Yggdrasil Farmhotel is about 50min drive from the Tromso airport, it overlooks a fjord and is not hard to find. I rented the tiny house for myself, I had some activities planned but was looking for a quiet time out I could do some thinking and planning for 2024. The place is warm and cosy, the breakfast is excellent. The tiny house lacked some utensils for cooking and I was not able to have Wifi within which made me sit in the public areas to complete some work. I loved the woodfired Sauna. The weather was a challenge while I was there so I spend more time inside then I anticipated. It was a pleasant stay if you want to be away from the busy little city of Tromso.

Amazing place to stay if you want and need something quiet. I was with my daughter and we enjoyed our stay at Yggdrasil Farmhotel! Friendly, nice and amazing owners and staff! Nice, clean and warm cabin! Delicious food! Beautiful views! Moreover, we had nice little hiking trip to see the Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis) with a guide on the hotel premises (to the mountains). That was something unbelievably beautiful and unreal!

This is as good as it gets. Superb host, very nice room, very clean, gorgeous setting, excellent food, parking included.

Peace beauty kindness colors river ocean birches (Room too hot!!!!)

The room is a bit small than we expected, and no facilities (i.e. refrigerator/coffee table) inside the room, except the bed, individual toilet and cupboards. The breakfast and the host were nice and their dogs are very cute and friendly. We have also joined their tour to see the northern lights. It was a great experience but overall the trip is a bit rushed and spent much time to stay in the cabin for food.

This is a special place on earth, and Maria is a wonderful hostess and owner. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. She prepares farm-to-table fare that is delicious. However, we were visiting in March, and at that time of the year the options for a vegetarian is rather limited. Other than that, which is certainly understandable, this was a great place to relax, unwind, snowshoe, and ski (rentals in Tromso).

Not a place we would normally stay but for northern lights seemed to be the best choice. It snowed everyday while there so no Northern Lights. We drove on snowy roads to fill time so in retrospect would have stayed in town but not due to unhappiness with the retreat. Food was very good and breakfast was artwork. Resort arranged a dog sled ride and took us there, Everything is ala carte so be prepared to pay for anything you desire outside of the great breakfast. Evening meals were outstanding. I would go back for opportunity to see Northern lights.

Splendidly simple and simply splendid

It’s cosy, tidy, well decorated and in a good location. I really enjoy staying here. Love the food especially the creamy Norwegian fish soup. Hope I can visit again shortly.

Beautiful farm hotel with lovely animals and amazing view. Everything brand new and clean. Great food for dinner and breakfast.

Was a nice stay. Nice nature and friendly staff. Prices where quite high, but thats everywhere in Norway. Only thing I missed was being able to buy some snacks etc. Should have a small kiosk with some chips, sodas, chocolates, tootbrush etc.

Amazingly peaceful place to stay. Food excellent and got to see Northern Lights on 2 nights! Really enjoyed our stay. Only let down was the 'queen' bed in the cabin wasn't very comfortable.

Very nice stay. We were in the Viking suite which is by the stable so the animals are outside the window. On one night the sheeps started making a lot of noise at 4am which kept us awake and was very frustrating, but the other nights were fine. All other amenities such as sauna jacuzzi etc are charged extra so we didn’t use them. The place is beautiful and we saw the northern lights just outside our room!! Breakfast is lovely as well.

Absolutely loved this place. Amazing room, with direct access to all the animals. Great location for relaxing, chilling with the animals, moose spotting and of cause northern lights spotting. I was very fortunate to see them whilst being in the hot tub. Breakfast every morning was lovely. Chia pudding, oat pudding, their own hen eggs, soft bread, cheese and butter. They have an espresso machine which provided great coffees. The owners were very friendly and took interest in our stay and our lives. They also gave great tips on what to do and what the weather was up to. They also have the cutest little dog ever! A big thank you :-)

Where to begin!!! The property is beyond charming with breathtaking vistas from atop the hill, perfect for stargazing and catching a glimpse of the Aurora. Maria and her little shadow Ebla were warm and inviting and Silvia made the most incredible food we have ever tasted. The environment that the entire fantastic staff creates promotes total and complete relaxation. If you are light hunting, this is the perfect place to do it, as even if you aren’t lucky enough to experience them, your trip will not be a disappointment. This is a magical place, and staying in cottage #1 absolutely filled my heart with joy to be able to open the window and be greeted by all of the beautiful animals that reside right outside of your door. Loved Loved Loved it.

A perfect setting for a holiday, super clean, the most delicious breakfast and dinners! We were blown away with it. We loved that you had to take off your shoes, made it feel more relaxed and homey. The views were to die for, the animals so sweet and fluffy this time of year. They’re very accommodating and nice to English speakers. We’d come back right away if we could.

Amazing space and delicious food. Would have been easier if the long driveway and walkway had been salted with so much ice, but otherwise a wonderful stay.

peaceful, beautiful surroundings and great staff and hospitality! wonderful to have 24/7 coffee and tea available. nice linens and warm floors. Maria, the owner felt like family!

A lovely stay for us, unfortunately missed out on spectacular Northern lights show by one day :( Very cool, comfortable and hygge experience. Only slight gripe is there are a few hidden costs that could be included or packaged up- eg pay 250NOK each time for sauna, 150NOK for snow shoes hire etc. Considering this is Norway though, we can say that overall this was a very pleasant experience! Would recommend.

Great: the dinner we had of curry baked cod was magnificent! We also really enjoyed the common area with very comfortable sofa for relaxing. And the snowshoeing was fantastic! Great opportunity to get some exercise and see the countryside. Overall the location overlooking the water and mountains was lovely! Good: breakfast was nice but would have loved some scrambled or fried eggs instead of hard boiled. Ok: the beds were very basic and you could hear the springs underneath when you moved. It did not make for a very good nights sleep. Disappointing: the cost of the sauna and jacuzzi was exorbitant. 250 NOK for jacuzzi per person per session was shocking to me. The only saving grace for us was that no one else wanted jacuzzi that day so we had it to ourselves. The owners were nice to open it at 1 pm upon our request, instead of the usual 9 pm. There was no auroral activity during our stay so we preferred afternoon jacuzzi before dinner instead of late after dinner.

Absolutely beautiful location, great food & ambience, v welcoming hosts

The location is amazing! Landscape is very very beautiful and the area is nice for a hike and lots of photographs. The staff is very nice and helpful. The food in the restaurant is very delicious (try the deer). I definitely recommend staying here if you are looking to stay in the beauty of Norway nature.

We flew into Tromso for just one night, to offer a chance to see the Northern Lights. Boy, what a magical stay it was! We enjoyed the rental of the private sauna, even a roll in the snow to cool off and head back in. We stayed in cabin 1 which was placed just so, the bedroom windows faced the ridge where the Northern Lights were. I don't know if they're always in the place or if we just got lucky but they were AMAZING this night. My daughter and I were squealing! Just beautiful to behold as they danced across the sky!

This is a hidden gem of Tromsø! Everything is almost perfect due to it’s picturesque location. The best place to view Aurora Borealis due to zero light pollution at this area. The host Maria & Eivind are always making sure everything is up to their guest’s request in order to make their guests’ stay comfortable. Maria is a great chef! She knows what cooking is all about. This property is for those want city escapade & the tranquility with peaceful mind & soul...not for party animal!
