Lyngen City Hall

Upgraded to an Ole Wang Garden cabin at the last minute. The "house" was huge with 4 bedrooms. Kitchenette was well equipped although the utensils and pan were well used to the point the non stick pan was somehow scrapped by some sharp metal utensil (i don't know who/why anyone would think to use metal to scrape a non stick pan). Location is slightly off as you got to drive a few km inward on almost a fairly narrow 2 way road near to the end of fjord. Would be great if there were clear skies during the northern lights season but we had cloudy days, rain and day with strong gusts of wind so strong that the whole cabin creaked every time the gust of wind hit the house. Breakfast is standard buffet which supposedly is only included if you stay in a hotel room and not one of the apartments/cabins.

I had a wonderful stay in Sommarøy! The peaceful setting, stunning hill views, and soothing ocean sounds made it truly special. Watching the Northern Lights right from the hotel was magical. The staff were lovely and welcoming, especially the ladies at reception, and the shuttle service to and from Tromsø was excellent. I left with beautiful memories and would love to return!
