Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is ideally located right in front of the Cathedral of Northern Lights in the center of Alta, offering a charming experience. The rooms are spacious with comfy beds and a big bathroom, and the service goes above and beyond. However, the rather boring suburb surroundings are not appealing. The dining options are broad and satisfactory, with a barbecue available.
