We enjoyed our stay here but it's important to remember that this is the budget option for Abisko - it's great value of money for this part of the world. I think there have been a number of improvements to the hostel in the last few months. The new sauna block means there are new ground floor showers (even if... More

Mel, Tomas and Andreas are very warm people. Value for money. The dog sledding was awesome. However on the night we were there the heating was minimal. still it was an experience to remember. Will definitely return.

I stayed in the hostel approximately a year ago (March 2011). This place is the best value for money in Abisko where everything is expensive. The family who run the hostel is very nice & helpful, the room is quite clean, and you can borrow boots & coverall for free. They also provide some packages of activities that you can... More

I have been to this place twice, and I look forward for yet another visit! It is a marvelous place both for summer treks and winter northern lights hunting. The place is decent, but cozy. The facilities are clean, even if the shower area (shared) requires some mending. The staff organizes wonderful additional attractions (dog sledge; night treks etc) but... More

I recommend this accommodation for people that want to go Abisko. Decent price in that area, friendly and helpful hosts. Abisko is awesome, in general, but especially for northern lights,2 of 3 nights we had them and they war quality.

This is a great place to stay at if you long to see the lights but are on a budget. It's a classic hostel accommodation, you get what you pay for. The room was spacious with a large table which was good. No wardrobes, but then again who needs a wardrobe for a couple of nights right? No sheets provided,... More

Location: The location is just near Abisko Ostra railway station. Get down at the station, cross the railway track and walk 200 meters to the direction opposite to where the train is heading (assuming that you take the Stockholm-Narvik night train!). Walkable distance to the lake and super market. Staff: There is no reception but we found a note on... More

My boyfriend and I were extremely disappointed with this hostel. It is in such a beautiful location with it's own husky rides, but no attention has been given to the hostel at all. The rooms in the hostel have no locks on them. This made us feel anxious about our personal security and that of our belongings, particularly as our... More

This is a great value budget hostel conveniently located near the Abisko Ostra train station (when you step off the train immediately turn to the right, follow the track for 150 meters and cross over at the railway crossing. The hostel is a double storey red building which will be on your left when you cross the tracks). We stayed... More
