Hola: para ver auroras boreales hay que ir en invierno , o sea en la época que vas a viajar. Tengo entendido que desde Kirkenes (y por lo tanto desde el Thon) salen las excursiones para ir a verlas. Mi hijo vive allá y dice que a veces inclusive se ven desde allí. No hay en todo Kirkenes mejor hotel que el Thon!

Dear gust We are sorry for the late reply, The airport is approximately 15 minutes by car/taxi or 12-14 kilometers from the hotel. There are normally busses corresponding to all arrivals from SAS and Norwegian. The exceptions are for Widerøe coming from smaller places around the area. The bus stops right outside the hotel and the stop is called Thon Hotel Kirkenes. A taxi costs between 150 and 300 nok one way depending on the day and time of day. Let me know if you have any further questions, Kind regards, Linn at Thon Hotel Kirkenes

Just remember everything closes on Sunday. There is a Shell garage nearby and it has a small store. There is also a small supermarket with very limited lines. Both are open on Sunday.

If you are cruising on the Hurtigruten Cruise line try to book the tour through the cruise line. Here on Trip advisor those of us answering your question are only people who have stayed in Kirkenes at the Thon Hotel. We cannot give you information about your particular itinerary. You can probably book the tour through the hotel as well. Contact the Thon with your question. BTW enjoy the trip it was awesome. We saw the Northern Lights in Kirkenes!!
