Golden Crown - Levin Iglut

We stayed in a “superior” igloo. We did a snowmobile/reindeer sleigh ride excursion that we booked separately. Room was excellent - comfortable & cozy. The free breakfast was terrific, with a wide selection of items. Dinner was also excellent, and given the location, was reasonable in cost. Reviews complaining about the restaurant are from people that expect the Ritz-Carlton anywhere in the world. This IS above the arctic circle after all! We unfortunately didn’t get to see the aurora borealis, but just enjoying the beautiful scenery, the snowmobile tour & sleigh ride was very satisfying. We are planning on returning.

The Prime Superior Igloo gave unobstructed view of the snow glistened forest and faced due north for spectacular views of the Aurora. The Igloo was cozy and the decor was fitting for the setting. The staff were helpful, friendly and gave great suggestions for maintained winter walking paths. The set menu dinner was divine and the breakfast had generous continental and hot options.

Wow, what an incredible experience this was. We stayed here for 2 nights in early November and had the most amazing time. We went on an excursion on our first night to search for the northern lights, then were lucky enough that they were still visible on our return to the igloos. The igloos are located in a remote location, however we were aware of this before we visited, therefore got some items from a shop in Levi before transferring to the igloo. We also ate in the restaurant and enjoyed the set menu made with seasonal foods. The breakfast each morning was also equally delicious and had a good variation. Overall we really enjoyed our stay here, the staff were all friendly and helpful and we cannot wait to return!

Golden Crown is located on the South East side of Oy Levi Ski Resort. It seemed possible to ski back down to your room after a long day on the mountain, but getting to a chair lift or T-Bar is a challenge without a vehicle. The rooms were fantastic. Friends stayed in the smaller iglu and the amenities were fairly basic, but we happened to have the Jacuzzi unit and they do provide you with extras such as snacks, drinks of your choice and various other luxuries while you relax and enjoy the sunset or sunrise through the comfort of your nearly 360 degree glass iglu. This is a self service type of luxury stay. They do provide you with sleds to assist you with your luggage, which is extremely helpful. The sleds also double up as a chair to push someone around. Very unique touch. On the night we stayed during the first week of April, we were lucky enough to see the lights dancing in the sky. It was amazing!

Igloos are nice, although beds are two singles which is not great for a trip with your partner. The maid service is very minimal they didn’t even clean the floor in ours. Restaurant is a massive off put for us. Extremely limited choice. We asked for alternative choice due to dietary requirements and what we got was not great. We tried to discuss the cheque but the waitress told us ‘well you ordered it didn’t you’. Not great service but igloos are cool.

ENJOYED OUR STAY!! We were a total of 7 people and stayed in 3 igloos for 3 nights. The igloos were very spacious and although the temperature outside was 8 below zero Fahrenheit, it felt warm and comfortable inside. The breakfast buffet at the Utsu restaurant had a nice selection of food and the porridge was delicious. I was unable to participate in the outdoor activities due to a knee injury but the rest in my family enjoyed snowmobiling, and the husky and reindeer sleds. The glass walls are great for enjoying the Beautiful scenery! The highlight of our stay was enjoying the Northern Lights on our last day! We definitely plan on returning!

No mini bar they know igloo is located far out from city Need to have more restaurant or activities to do on campus Don’t just offer 3 course and 5 course menus. If I want piece of bread then what? I go out in city? Some suggestions: Have more restaurants on campus so people don’t have to leave and go outside Have a proper bar where people can sit and not actual to have bar behind reception Owner is trying to become 5 star igloo but does not offer basic amenities and that’s where it’s not good You pay 500-700$ per night and to spend more on 3 course 5 course is not ideal for everyone You need to have more drink:food options on campus. Restaurent is sooo small and falls along with reception. Bar is literally behind reception which makes it ridiculous. How about to have it separate place with proper bar tender? This place lacks employees to work for!
