Pretty much a hostel with private rooms, staff were very friendly and helpful but everything else felt a little bit run down, the pillows are probably 10 years old. Kitchen areas are decent and bathrooms are ok. Decent value for the price but could be a little cheaper

Abisko Guesthouse and Activities
(room #5)
Booked this place as it was the cheapest in Abisko for 1 night.
Few minutes walk from the train station and grocery store.
Our room was small but it was OK for 1 night.
Room should have a mirror, and charging outlet for the bed above.
Not so good sound isolation, hear people from the kitchen.
There is a kitchen with all you need.
Shared bathroom and toilets.
Basic place and I could stay here again.

My boyfriend and I had a fantastic stay at Abisko guesthouse. The place has all you need and the staff is very helpful. We wondered a bit why there was no sorting of waste, and its difficult to figure out who is in charge of the different activities.
The surroundings are incredible and perfect for chasing northern lights on the nearby frozen lake. During our stay they weren't visible from the window.
Thank again for a great experience, we wouldn't hesitate for a second to come back.

Very basic facilities. Room is very tinny not enough space between upper bunk bed and ceiling. No place to sit in the room. Reception staff was very friendly and helpful. Gave us lots tips and guidance. Given us lots of useful information. Even after checkout, reception allowed us to use the communal area in the afternoon before we travel - this is a fantastic facility/service to guests.
4.0
This hostel is noisy and often marketed as a hotel which leads to people treating it as a hotel leaving messes everywhere.
The tours offered through them are a joke and nothing more than a money grab.

I liked the location (very close to the train) and certain aspects of the property (the communal kitchen/living room was cool), but I had two major issues. The first is that the website is misleading and does not clearly disclose that you will be sharing a bathroom; I booked a private "superior queen room" and when you look at the pictures for it, it includes a bathroom and doesn't indicate that it's shared.
The second issue was the bedding. It was incredibly cheap and uncomfortable and both my partner and I woke up with neck/back pain, which never happens to us in hotels. It was because the property provided one (1!) uncomfortable, flat, small square pillow per guest, and a very thin mattress pad. Given that the cost of this room ($300) was on par with what other more traditional hotels in the area charged for private rooms, it was a bad value. It would cost all of $100 to upgrade the bedding in the room we stayed in to be comfortable and not cause physical pain.
It's a shame, because I liked talking to the other guests and the location of the property, but given the combination of the misleading information about the bathroom, the most uncomfortable bedding I've ever encountered, and the lack of competitive pricing compared to private rooms in nicer facilities nearby, I can't honestly say that I'd pick this particular property again.

Facilities of this guest house are not enough. No washing machine. No restaurant. The opening hours of the reception is limited (until 18:00).
Small bugs are around in the kitchen and in the bathroom.

The apartment was big and clean, and the staff at the reception were nice and friendly as well. We also had a friendly and knowledgeable driver whom fetched us safely from Abisko Guesthouse to Kiruna Airport.
It would be perfect if both shower gel and shampoo were provided, same for sugar as well, though these are small matters and nothing much to complain about overall.

We stayed as a family here for three nights. Our main purpose was to do hikes nearby and hope to catch the Aurora.
It is located within walking distance from the Abisko Ostra train station.
Abisko guest house provides all the facilities of a clean room with a common kitchen and dining area. There is a grocery very close by for you to get food etc. I don't think there is any restaurant here.
You can rent warm clothing sets and this is very handy if you are going to be out for a long time in cold weather.
The staff are also very helpful in guiding you.
If you plan to do any day time hikes, then most of these trails start from Abisko Turistation. No problem if you have a car. If you don't, it is about 3 km from the guest house. There is a nice walking path to Abisko turistation, but you have to factor this extra distance in case you are planning hikes from there.
The guesthouse staff also help you in case you want to do different guided hikes, aurora tours etc.
There is a paid guest laundry facility also available.
We had a very enjoyable stay here. Thank you.

Highly disappointed, I feel I was ripped off for paying so much for this “hotel”. This was a hostel not a hotel. Shared bathroom with 3 other rooms, not comfortable at all, had to make your own bed, didn’t feel clean or safe. Hotel also cancelled our excursion 1 day before with not good reason.

The guesthouse was very cozy and offered good activities. My niece was really very happy driving the snowmobile and seeing northern light on the lake.

The location is great.
It's near the train station, supermarket and walkable to the lake. The Aurora sky station is 2 km from the guesthouse.
Apartment room is simple, no frill but fully equipped with kitchen, living area and 1 bedroom.
There is a common area with kitchen, washing machine as well.
There is a lot of activities which arrange by the guesthouse. We chose Aurora BBQ. It's lovely BBQ dinner in Sami's hut behind the guesthouse. Once we finished we chased aurora together and found it.
Staffs are lovely, kind and helpful.

Great place to stay in Abisko. You can borrow overalls to stay warm for no additional fees. Would recommend this place!

This is a wonderful place to stay in Abisko. From many activities, the free winter clothes which are essential, the sauna and the location makes this an ideal place for viewing northern lights and also to explore the area.

Very spotty staff coverage/not inside office at end of season, they rely on making phone calls ( expensive if foreigner/ 80 SEK for me) but very friendly, accommodating if they were present.

The premises were pretty good for the area. Personnel was always available even by phone when needed and always there to assist. Providing great activities (tried snowmobile and totally recommend it).
Best perk is that you can use for free equipment for the cold like ski uniforms, boots and gloves while staying there.

The staff was very helpful and friendly, especially when our ski mobile pickup went wrong (not through their fault at all). The kitchen was well equipped to make our own meals.

Room was not properly cleaned. Given times of Corona it felt like quite a health hazard. Common areas lacked paper and disinfection. Extremely loud guests made it impossible to sleep. Overpriced. Will not visit this place again. Very disappointed.
