Babettes Hotel

Arctic Highway


Up the hill, this pleasant 15-room guesthouse is welcoming and impeccably kept. A change in name and ownership (and some much-needed renovations) has done the world of good. On the top floor is a pair of large family rooms (1600kr), accommodating up to four. It's in a quiet location and has a small garden where you can sit and relax.

It's often fully booked so reserve in advance.
