8/10 Good

It is the only restaurant around so you are eating every meal there. Given the remoteness, I think the hotel can do better at offer more services (yoga, art related things, etc.).

Nice hotel in a quiet area
S, 6-night trip

6/10 Okay

It was a nice resort, sadly the weather wasn’t great so we couldn’t explore like we planned. It was quite difficult to walk around due to icy and slippery paths and roads, we would have hoped these would have been gritted to make it more safe. Limited menu to choose from for dinner although the food was very nice.

Very friendly and helpful staff! Beautiful view from our cabin!

Absolutely beautiful view from the room. The room layout was just stunning, what a experience seeing the northern lights from our bed!
Rebecca, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The location, the hotel, and most especially the staff are awesome. I had dinner at the hotel’s restaurant ( Oct. 19th) and there 2 ladies and a gentleman who seems genuinely happy with what they do and they made me feel at home. The same goes for the front desk the next day when I checked out. It is rare for me to leave reviews but I am glad I made the decision to drive and stay with Malangen Resort. Plus, Auora Borealis gave me 2 separate shows on top of that.
Angie, 1-night trip

Great scenary of Fjord and sea like lake
JONG HYO, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Beautiful resort in a beautiful area. Stay but bring your own food. Restaurant is beautiful but lacking in even basic pub food. You are there for the views. Most of the amenities were out of order and seemed a little worn down.
John, 2-night trip

4/10 Poor

Limited and expensive food options. Front desk is a bit rude. Didn't see great northern lights. Camp Nikka is easily walkable and don't deserve the extra charge
Gan, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I participated in three different activities- snow showing, Sami culture and dog sledding - and each was very well organized, stimulating and fun. The area around the resort is excellent for walking. The staff are exceptionally helpful and welcoming Overall, an excellent place to visit.
brigid, 4-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Incredible pace in a spectacular natural setting, about 1.25 hours from Tromso. Our fjord front cabin was spectacular- each day and night we woke to breathtaking views ( traveled in winter.). We saw the northern lights from our multiple balconies and the large windows in our unit. Everything was beautifully appointed. It is, however in a remote area tucked amidst mountains and fjords.! If you go, note there are no stores or on premise food purchase options except the restaurant. Also, it is not possible by Norwegian ABC laws to have a social or class of wine outside of the main hotel. BYOB, snacks and other provisions from Tromso ior elsewhere! It is a perfect and magical getaway! Thank you to the resort staff for making our stay truly memorable!
Ulrike, 4-night trip

10/10 Excellent

really love the design of the cabin but i feel that the kitchen can be cleaner and better maintained. Overall, i feel that the whole cabin is very clean and neat. I would stay at malangen resort again for my next visit
Jeffrey, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Over our expectations, beautiful place, great customer service. Highly recommend
Stephen, 4-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great trip! We chose this place to be able to see northern lights and we could see right from our apartment. Staff is very friendly and tried to accommodate lot of our requests. The beds were little springy and not super comfortable though
Piyush, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Liked the location. Away from the bright lightes and big city of Tromso. This is also a potential downside because it's quite a drive along snow-filled roads from the airport.
John, 3-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Outdated property. No wifi, no tv besides 3 Norwegian stations. Temperature in unit was either freezing or 30 degrees Fahrenheit Far from all activies besides premium priced resort activities.Restaurant overpriced with small portions. Rented premium 3 bedroom sea view for 14 days, only stayed 5 and rebooked another hotel in Tromso. Resort would not give refund, blamed tv and wifi on "owner" of the cabin. I would not recommend to anyone. It was a horrible experience with staff smiling at me while they insulted me telling me i should enjoy nature while only having a few hours of daylight, or telling me to learn Norwegian to watch the 3 available channels, and suggesting i should read a book. Didn't even have a smart tv to cast to, though without wifi probably did not matter. Felt like i was back in the 70's with this outdated property. Do yourself a favor and book elsewhere.
John, 14-night trip

6/10 Okay

Average. Nothing special. Amazing surrounding and great landscape. Hospitality and guest relations absent. Limited menu. Polite staff but lack of empathy. Ordered steak and fries but there’s no fries, instead you’ll have THREE potatoes wedges. No induction of the property. Located 1 hour and 20 min from airport by car. Nearest shop is at 2 hours walking distance or 10 min by car. No option for take away items from the bar restaurant to your room. No help with luggage. Sent a message to the reception prior arrival mentioning my partners birthday and asked to organizing something special and never received a response, had to ask the waiter for a celebration plate after the meal in front of my partner. Asked to cancel an excursion booked less than 2 hours before due to sickness and been denied as would charged me anyway. No shop inside the resort. Overpriced for what offers.
Giulia, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Lovely and remote.

Lovely remote location. Friendly staff. Dinner very tasty and reasonable value. Excursions are a bit pricey. Good location for Aurora especially if they are from the south which they were for us. Fantastic show (March 23rd 2023) Be aware that the hotel organised bus to airport is at fixed times and meant we had 4 hours at the airport which is currently being extended and the international flights are form a big temporary structure. A thoroughly unpleasant experience which the Hotel staff should have warned us about.
Richie, 3-night trip

6/10 Okay

Beautiful views. Restaurant food was only ok and there are no other restaurants within 1.5 hrs. Front office staff is mediocre and inconsistent depending on who was there. There are no phones in the cabins so there is no way to communicate with the front desk except by email or walk the 100-150 yards in the snow to get to the front desk. No internet except in the lobby areas. Transportation option to/from Tromso is also very limited and expensive. Taxi each way is $180-220 US.
