Snowhotel Kirkenes

    Hidden away in the Arctic wilderness, and yet close to the small town of Kirkenes in Northern Norway, is the enchanting Snowhotel Kirkenes. An adventure playground of frozen proportions, Snowhotel Kirkenes is the most northerly snow hotel in the world. When you’re not hunting down the Northern Lights, embarking on a husky safari, or encountering wild reindeers, chilling out in the hotel is just the thing. When it comes to dining, floor to ceiling windows in the main restaurant give you a glimpse into the dramatic landscape that surrounds you here at Snowhotel Kirkenes.
