Reviews and Ratings
Staying in the Kelo-Glass Igloo was a magical experience, surrounded by nature and the possibility of seeing the northern lights. The rooms were not very comfortable, akin to a cheap cabin, but they did have a toilet, which was a plus. The service was friendly and attentive, especially with Nordin going the extra mile to ensure we enjoyed our stay. However, the location required some effort to access facilities, and the dining options were somewhat limited but reasonably priced.
I had a lovely stay at this hotel, located in a stunning area that allowed for some fantastic photo opportunities. The rooms were basic but had everything I needed to be comfortable. The service was generally nice, but I did encounter some rudeness from a few staff members. Overall, it's a decent value for the money, though the dining options could use some improvement.
Staying at this resort was a unique experience, especially with the stunning views aimed at witnessing the Northern Lights. The small chalet we stayed in was cozy, but it lacked a bathroom and storage space for our bags, which made things a bit inconvenient. The location was peaceful and surrounded by beautiful white snow, perfect for nature lovers. However, the dining options left a lot to be desired, especially considering the price. Overall, I loved the vibe and location, but some improvements are needed in the facilities and dining.
The hotel is located in a stunning winter wonderland, perfect for enjoying the Northern Lights. The rooms in the Kelo cabin are unique and cozy, but some amenities could be better. The service was friendly, although a bit stretched due to high demand. Overall, it's a remarkable experience, but be prepared for some limitations in dining and service.
I had a fantastic time at this hotel, especially with the unique experience of staying in glass igloos that offered breathtaking views of the northern lights. The location is unbeatable, making it a winter wonderland. However, the service left some room for improvement, as the staff seemed overworked and struggling to keep up with the demands. Overall, it's a great value for an unforgettable experience in nature.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed bag. The location was simply stunning and offered peace and quiet in a winter wonderland. The service was top-notch, with staff who treated us like family. However, I found the room setup a bit cramped and not the most comfortable for sleeping. The dining options left a lot to be desired, but overall, for a unique experience, it was worth the price.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed bag. The location was absolutely stunning, nestled in the forest and just a short walk to various attractions. The unique igloo bedroom was beautiful and offered lovely views, but the room itself felt a bit cramped. The service was friendly, but sometimes a bit slow during dinner. Overall, it's great for a unique experience, but a few improvements could be made!
I stayed at this hotel and overall, it was quite enjoyable. The location is fabulous, right inside the Arctic Circle, making it ideal for viewing the Northern Lights. The rooms are a bit lacking in space for the price, but the glass views were breathtaking. The service was friendly, but I wish they had provided more assistance for Northern Lights spotting. It's a unique experience staying in an igloo, but it comes at a cost.
The hotel is set in a stunning winter wonderland, which made for some incredible photo opportunities, especially with the auroras lighting up the sky. The rooms were quite small, and the lack of space made it less comfortable than I had hoped. The restaurant offered a good buffet, and while the service was decent, it was a bit lacking in attentiveness during dinner. Overall, it's a unique experience, but the small rooms and limited service take a toll on the overall enjoyment of the stay.
I recently stayed at the hotel, and while the location is simply unbeatable, especially for catching the northern lights, the rooms were a bit smaller than I expected, which was a letdown. The service was fantastic; the staff was friendly and helpful throughout my stay. Dining could use some improvement, as the variety was quite limited, but overall, I found good value for the money spent.
