    Everything was good!

    The view on the sea was beautiful, the room super comfortable and the breakfast very good. We really enjoyed the common rooms with armchairs and see on the sunset

    My check in started at 1pm only but I had arrived at 12 noon. It was fine but It would have nice to let me in at 12 noon into the common areas atleast :-/ It was cold to wait outside. Basically the place locks you out till you a get a pin-code at 1pm.

    I was alone....though my room did not face the lake but it was still very nice. It had two open areas with comfy sofas and two massage chairs which I used a lot. The breakfast was amazing. The views were incredible. The fact that you can always have tea , coffee and a biscuits on no charge was really nice. It was only 20 mins walk from centrum which had amazing views. The gold explorer for the northern light do a pick up directly from the house Both ladies at the reception was very sweet.

    There wasn't much to do in that exact location (e.g. restaurants or bars). I wish they had some snacks available or more front desk hours for us to buy snacks and beverages. The front desk hours are limited not that we were in our room much.

    The facilities were great; the views were beautiful. They had an excellent breakfast spread as well. It was easy to get into the facilities and the hotel room. Taxis were also easy to get from the location. City center I'd say is walking distance from the location as well.

    This is a really cosy and comfortable guesthouse. Everything is decorated beautiful. It is more a Villa with guestrooms. The breakfast was awsome, once again the space was decorated tastefully.

    Hosts are not on site all the time, but it didn't seem to matter. I didn't see a kettle in my room, but there are two available, one on each floor at their own station.

    Wow, lovely big room, the host likes her decor, she has filled the place with beautiful things. It's a small place and busy, for good reason. The morning spread was also fantastic, catering for the Europeans but also eggs and bacon for me. The nicest place I've stayed so far on my trip. And the view out the dinning room windows...fantastic

    A message about how to get into the building was sent via phone app a few minutes before expected arrival time - we were not informed in advance that this would be the process and as we did not have the phone on we were left outside the building unaware of how to get in. Door between the bedroom and bathroom would not readily stay shut and the escutcheon had a screw missing.

    Ambience and pleasant interior design with a variety of places to sit at different levels, the view, very good breakfast.

    Everything was perfect.

    If I could give this place a 20 out of 10 I would!! It is the most gorgeous place I have been to. The breakfast had a lot of options you could think of, from breads, cerals, hot food, cold meats, fruits, to name a few! The lady who owns the hotel is the most amazing woman I have ever met. She helped me with booking taxi's, getting the bus timetables for me, to even heating up my dinner that I had purchased from the supermarket. There were massage chairs that I sat in for hours as I went in the low season of Winter and there wasn't many people staying there. The views from my room were absolutely gorgeous and easy to view the Northern lights from when they made an appearance. The whole place was so cosy and comfortable, not to mention very warm inside the whole place. There were amazing chocolates on the bottom floor which were also to die for, the bed was so comfortable and soft and I could of laid in it forever. I am recommending Altafjord to everyone I know and I definitely want to come back for Midnight summer.

    Due to the small size, the bathroom did not have enough space to place items on.

    Very athmospheric and homely place, our room had an amazing view over the coast line. Our room was huge and cozy, only the bathroom was a bit small, but functional. Amazing breakfast with a huge choice of food. Free parking is a plus. Owner was super nice and supportive. Ideal base for a day trip to the north cape.
