We had a lovely stay at this hotel. The rooms were wonderful and the staff very friendly. We unfortunately did not see the Northern Lights but apparently they were seen the night before we got there. The food in the restaurant was of a very high standard but very expensive and after two nights a bit too rich to want... More

My partner and I stayed at Ranga during the last week of January 2012. We found it to be extremely welcoming, relaxing and beautiful. The hotel itself is simple in appearance, but the rooms are well appointed. I suggest getting a room with a view of the river. We also had a room with a large bed and a jacuzzi... More

Great food but that is about it sadly. Reception staff were lazy, didn't want to help with issue with room and they did not give call for lights activity, so we missed them which is the whole point of the place so. When I asked why did I not get a call I was told that they have too many... More

We arrived later than expected and the staff organised a lovely meal for our coach party(31 people) We were given a very informative presentation about the aurora borealis...although very sadly they didnt appear for us! The room was clean with comfortable beds and too warm for us but luckily we were able to turn off the radiators.Even though our room,26,was... More

Stayed her for 3 nights from 7th to 10th Feb. Hotel was nice and personal with staff being very friendly and letting us know when the Northern Lights were out on display. Lucky to see them at 8.30pm and then again a magical display at 00.30 on the Tuesday night. There is no light polution as the Hotel is in... More

Unfortunately didn't see the lights - I don't think anyone had all week - and whilst hotel fine disappointed with the supposedly amazing breakfast. Waffles only there one day in 3, lot of choice in food had gone an hour into the 3 hour breakfast serving and what was left was not great. One day the hash browns were frozen,... More

Ranga is a very very nice hotel set away from Route 1 but very easy to find and signposted. We were extremely lucky to be given an upgrade to a deluxe room which had a comfy sofa and jacuzzi bath. Ask and you may get! The food served is of a very high quality as suggested by previous reviewers but... More

A peaceful and tranquil hotel but of very high standard. Excellent location for viewing the Northern Lights as no pollution from street lighting but be careful exploring around the hotel after nightfall - it's very dark! Food is excellent and staff attentive and the jacuzzis under the stars are to die for! Look out for the Polar Bear in reception... More

Fabulous hotel. My friends and I have just returned from Iceland and stayed at Ranga for 5 nights. We had booked for 4, but got snowed in and the hotel put us up for a 5th night at a significantly discounted rate. The hotel itself is luxury: clean, comfortable rooms, hearty breakfast (full cooked and continental buffet breakfast, including waffles!!).... More

Spent two nights at this hotel (27-29 January) in the hope of seeing the Northern Lights. Seeing Hotel Ranga on Vacation Vacation Vacation on Channel 4 last year gave us the inspiration to visit Iceland. It seems we chose the wrong weekend as the previous week saw a great display as far south as Northern England! We arrived quite late... More
