Lovely retreat and a great place to relax. Outdoor jacuzzi in the snow was thrilling, after a relaxing sauna. Amazing place to see Northern Lights!

Our stay at Yggdrasil was amazing! It's truly a unique place. The dinners are out of this world, chef quality local cuisine served in a spectacular setting. If you are looking for a relaxing get away you will have a hard time topping this place! My only watchout for first timers to Tromso is that it is a pretty good distance from the city centre and airport. 45 minute drive. The owners did a great job with our transportation needs, but you do need to plan ahead and schedule with them. We didn't use a taxi, but I would assume that if you can find one willing to come pick you up it will be a very expensive ride. That said, this is as charming of a place as you will find anywhere in the world and the scenery is breathtaking. The owners are meticulous when it comes to taking care of things. We will definitely be back!!!!

The staff were absolutely lovely and very friendly, which made our stay more enjoyable. The views were beautiful, and we really loved the yoga sessions, which were a highlight. The breakfast was delicious too. However, the room did not match the advertisement. The images used in the listing were misleading, showing a completely different cabin and portraying a more remote and isolated setting. In reality, the cabin overlooked others and lacked privacy due to thin/lack of curtains. The "queen-size bed" was actually two single mattresses on the floor. There was no WiFi, insufficient hot water for two showers, and the heating couldn't surpass 20°C, which was uncomfortable on cold nights. The kitchenette had no frying pans despite having a stove. Additionally, daily housekeeping, a pillow menu, and a pillow-top bed as advertised were not provided. While we did really enjoy our overall stay, the discrepancies between the advertised amenities and the actual room were disappointing.

Amazing stay. Staff were brilliant, accommodation was of high standard and very clean. Food was delicious and the views were breathtaking! We also really appreciated the transfer which was offered at a cheaper price than Uber/taxis. Only tiny negative was that we were quite cold during the night and couldn’t find a way to make the room a little warmer but it wouldn’t put us off coming back. We loved it here :)

Breakfast buffet spread was exquisitely presented/plated. Outdoor footwear must be removed in indoor areas. Car parking location was about a 100m walk but we were allowed to drive up to our block to offload/load our luggage. The outdoors is in total darkness and it was out there that we took photos of the Northern Lights. The only blip we experienced was our room heating being not adequately warm enough during our three nights stay there. The heating is manually adjusted by the boss on her iPad.

This is a simply amazing place. So traquil and calm, so quiet you can actually hear silence! The owners and staff are so friendly and go out of thier way to help you. the food on site is amazing, home cooked local delicacies. We ate moose, reindeer, salmon whale, lamb ( there are other options too) all booked and cooked directly for you. They were delishoius and served in a restaurant ( and upstairs bar) that have floo to celing windows looking across the fyord. Who needs pictures and TV wehn you have such a vista that changes every 30 seconds We took part in the night mountain treck in show shoes, ice swimming and jaquizi. We saw the northern lights on more than one occassion Despite fantastic transfer options offred by the hotel ( they are much cheaper than other operators) when we go back again we will hire a car to explore a little wider but this was only a minor point on such a fantastic trip I want to thank Maria and her team for making Paulines 60th Birthday trip so special. Thank you Best Wishes Garrie and Pauline

Cosy hospitality with home cooking and high probability to see northern lights (in Kvaloya) is how I would describe Yggdrasil. Very peaceful and relaxing, a nice contrast to staying in Tromso, though definitely recommend having a car.

A gorgeous place to stay, stunning views in all directions. Incredible and delicious hearty and healthy food with lots to choose from for dinner. The experiences do need to be booked separately was unexpected but was still easy to do and was a lot fun to do. Worthwhile renting a car for your visit as it’s an hour drive from the airport but the journey to and from Tromsø is very easy and it is amazing to be outside of the city and have clear skies for the northern lights
