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

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.

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

Norwegian Country
Yggdrasil Farmhotel is about 50min drive from the Tromso airport, it overlooks a fjord and is not hard to find. I rented the tiny house for myself, I had some activities planned but was looking for a quiet time out I could do some thinking and planning for 2024. The place is warm and cosy, the breakfast is excellent. The tiny house lacked some utensils for cooking and I was not able to have Wifi within which made me sit in the public areas to complete some work. I loved the woodfired Sauna. The weather was a challenge while I was there so I spend more time inside then I anticipated. It was a pleasant stay if you want to be away from the busy little city of Tromso.

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 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).

Great place if weather would have co operated
Not a place we would normally stay but for northern lights seemed to be the best choice. It snowed everyday while there so no Northern Lights. We drove on snowy roads to fill time so in retrospect would have stayed in town but not due to unhappiness with the retreat. Food was very good and breakfast was artwork. Resort arranged a dog sled ride and took us there, Everything is ala carte so be prepared to pay for anything you desire outside of the great breakfast. Evening meals were outstanding. I would go back for opportunity to see Northern lights.
