GLØD Apartment Suite – GLØD Explorer

Our new and elegant Apartment Suite is ideal for anyone who would prefer quiet and peaceful days in the pine forest in the countryside rather than staying in the town centre. You can relax and unwind in a peaceful setting where life and the time keep the same pace. Breakfast is included.

Well-appointed

The suite consists of a lounge, kitchen, bathroom, sauna and sleeping alcove (reduced headroom) with space for up to four people. An extra bed can be arranged for person nr five. Note that the stairs up to the sleeping alcove is steeper than normal. The kitchen is well equipped with an oven, microwave, dishwasher, pots, utensils, cups, dishes and glasses and other things you find in a kitchen. The bathroom has a washing machine, shower, sauna and hairdryer.

The apartment has free Wi-Fi.

Location

The suite is located at Jordfallet in Øvre Alta, an area with a small number of privately owned houses in which families live. It is approx. 5 km from downtown Alta. The suite is located in a quiet area where you can explore the surrounding pine forest, the mountains behind the suite or stroll along the banks of the Alta River. One of the river’s best fishing spots, Forebygninga, is just 200 m away.

Base for tours

The Aurora Canvas Domes are the perfect place to stay if you are going on one of our tours. It’s also an excellent option if you want to explore the area on your own on by hiking, biking, snowshoeing or skiing.

If you are going on a trip with other operators, you can arrange to be picked up from the suite.

Transfer included if you book several nights

If you book two nights, free pick up from Alta Airport (or in Alta) is included. If you book three nights, we also include the return transfer (within Alta). This applies if stays are booked from our website. The offer of free transfers only applies when the stay is booked directly via our website.

Breakfast

Breakfast is not included in the price. We recommend that you upgrade your stay by booking our breakfast consisting of freshly baked rolls, delicious locally sourced spreads/toppings, juice/milk and freshly brewed coffee. Served in the GLØD lounge.

The suite is well appointed and ideal for self-catering. The closest supermarket is 3 km away. If you have a rental car or enjoy walking or cycling then it’s no problem to do your own shopping, otherwise we can assist you to arrange transport.

Dinner

We offer two or three course dinner every night. The dinner is served in the GLØD lounge. Our specialities are fresh cod and halibut, salmon, moose, reindeer and king crab. Dinner at GLØD must be pre-booked, by email, or online when booking your accommodation.

Options are Trasti&Trine, Sorrisniva, Sami Siida, Du Verden, Stakeriet, Brasserie Nord, Restaurant Alta , Wing Wah House and Brasserie Alta.
We will help you arrange transfers either with us or by taxi.

Sleeping facilities

The apartment has one bedroom with room for four people. The bedroom is comfortably situated in the loft, where the ceiling height is lower than in a normal room, making it very cozy, and the stairs up can be perceived as a bit steep.
