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 :)

Wonderful farm stay
The most incredible farm stay with delicious food, lovely views, options to sauna/swim/yoga and the added bonus of being able to pet all of the animals! This was an amazing end to our Norway road trip and we would highly recommend staying here, especially to book in for dinner too.

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!!!!

Super friendly hosts (including the cat and dog who come check up on guests to make sure everything is alright during breakfast or dinner). Amazing environment, with a lot less light polution compared to the city of Tromsø. The rooms are simple, but all the main requirements are there, and are very clean. The reception/breakfast area was styled very homely and also has an amazing view overlooking the water and the mountains on the other islands. I would very much recommend this place to anyone visiting Tromsø, who is travelling by (rental)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

It’s cosy, tidy, well decorated and in a good location. I really enjoy staying here. Love the food especially the creamy Norwegian fish soup. Hope I can visit again shortly.

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.

The hotel is in a very nice location. The staff were friendly. To get to the hotel, you have to walk up the hill. Unfortunately, the path is not illuminated or gritted. In addition, a large hole with a drain is not secured, so unfortunately on the day of my arrival I unsuspectingly stepped into the snow-covered hole in the evening and injured my leg. The room is mediocrely equipped. No wardrobe (a disaster for 2 people with 2 suitcases), only three hooks on the wall, not enough towels. The breakfast was unfortunately very monotonous. The same thing every morning. At dinner the side dish was always dry small jacket potatoes, fish and meat were unseasoned and the portions were very small. There is a lot of room for improvement.

Amazing location surrounded by mountains and seas. Staff are friendly and responsive. Clean rooms and facilities. Only downside is hard to get to without rental car, so must factor into cost. Otherwise, great experience not to be missed when in and around Tromsø

Jessica

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 place to stay if you want and need something quiet. I was with my daughter and we enjoyed our stay at Yggdrasil Farmhotel! Friendly, nice and amazing owners and staff! Nice, clean and warm cabin! Delicious food! Beautiful views! Moreover, we had nice little hiking trip to see the Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis) with a guide on the hotel premises (to the mountains). That was something unbelievably beautiful and unreal!

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

This is a special place on earth, and Maria is a wonderful hostess and owner. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. She prepares farm-to-table fare that is delicious. However, we were visiting in March, and at that time of the year the options for a vegetarian is rather limited. Other than that, which is certainly understandable, this was a great place to relax, unwind, snowshoe, and ski (rentals in Tromso).
