Fjord Hotel Alta

Hotel in Alta

Fjord Hotel is a small family hotel in Alta — built on Norwegian "tillit" the same quiet trust that lets mountain cabins stand unmanned for hikers and honesty boxes sell strawberries at the roadside.

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.

They have 4 lovely cabins next to each other with beautiful nature views. The very comfy bed is surrounded by glas windows and a glas roof and we were able to see the northern lights at night from the bed as we were staying here in December. The cabin itself had a kitchen with everything you need to cook, but the local pizza place will also deliver food, if you can't be bothered. We did book also a 3 hour horse carridge ride with dinner included which the lodge offers on their website. You can even book it online. We can highly recommend a stay here and also the sledge ride. Oh, and the jacuzzi on the terrace is super romantic!

FAQs about hotels in Alta

What guests said about Alta:

Scored out of 10, guest rating 10

Alta has a lot to offer.

Alta has a lot to offer. It is best to get a hire car so that you can drive around the local area, and along the stunning coastal road. In winter there is the Sorrisniva Ice Hotel (always worth a visit each year as the theme changes). Also worth a visit is the Alta Cathedral, Alta Museum (which also has a great coffee shop and gift store). We enjoyed driving West to Kåfjord where there is a beautiful little church, and by the Kåfjord bridge, there is a bomb crater from a Tallboy bomb dropped in WWII that missed hitting the Turpitz battleship. A few kilometres further around the coastline you come to a quaint village of Talvik that also has a quaint church (which interestingly, is fastened to the ground by a long cable as a previous church was blown into the harbour many years ago!). Also heading south towards Kautokeino, takes you up through Alta gorge - a truely spectacular drive through a twisty road between icicle clad mountainsides - absolutely breathtaking. Opposite the Alta River Camping, is the Sami cultural centre. There are lots of winter activities available in Alta from dog sledding and reindeer sledding to skidoos and snow shoe walking. Lastly, if you are wanting aurora, Alta is by far my preferred location, as it has clearer skies on average than other locations that are further around the west coast of Northern Norway - if you have cloud, you won't see the aurora. I have been to Iceland, Sweden, Finland and other parts of Norway, and Alta definitely comes out on top for seeing the Northern Lights. There are plenty of locations that you can pull up your car to safely view the Northern Lights, with the beautiful mountains of Alta all around - just perfect!

We chose Alta, the City of Northern Lights, to "Hunt the Aurora Borealis". We were NOT disappointed. It was a magical experience. Lots of beautiful northern lights shows. We did a number of activities: night time horse drawn sleigh ride and dinner; king crab fishing experience; tour of the Ice Hotel at Sorrisniva; dog sled ride at Holmen Husky. We stayed at a canvas dome in GLOD, with the most amazing guide to see the Northern Lights. We stayed in a forest suite at Holmen Husky. The place was incredible and the way they treat the dogs will completely change your thoughts on the sport of dog sledding. They were the sweetest and happiest dogs I've ever seen. We stayed at Flatmoen Natur Lodge, which is a family owned and ran farm. Each lodge has their own private, outdoor jacuzzi so you can sit outside while the snow is falling or hope to catch a glimpse of the Northern Lights.

Lovely cute place which is not too commercial.

Lovely cute place which is not too commercial. Great place to do a northern light run, Go for a smaller tour size of 7-8 ppl instead of 50 sized. First its very safe even if you are going solo and also you have a more personal discussion with the group and also much more personalized attention to see the stars and the northern lights.

I came for the museums and some quiet relaxation, and got plenty of that! Lovely town with good food and lovely people. The weather in June was grand... nice during the day, cooler at night. A fan was all I needed to be cool enough to sleep. The local taxi company got me around town with ease, though their is a bus I never tried out. I sadly do not speak any Norwegian, and I was able to get around with ease.

Alta is a town that is difficult to reach in winter, so it is good to make reservations as late as possible to get a refund without penalty. Accommodation owners and tour operators will take your money and not refund you even if you prove that you didn't arrive in Alta due to weather (cancelled planes or planes that were unable to land).

Breakfast has everything you could need in the morning. The breakfast staff is really attentive and it makes you feel at home. It is the perfect small Hotel to give some quiet time to yourself and have a nice and deserved rest. Thank you very much for the Manager's and Staff hard work.

Very cozy and nice hotel at a beautiful location. The Igloo Hotel part is mind-blowing, so impressive I find hard to describe, the ice sculptures are just epic. Sleeping bags and the reindeer-skin plus mattress will be enough to make you warm. Both the dinner and the breakfast is top-notch, close to a fine-dining experience.
