Housed in a reimagined historic building, this urban hideaway, opened in 2015, features 57 spacious rooms and suites, each with unique, individually themed décor that celebrates the Arctic's mystique. Air-conditioned spaces are appointed with flat-screen TVs, Nespresso machines, plush bathrobes, and slippers, while private bathrooms offer invigorating showers or deep-soaking baths with premium toiletries.

Dining at the hotel's delightful restaurant is a celebration of Arctic flavours, with a healthy, energizing breakfast crafted by Finnish-American TV chef Sara La Fountain, featuring fresh pastries, local berries, and regional specialties.
