Kiruna Travel Forum

I will go with my girlfriend in 16th august to this town. Now , we have only flight tickets and seeking for accomondation, could you help me ?
thanks a lot

What I readed in this pages, Jarnvagshotellet is the best price/service etc ? thats right ??

DO you know this one accomondation ??

it looks like good and the price for a doubleroom is 550 sek/night that includes bedlinnen.

Järnvägshotellet is a classic in Kiruna. It is next to the station so it means going up a hill every time you want to shop etc. and it also means train noise of course (but not too bad). I have never stayed there but it looks quite cosy.

As I said in your mail, do not stay in the STF hostel, it is full of odd characters and not that clean. I have never stayed in this hostel but it looks much nicer: http://www.yellowhouse.nu/startsida.htm

The second link you provided is to a housing company which has holiday flats too. I guess lots of temporary miners live there too and the location is not the best even if I'm sure it's OK...

You could also stop a couple of days in Abisko National Park: www.abisko.nu

Thanks a lot for your answer, I have the last question. Is necessary to make hotel reservation ??? We will choose your approve hotel Järnvägshotellet. Is anybody going there too ?? We can give meet .))
Thanks a lot for all

I would make a reservation. Lots of tourists come to the Arctic in summer, not just for the midnight sun in June but also to walk the famous trails etc. so it might be crowded.

thank you sooo much, i added you such a friend ...
Is Anybody from here who is going to Kiruna Lulea Narvik or Gallivare ??
We can go for coffee .))

Sadly not this year - I love the place. The road and railway between Kiruna and Narvik pass through the great Abisko National Park with the famous Lapporten - Lapland Gate valley.

What is better ?? Take a plane from Arlanda directly to Kiruna, or take a plane from Arlanda to Lulea and than go by train to Kiruna ? is this way by train any interesting ??? thanks

Not as interesting as Kiruna to Narvik. It's quite a long journey with lots of forest and moorland.

You can spot reindeer and moose from the train of course...

Sjalen,
When will you return to Kiruna or this country ??? I would like to come again in winter.

No plans yet I'm afraid.

I would like to help you such a you help me with Nord Sweden I am making my homepage on this server but it take a lot of time and I must work too .)

Don't worry! I'm looking forward to seeing your pages when you have enough time :)
