Area is scheduled to be demolished. Hotel had no staff available after restaurant closing till 3 pm the next day. Lack of nearby restaurants due to moving of city center 4km away.

The hotel is upstairs from the main business which is a very good restaurant and bar. While, it doesn’t look like much from the outside, the rooms are very nice, clean, and comfortable. like much of the town, the neighborhood around the hotel is not very exciting. if you want to eat in the restaurant, be sure to make a reservation since it seems to be the only place in the neighborhood.

The staff in the pub are the worst ever! The girls that run the hotel portion are very nice and stand in stark contrast to the bad pub staff. Room was very nice and we can recommend the hotel.

Lack of parking space
Only 4 parking spots for the whole hotel, so I didn't manage to get a spot. That meant to deal with parking for 2 hours during normal weekdays till 21, if I remember correct.

Hotel is centrally located, which is about a 5-8 mins' walk if you take the bus from the airport. Rooms are clean and the toilet looks to be newly refurbished. The hotel has a bar which also serves food that makes it really convenient if it gets too cold to go out. A very comfortable stay but the pillow needs a bit of improvement, it gets really flat after some time.

Ok hotel in center of town.
Hotel in the center of town, above a good pub (where you check-in, no real front desk). Room was a bit old, dirty carpets and walls; bed and bathroom clean though. Not far from bus stop to airport, or free bus to train station. Breakfast was pretty basic but not bad.

For a little town like Kiruna, this hotel is very nice, clean, well-cared for, and it sits right on top of the Bishop Arms bar, the best and most happening place in the city. Highly recommended.

The room was warm, clean and spacious with a very comfortable bed. It's location in Kiruna is perfect. They also had a terrific breakfast buffet in the morning. I have to preface my next statement by mentioning that we were checking in on January 1st. I was surprised to find that the Bishop Arms does not appear to have a front desk. I checked in at the bar on the 1st floor and when I wanted to check out there was no place to leave my key card. Still I would highly recommend the Bishop Arms to people who are not put off by something a little different,

Well I never actually stayed here but as my money was paid and I was asked to write a review I thought I should. I booked my accomodation and booked “non refundable”. This was my First mistake. This was several of months prior to “staying”. I had flight changes by the airlines twice which resulted in me not having 2 nights now, only about 8 hours. No one in their right mind would fly so far to stay 8 hours total. I informed hotel (via Expedia) of my situation and it fell on deaf ears. As this was a non Refundable booking they said go away more or less. I am not saying that they should of refunded booking however they could of provided some excellent customer service and attempted to help... by getting room rebooked (at least 4 months notice). So I lost several hundred dollars and never saw this hotel. I certainly would not stay here on a non refundable booking as airlines change dates and times regularly and you will NOT receive help from hotel. If you stay here book a flexible room or shop around to a cheaper place.

Room was very different from the pictures on the website, much smaller. Also, was given twin beds when I had requested a double bed in the reservation. Looking though the pictures again, I believe I was given a single room with an extra bed, as the room was so small. Also, tve door giving access to the hotel, supposed to be opened with the room cards was not working and always left open, giving any person access to the the hotel corridors. Overall was a good stay, but could have booked a better hotel for the same price.

Good spot for a night or two. The lobby/check in is in the pub on the first floor. Great service in the pub even though it was very crowded. Pretty sure this is the only real "pub" in the area. Room was basic but comfortable and clean. Good wifi. Good breakfast. There isn't a traditional lobby though and the pub doesn't open till later in the day, for me that meant a 6 hour gap between check out and train departure on a Sunday when no other businesses are open in the area. Something to keep in mind if you have a similar itenerary.

Good hotel and pub
The hotel is nice and there is a decent chain pub. The advertising made it sound as though it were a locally owned pub/hotel, but it is still pleasant. There was virtually no interaction with staff, but everything was efficient. The rooms are nicely renovated - fairly recently from the appearance. Some rooms (like mine) have windows opening into the galleria (mini-mall) which is odd and doesn't allow for opening the windows to cool the room or circulate air, but it isn't a major issue. The provided breakfast and dinner, purchased at the pub, were both good.
