas all very pleasant & good facilities. The bits that let it down: Given its location you’re probably going to eat in the hotel, which means the same menu every lunchtime & a different but same menu every evening gets very dull very quickly. Apparently they keep the same menu all season because “no one tends to stay for more than a week”. Our experience at the front desk was very mixed. Quite a few of the staff couldn’t do the basics like work out how to authorise a room key when it didn’t work, or know about different trips they offered: “as long as you book by 4pm you can go tonight”. 3pm “sorry it’s not running tonight, but you can go tomorrow”. Next day? “Trip full. Sorry” Our Spa experience was similarly confusing, with a hot tub that didn’t work & another that wasn’t actually hot, despite them taking bookings so knowing we wanted to use it. We found out the Manager is rarely on site, which explained a lot about how disorganised it was and the lack of attention to detail? Would we go back? At that price probably not, I’m afraid guests should get a lot more for their money

Flatmoen Natural is a wonderful place to visit but an absolute treasure of a place to stay. Our cabin was cosy, modern and well equipped with incredible views in all directions (including skywards!). Having our own hot hub was an amazing way to unwind after our daily adventures in the surrounding area. For added relaxation we used the brand new sauna (you book a 2-hour block for private use) which is an undiscovered gem with its own panoramic views of the surrounding countryside. Johnny delivered a delicious home-cooked breakfast to our cabin every morning which we enjoyed while taking in the spectacular scenery. Some people may prefer an on-site restaurant but this was a daily delight before starting our day. On our last evening we joined the Northern Lights sleigh tour experience from the farm. We were guided on a memorable trip by Leo who was very knowledgable about the farm, the horses and the local area and people. We were not lucky enough to see the Lights on our trip but had an amazing time nonetheless, sharing stories around the fire while Leo cooked us a delicious meal in the open air. Would thoroughly recommend Flatmoen Natur as a destination that combines a touch of luxury with the beauty and tranquility of Finnmark and the warmest of welcomes from Johnny and Levi.

When we planned our trip to Norway, we mainly wanted to see the Northern Lights, but we also wanted to stay in an ice hotel (just for one night). It was a bucket list experience of a lifetime and worth every penny! We arrived in time for dinner in the dining room shaped like a traditional Sami teepee. It was delicious and hit the spot after our long and white knuckle drive from Tromso. The hotel's website has very explicit instructions for what to wear to sleep in the ice hotel (basically just a merino wool top and bottom and socks and a balaclava and gloves) and what not to do in the igloo (don't leave your cell on an ice table or it will get frozen to it and leave it in your sleeping bag). You are given a mummy sleeping bag that is rated to below zero, a pillow and you sleep on a bed of reindeer pelts. We chose to sleep in a suite, which have the intricate artwork and themes, rather than in a plain room. The entire hotel is like an art gallery or museum because everything is made from snow and ice. The whole hotel melts away at the end of the season except for the LED lights. This was the 25th year of the Sorrisniva Igloo Hotel and their theme was the best of the last 25 years, so the snow and ice carvings were varied and very interesting. The biggest take away from the ice hotel for me was how quiet it was inside. The snow deadened all the noise. For me, it was hands down the best night sleep of my life. I felt like a baby in the womb snuggled in my sleeping bag and I wasn't cold at all. Now my husband, on the other hand, didn't have a restful sleep because he is of the age when a man gets up frequently at night to go to the bathroom. To do that, you have to get out of the sleeping bag, put on your boots without getting snow on your socks or wool undergarments and walk to the bathroom. Luckily it was right next to our room. He was certainly glad he had this experience and I wish he had the night's sleep that I did. The next morning we had a delicious and filling breakfast and then we headed out for a morning snowmobile ride. We each had our own snowmobile and the fresh snow on all the trees was breathtaking. They had special thermal suits for us to put on and we weren't cold at all. It was a ton of fun and I recommend adding this on to your stay. They also have a non-igloo part of the hotel and we were told that the King of Norway stays there in the summer to fish in the river on the property. So you know this is a well regarded place to stay.
