This is the best hotel I have ever stayed in Europe. Extraordinary breakfast buffet with varieties, free coffee and tea throughout the day. Very nice and helpful staff. It is almost at the front of the sea and can be viewed the northern lights easily. From the breakfast area, there is very impressive panoramic view to Fjords and sea. From the hotel bed room you may request for ocean view, which is recommended. There is a kettle and tea in each room. Room was very clean. The restaurant in the Thon Hotel is very good. They serve vegetables, fresh fish/crabs and meat! The sightseeing tour bus stops here in front of Thon Hotel. I will come back again. I recommend everybody to try this hotel for a visit!

Amazing stay, lovely location, best place to see the northern lights! I did a lot of activities - Dog sledging, reindeer feeding, hunting for northern lights. I would recommend staying more than one night and also get a room in one of the Gamma cabins - it is out of this world. A fairytale place indeed.

The hotel is an older building but it adds to the charm. The bed is large and comfortable and the window can be opened. The restaurant downstairs has the best General Tsos chicken ive ever had! They have a dumb waiter for your luggage as there is no elevator

    Small town with great history.

    Small town with great history. It revolves around tourist, so thankful that the museum was open on Sunday. As I did not join tours, I find 3 days was more than enough. The tour agency for Russian border stated having tours at in the afternoons however did not approve my request and insist that I book a private tour or join the morning tour (together with the tourists from the cruises). I did not want as my mother just arrived from the cruise after 7 days, and she wants to rest first. I ended up booking a taxi and the price is the same. The taxi driver brought us to both Russian borders (old and new), let us spend time and help us take pictures. The price was standard (NOK1,600) for an hour. What is lacking is probably a tour guide to explain things. But that is OK. Kirkenes has a great view but lack good viewing points (well, I did not find any...). I found a randomly shared viewing point up a hill which was good but not the best. Must visits - Andersgrotta (Daily, 12.30pm tour, NOK300 per person), Borderland Museum, Russian Border, and see the pictures in town by Ellisif Wessel.

    There is more to see than you think, particularly if you are interested in history. We had a day to see the sites before taking the Hurtigruten Coastal Express to Bergen. We could have used a second day, or at least another half day. You need to be fit and a good walker because it's easier than using the local public transport. Things really worth seeing are the Borderland Museum, Savio Museum, Andersgrotta and Liberation Monument, the Russian Consult General Building and the protest opposite, statues, monuments and the Snowhotel. We had a nice meal at Surf and Turf.

    This town is not very inspiring.

    This town is not very inspiring. We came off the Hurtigruten Ferry and ended up having 2 full days here, because we had to wait for our transfer to Inari in Finland. It is a bit desolate. Few shops, or choices to eat. Suggest one day, and move on

    Small town geared for tourists, so everything is close by.

    Small town geared for tourists, so everything is close by. Mall, small grocery store, lots of restaurants and cafes and the taxis and busses all stop at one of the two main hotels (Thon or Scandic). 95% of the activities are at the Snowhotel or are run by the Snowhotel (but quite $$$ as you are in the Arctic). Bring plenty of layers and all your money.

    We stayed at the Kirkenes Lodge which is very conveniently centrally located. Easy walking distance to restaurants and shops. Walking through the neighborhood with very charming homes, kept in very good condition. It had the feeling of home. The war museum is very moving. Don’t miss it.

    Found this to be a much more interesting town than I expected. Driver of airport bus was excellent telling us about various things to do, which was great as we had limited time. His helpful advice meant we were able to do a tour of Andersgrotto (wartime underground bunker) and learn about what the citizens went through being caught up in the battle between the Soviet Union and the occupying Germans. We also enjoyed the museum, a tour through the amazing snow hotel, feeding reindeer and seeing the huskies, as well as wandering the town centre and seeing the excellent display of photos in the square. However, we were between seasons for some of the other tours that would normally be available so it would certainly be possible to need a few more days to do some of those other things at another time (eg, northern lights in the winter months and dog sledding, plus some other excursions available only in the summer months).

    I was very satisfied with this hotel. Great location close to the shopping centre. The option to have complimentary coffee at the reception is great, anyone who likes coffee will appreciate it! The staff was very kind, helpful, they let me check in a little earlier - I am so grateful for that! They also help me to call taxi driver, who dropped me to the airport. The Chinese restaurant is also tasty and at a relatively good price. Highly recommended!

    This is a 4* Hotel offering the standards you expect in Norway. Sparkling clean, comfortable room with at least one English channel, abundant and various breakfast, good restaurant, professional staff, splendid location. It is a perfect option for a night before or after cruise. I have noticed that despite very good reviews, Thon Hotels don't get high scores(both in Bergen and Kirkenes). Definitely this Hotel deserves a higher score than 8.6.

    The expectations were high, but we were not dissapointed! What a gem. Very friendly staff. Very nice food. Very cosy cabins with comfortable beds. Our luggage was taken care of on arrival and departure. We were picked up in Kirkenes harbour and a taxi was arranged for us to go to the airport on departure. We were fortunate enough to see the Northern Lights which was the icing on the cake. All in all we had a perfect stay!

    Modern Apartment in Kirkenes fully conforms to the description. A perfect accommodation for short or longer (fishing) stays. Everything is present and in new condition. Beautiful view over fjord (Northern Lights-Ice Pilars) and mooring Hurtigruten. Supermarket at about 800 meters and center about 1,200 meters (walk) A friendly helpful ambitious host. For me a place I will definitely return to this year.
