The reindeer in the yard, greeting you as you enter.
200 huskies howling their welcome as the northern lights flickers across the sky.
Walking through the magnificent Snowhotel and seeing the unreal ice sculptures and carvings.
The view to the fjord from Høyloftet restaurant, and the crackling fire in Gabba.
The Snowhotel Kirkenes Restaurant concept is based on short-travelled, pure local ingredients, such as reindeer, lamb, arctic fish and king crab.
We strive to always add an extra touch to our dishes.
