My six year old son and I stopped 2 nights at Camp Ripan at the end of an "Aurora Hunting" trip to northern Sweden in March 2012. I chose Camp Ripan because of its location on the outskirts of town (Kiruna) in the hope that any auroral activity would be less affected by the city lights, and also because from... More

A group of 13 of us stayed at Camp Ripan overnight before moving to the ice hotel. We arrived around 1900. I booked direct through the hotel and also booked a table in the restaurant. Food in the hotel was lovely, prices are reasonable for the area. Staff were very helpful and friendly. We were all placed near one another... More

We were advised that Camp Ripan was a decent place to stay and that the accomodation was equivilant to a four star hotel. What a joke if this is 4 star then I don't know where they get this from. Mildew in the shower room, no teaspoons or any other cutlery for that matter. When we asked reception for teaspoons... More

We had a fantastic stay at Camp Ripan! Our first night we were blessed with an early check-in, (one couple was upgraded), great dinner, and the northern lights. Each activity we planned was fun and exciting. One of the people in our group broke a leg 2 weeks prior and the staff were more than accommodating with respect to the... More

Arrived in the evening and left the following day so only a very short stay. Separate reception and rooms were infact cabins around 50m from the main building which also had a bar, shop, restaurant and small snack shop. It was increadibly cold -30C during my stay so even the walk to the cabin was rather uncomfortable and the swipe... More

Nice cabin, all the space you need. Had enquired whether the room had a kettle, was told no so bought and took a travel kettle only to find one there.... Staff were all nice, although some more helpful than others. Restaurant nice, but expensive. Only 6 choices of main meal and they don't change the choices very often. Booking recommended... More

Have stayed here twice and has improved a lot in that time. A few years ago it felt a little tired but more recently they have renovated and now the rooms are fresh and the restaurant excellent. Never had a problem with the staff. Would have given it a 3or4 after last trip but worth a 5 now. More

Stayed here for one night when doing a Fjällräven Classic hike and was suprised by the high standard of the room we stayed in. Nice bathroom, a small kitchenette, good beds and a flat screen tv. Service at the resturant was very good even though the place was packed with guests ! More

When we arrived at Camp Ripan i was very sceptical. The hotelrooms are old, renovated cabines, and from the outside it din't look nice at all. On the inside it had all the facilities you could expect from a good hotel room. We had a family room, and the kids could sleep in a small room within the cabine. In... More
