The property is old and needs a lot of repairs. The room was tiny— barely enough room for two people to move around. The tv did not work, nor did the electrical outlets on the desk. The beds were small and hard. There was never anyone at the reception desk except once. I wish we had chosen another hotel for our two-night stay in Kirkenes. I would not recommend this property.

This hotel is a disaster. It is dirty, loud, and the owner is rude and disrespectful. The \"breakfast is pitiful and in a refrigerator (pre-packaged) that the smell was nauseating.
Apparently the locals regard is as the SECOND worst Hotel in town and there are only 4! Derelicts hang out in the so called lobby and it doesn't feel safe. Pay a bit more and relax ELSEWHERE

My card and receipt was left on front desk as I checked in at 11pm. Room very basic but clean. Stay was terrible due to a very drunk person being aggressive and shouting and banging doors very loudly all night long. he was in the room next to me and kept trying to get in to my room all night. I had to put a chair under my door handle and felt really unsafe. No staff to be seen during this and no way of contacting them from the room. 4 x police came and arrested him after half hour of trying to get in his room. Awful night - couldn’t wait to get out of there. Didn’t see any breakfast anywhere and staff didn’t said anything when I handed my key in and complained.

Cheaper option in town centre.

Quite basic but much cheaper than other hotels in Kirkenes, so this was the reason for us booking this hotel. It is actually fine, close to the town centre and convenient for a nights stay before catching the ferry or going to the airport. We had an easy walk to the cruise ferry terminal. Free coffee is a nucellus bonus and our room was fine for our short stay.

The bed was comfortable, the room was clean and warm. There was no staff there during our stay and when they did show up, they were very unfriendly. Lots of people queued up to try and leave bags and check in. Since there are limited planes that arrive, you'd think they would be there knowing that there would be people wanting to drop their bags - especially when the footpaths are covered in ice. Breakfast situation was odd - we didn't try it after seeing it was a tray left in the kitchen (a converted motel room and pretty bleak). Forget asking for information about the town as there was no one there to ask. Common areas were a bit dirty. It was cheaper than other places in town but might be worth paying a little extra.

I appreciate that they left our room key out for us. We were there to sleep while waiting to go on a cruise the following day. I would say that most of the people who also went on the cruise stayed at another hotel but for the price and distances to the shopping center it wasn't bad. I wish the restaurant had later hours but there was a pub about a block away.

The property is clean and functional and the beds comfortable.
Nothing to do with the Hotel but when you plan to stay in Kirkenes make sure there is not a music festival. The noise outside goes on until the early hours of the morning. We were on an early flight out and got very little sleep. The other guests were very noisy as well. There is also pub/club next door with people making a fair amount of noise on the street.

What a Dump! Yuck!

This hotel was a total dump. The place is old, dreary and depressing. It is awful and we couldn't wait to leave. Stay elsewhere! The room was dirty and the fixtures and furniture were ancient and crappy. Bedspread was that cheesy shiny polyester that you don't want to touch. Bathroom was dilapidated, too. Shelf and tabletops were dirty and had some stray nails on them. Window sill was covered in dust. It's the kind of place where you don't want to go barefoot in the room.
The owner even tried to scam us by telling us that a taxi to the dock to board the Hurtigruten cruise the next morning would be expensive for the short 2 kilometer ride. He said he would drive us there for half the cost of a cab ride. We called the cab company to inquire about the price and they quoted us half of what this owner tried to charge us! Wow! Not only is this dump way overpriced but the owner tried to scam us by \"offering\" to charge us double the cost of a taxi to the boat dock.
We are amazed that Orbitz gives this place a 3.7 rating as nothing could be less accurate! Even by a stretch of the imagination, this place rates no more than a 1 or 2 out of 5. You couldn't pay me to stay in this hotel again.

Bare-bones, but good value.

We arrived very late but were greeted warmly. No elevator; however, our luggage was taken to a higher floor in a dumb-waiter. We left before anyone arrived in the morning; however, we left the key on the desk as instructed. The starkness of the hotel seemed to 'match' the starkness of Kirkenes.

Jeg var ute etter et rimelig overnattingssted, og var forberedt på enkel standard, men makan til slitent sted - det er ikke gjort mye oppgradering der siden bygget stod ferdig i sin tid. Det skal sies at det var rent på rommet, det er vel det mest positive jeg kan si. Videre er det midnattsol på denne tiden, men det var kun lette gardiner på rommet, som slapp inn mye lys. Det burde være selvsagt med lystette gardiner på et overnattingssted med beliggenhet i Øst-Finnmark.

Vindu var veldig trekkfullt (vind den dagen). Den ene senga stod rett under vinduet slik at man fikk trekken rett på seg. En annen sak var at senga stod rett inntil vinduet med gardiner som hang ned over panelovnen. I tillegg var det lett for att dyna kunne dekke til panelovnen, så det virket lite brannsikkert. Rommet var ikke egnet som dobbeltrom. Forferdelig spetakkel i trappa og etasjen over fra ca kl 22 til 23.30. Vi forlot hotellet etter en natt av to som vi hadde betalt for. Vi kommer aldri til å overnatte der flere ganger.

Skitten og sliten hotel

Ved ankomst ble jeg møtt av en resepsjonist med svært begrensede norskkunnskaper, og innsjekkingen var minimalt hjelpsom. Hotellet fremsto som gammelt og slitt, og det luktet sterkt av kinamat i hele bygget, da det ligger en kinarestaurant i samme lokaler.

Rommet var svært skittent, med inngrodd smuss på vegger, tak og gulv. Badet var dårlig rengjort, med løs toalett og kran, samt mugg flere steder. Røykvarsleren var teipet over, og sengen var både svært skitten og utgått på dato.

Alt annet i Kirkenes var dessverre fullbooket, så jeg hadde ikke noe valg enn å overnatte her.
