Abisko Mountain Lodge, Abisko

Located some 90 kilometres from Kiruna and ideal for helicopter tours, cross-country skiing and husky safaris, this remote haven has been described as Sweden’s first genuine mountain lodge. Encompassing a small hotel and a number of two-storey rustic cabins that sleep four people, rooms in the main hotel building include twin beds, en suite showers and wireless broadband. Guests also have access to a spacious drying room for wet clothing and the restaurant Brasserie Fjällköket that serves up an array of locally sourced delicacies including king crab, salted Lofoten cob and fresh mountain berries. Here the staff are always on call for guests whether they want to order a coffee or talk about the day's adventures. In the lobby you can unwind after a day outdoors, or you can sit down and compare adventures with like-minded travellers, meeting new friends or read your book in a comfy arm-chair.
