- "Everything you need for a getaway vacation in the same place: comfy facilities surrounded by nature, beautiful woods and lakes around. Hiking, sauna, cold water bath, northern lights, authentic swedish food. We had an amazing experience!" - "The staff is fantastic, and Granö is a very beautiful place!" - "It's a really nice location served by public transport (though not that frequently) to get away from Umea city. There were a small number of nice trails for easy and medium hikes. Breakfast prepared in baskets were lovely and I liked that you could choose, mix and match what you wanted each day. The cabin was great, fairly compact but had everything you need and a great view of the river. The wood burner sauna was great way to spend an afternoon though it was a shame the water was already freezing over so we couldn't cold plunge! Definitely seems like there is more to do in the Summer months, though we enjoyed the snowy landscape. 2 nights was the perfect amount for November for a little walking and sauna maybe. Bakery across the road is delightful as well. Lunch and dinner service also great though dinner is quite expensive! Staff were very nice."

- "Everything is perfect! We always plan our journey through Sweden to pass Lilla Hotellet. It is such a warm and friendly hotel and you will want to come back! The food and atmosphere is like being with family where there’s an awesome homecook taking care of us." - "A cosy little hotel only a few steps from the station in Vilhemina. We arrived on a Monday evening when nearly everything in town was closed so they have a buffet available (although we did end up getting some great Thai food from a food truck!). Excellent breakfast buffet in the morning. A really comfortable room, friendly staff, and a homely feel."

Short walking distance to grocery store, Sami museum and beautiful small church. Relaxing sauna and swimming. Great breakfast!" - "Staying at the Icehotel in Sweden was a fantastic experience! The beautifully crafted ice rooms and stunning sculptures created a magical atmosphere. We stayed in the warm part of the Icehotel in a cozy cabin lodge, and it was a fantastic experience! The lodge was perfectly clean, beautifully designed, and provided a warm and comfortable retreat after exploring the icy surroundings. The atmosphere was peaceful, and the location was ideal for enjoying all the amazing activities like dog sledding, snowmobiling, and ice sculpting. A must-do experience for anyone visiting the Arctic. Highly recommended!"
