A Wonderfull Stay!
What an amazing experience! Our room was lovely with an amazing view of the glorious mountains. The staff was very helpful - we appreciated the 2 am wake up call to advise us of the Northern Lights. Breakfast was very nice as well.

The staff was very welcoming and jumped right on a problem we had when the shower flooded. They even gave us a wake up call to catch a glimpse of the northern lights. The food was beyond our expectations. We don’t normally stay at hotels associated to golf courses so honestly didn’t expect much but this place is well worth the stop over for the view, food and nice, really nice people. We look forward to going back and trying out one of the cabins.

Great stay at Hamar! The property is well appointed, breakfast was great, and the hot tub and sauna overlooking the golf course and mountains cant be beat. Wonderful place to see the northern lights as its away from the city and the gold course provides great views of the sky.
