Jeg kommer flere ganger til Sorrisniva
Atmosfæren, beliggenhet, roen og nydelig middag. Jeg ble overrasket over design og arkitektur og Álttájohka- Altaelva
Bør synliggjøre samiske stedsnavn langs elvebredden

Erittäin viihtyisä majoitus rauhallisessa ympäristössä
Hotellissa kaikki toimi. Erittäin hyvä ja rauhallinen huone. Iltaravintola tasokas. Tavallaan normaali aamiaisvalikoima, mutta erittäin laadukkaat raaka-aineet.

Sorrisniva Ice Hotel and Artic Lodge
The Ice hotel is very unique. Beautiful ice and snow sculptures throughout as well as 5 uniquely designed rooms. We also stayed in the Artic Lodge in their "regular" rooms. The rooms were extremely comfortable with beautiful views of the Alta River and surrounding areas. The staff are very friendly and accommodating. The food was extraordinary as well at both Maku and Lavuu. The ice hotel room was obviously cold, but they supply sleeping bags that keep you warm and toasty. Bring a wool hat to sleep with so your head doesn't get cold.
The cost was pretty expensive, but most of our experience in Norway was expensive. I think that's just the way it is, so be prepared. Overall, it is a unique experience that is frankly worth the cost.

not quite there
The lodge is stunning and designed with high finishes. the glass floor to ceiling windows in the room are such a delight. The activities I went on (all bar one) were all amazing and well guided and so much fun, the guides were all really nice.
Beakfast was very basic and not what I expected of a hotel of this standard and price bracket. I thought some staff to be little 'brusque' and unfriendly. I asked for a kettle in my room for tea and was told to use the Nespresso machine without a pod. I specifically requested a room with a bath, and this was not booked, I was so disappointed as there was no steam/sauna/jacuzzi facilities at the hotel! As this hotel was SO remote and with no transport you are kind of reliant on them to supply these things. At the very least have ready and available massage therapists to call in. The restaurant was a very mixed feeling. First 2 nights I had a la carte (just 3 options ONLY) if youre a vegetarian just the one option. I was told this menu changes every few months. Third night I booked in for a tasting menu. Fourth night was told there was no a la carte options from that day and I had to a have 3/5 or 8 course tasting menu!! But I was due to go on a snow mobile that night so just couldn't eat that much. Over the course of my 4 days it was training days for many new staff. It was my very special birthday out there and I felt little to no effort was offered on their part. Their activities were very confusing and pricing and times were so varied I suggested a board for the customers to peruse and book themselves on ( I was told next week). There was a big problem with one expedition to see reindeer and Sami culture. There were 3 of us booked on and we each paid £150, we were all told that it was a reindeer sleigh ride so didn't think we booked onto the right thing, when I questioned at check - out I was met with a lot of hostility from Raphael. We were there for 1 hour and had a chat with Sami person then had coffee, there was absolutely no way this should have cost £150.

Good
Everything true to the photos.
Because of the location, it is difficult to eat anywhere that is not on-site, which is very expensive and very unhealthy. Very limited menu and options for vegetarians / dietary requirements is borderline, everything is heavily cooked in oils, butter, animal fats and rather small portions. Note, transport to and from the accomodation is also very expensive (up to $100 one-way).
