Hotels near Straumen

The apartment has a really nice view over the Fjord. Relaxing in the whirlpool after a strenuous day in the mountains has to be among the best possible ways to spent one's vacation. The place itself is clean, the interior really modern and equipped.

The location was perfect for exploring the Lyngen area. The Lodge was cozy for just hanging out in, the staff very nice and professional, and the food was quite extraordinary.

Views, provisions, jacuzzi and sauna. Plenty of wood.

Modern spacious apartment, great views, balcony facing the sea, clean and well kept. Great customer service!

Absolutely brilliant location - if you're looking to get away from the world and experience fjord, northern lights and generally northern Norway above polar circle at its best, it will be hard to beat this place. And we've been to Norway, including Tromso area, many times over the last ten years, so I hope we know what we're talking about ;-) This hytte (cabin / chalet) has all the amenities you could wish for - all the kitchen utensils you'd expect, cozy bedrooms, warm and spacious bathroom, even boot room to dry off your clothes and shoes. All spotlessly clean. Hot water and heating faultless. Bed linen and towels were included which is great if you travel from abroad and have limited luggage - we usually had to pay extra for these on our many Norway trips in the past. And if you're familiar with camping sites in this beautiful country, I'm happy to report that no, you don't operate your hot shower using coins ;-) I can't recommend highly enough using outdoor hot tub - well worth paying little extra to enjoy external hot tub jacuzzi - we were incredibly lucky to see a good 10 minutes show of northern lights in the sky while sitting inside hot bubbling water while it was freezing (you'll be very warm in the tub, don't worry!), a moment to cherish for ever. As for the northern lights (if that's what you'd like to see), as we know from our experience over few Norway trips, you're pretty much able to see it from everywhere providing it's dark (night time), the sky is clear (no clouds) and that Aurora actually appears on the night. We saw it from the patio of our hytte and were able to take decent pictures. If you want to take a very professional pictures, you'd be better off making a short drive away from village lights - many spots on the way from Svensby ferry, 5-10 minutes drive.
