ADRIAN
United States of America
Excellent location, just a 150 ft walk from the Barents bus drop-off at the Thon Hotel and a fraction of the cost of the Thon. Extremely clean and comfortable rooms, floors polished and disinfected daily, we saw this.
Free Coffee from an automatic espresso machine in the lobby.
Owner on site, at least after 11am, let us store luggage in hotel until 6pm departure, let us use comfortable chairs in lobby.
Very convenient, next to a large square with an AJ mini-market for takeaway or eat in food, and a couple of convenience stores 7-11 type, Narvesen and Joker chains.

Thanasis, my host, made the trip special.
Thanasis, my host, made the trip special. He could not have been more helpful. The accommodation was super and was everything as described. The town itself had everything needed and the township was great to walk around. A tip for those arriving by plane...book a taxi to Kirkenes in advance. It was a blizzard when I arrived and all the taxis were taken. It was freezing and I was lucky that a driver called a taxi. for me or I might still be there. Thanasis drove me back to the airport upon my departure as the bus wasn't timed to coordinate with the plane departure time. An excellent host! I missed the Northern Lights but Thanasis sent me a photograph of them the following night. My timing was off by one night.

Kirkenes is a small pleasant town with few sights but the Grenselandmuseet is well worth a visit. The location is recommended for viewing the Northern Lights but it was too cloudy during our visit (Nov). There are a few restaurants in the centre, the most popular being the Ritz with very good pizzas.FrankUnited Kingdom - 8.0Scored 8.0
It is the area around Kirkenes that is the main attraction.
It is the area around Kirkenes that is the main attraction. We travelled to Grensa Jacobselv beach which was beautiful and sunny on the day we visited, same for Ovre Pasvik National Park which was breathtakinlgy beautiful. Both are quite a drive from Kirkenes though and we chose the town to learn about the history from WWII, the hotel had a pool (although it was not operational!!) and as the airport was there. Next time we would definitely go for a cabin in the woods and see the reindeer up close. In town we ate at Surf n Turf which was decent, waiter had a sense of humour and good was quite good. Nothing spectacular but good enough, depends what you like. The other place we ate in town was Ritz, which was an excellent pizza and we would recommend it for the food but was pricey compared to other towns in Norway; little other choice though. Most other places were closed we assumed due to no tourists, so not worth it or maybe worse closed down following Covid downturn. The central part of town had the feeling of needing a boost from its Covid slumber. We loved the area though and will come back, armed with better knowledge than first-timers.

We stayed 5 days, much longer than most visitors because we wanted to maximize the chance to see the northern lights. As it turned out, 4 nights were cloudy and on the last night, the skies cleared a little and being at Sollia and having trekked into the countryside up the hill from the lodge, gave us the best chance to view the lights, just a 10 minute walk from our room. There were enough activities in kirkenes to keep us amused for 5 days - dog sledding with Birk's (here you're the driver of the sleds), king crab expedition and you drive yourself there on the frozen Barents Sea, the Andersgrotta the underground bunker was very interesting, hiking in the Taiga, and we had to have our daily coffee at Johnny's Lunch Cafe in Kirkenes. Johnny is an Italian and makes coffee the only acceptable way with an Italian Expresso machine. Thank heavens for Johnny's! Coffee in Kirkenes mostly comes out of cafeteria type/press the button coffee.GenAustralia - 10Scored 10

If you plan to visit the north of Norway in the winter, a stay in Kirkenes will give you the full experience. Area is save, people are friendly and all services like transport ext. works as clockwork. Also a lot to do in the short winters day.

- From $270.90 per night9.0Scored 9.0WonderfulRated wonderful· 452 reviewsThe location is amazing; surrounded by stunning scenery, wildlife, peace and quiet. Plenty of activities to do summer and winter. It is not far from the town of Kirkenes and a short drive from the airport. The food was super-tasty and short-travelled. We will never forget our night sleeping on beds made of ice!Hotel staff made us feel very much at home (one member of our family became poorly during the stay and staff went out of their way to help, providing transport to and from hospital - thank you, Mathias).
RagnhildUnited Kingdom - From $79.46 per night6.3Scored 6.3PleasantRated pleasant· 1,054 reviewsWhen I was booking I saw that this hotel got rather mixed feedback, but I had a good experience staying there for two nights (start and end of journey). The hotel has a good, central location in Kirkenes and is combined with a Chinese restaurant. It's definitely among the cheapest options available and I felt I got good value for the money there. If you're looking for a luxury resort this is not your spot, but if you're looking for a clean and comfortable good value option I can definitely recommend this place.
KnutNorway - 8.8Scored 8.8ExcellentRated excellent· 82 reviewsWonderful welcome from a very caring couple. .walking distance from Hurtigruten/havila port. Lovely wooden house. Felt like home from home. Very clean.Everything provided for long or short stay. Even dishwasher and washing machine. Walking distance to town. Owners told me when the Northern Lights were visible, so I could run out and see. Tlanassis also drove me to Border and Snow Hotel. I would absolutely love to stay there again. Thank you, both..You deserve to do well, and I'm sure that you will.ChristineUnited Kingdom
- From $270.90 per night9.0Scored 9.0WonderfulRated wonderful· 452 reviewsIt is a once in a lifetime experience with the ice sculptures, bar, lighting and beds on a block of ice. The staff went into detail in how to get comfortable in your sleeping bags to ensure maximum comfort. The breakfast was good and so was the dinner. Waking up in the morning, it is time to get into the sauna to get your body temperature up followed by a shower and a hot breakfast. The staff were excellent in ensuring that we did not miss our shuttle service to the Hurtigruten ship.
DanielSouth Africa - From $90.30 per night5.6Scored 5.6Above averageRated okay· 267 reviewsHaving read the reviews, I was pleasantly surprised by our accommodation. Our room opened directly off the lobby, and although small, was warm and comfortable, with perfectly laundered bedding. The lobby contained a coffee machine and microwave, and there was a supermarket on the square, as well as a number of restaurants (we can recommend the Bangkok). The location was very central, directly opposite the Scandic and next to the local taxi depot.AnnIreland
- 9.1Scored 9.1WonderfulRated wonderful· 124 reviewsFirst we tried to enter at the wrong door (the door the picture on booking.com homepage shows), the host showed us the right entrance in the back and showed us how to handle everything and told us where to go for something to eat at 21.00h. Breakfast was already in the fridge, there was plenty of bread, orange juice, marmelade, eggs and more. Appartement ist perfect for a short or long stay in Kirkenes.AndreasSwitzerland

We arrived quite late so only got to sample breakfast - which was very nice with a good range of food. The room was clean and bed comfortable. The hotel staff at reception were very pleasant. I'd certainly stay here again if I was passing.
