Hotel Somo is simple, safe, and run by consistently kind and proficient staff. My room was quiet, had everything I needed, and the complimentary breakfast was nutritious with staff happy to adjust the spread. The front desk team and servers showed genuine warmth and Christ-like care, which was refreshing. I also appreciated the reliable airport shuttle, which spared guests from overpriced taxis. The hotel’s hot tub is spotless and offers a stunning mountain view—perfect for catching the northern lights. On top of that, profits support local Christian missions, and the abundance of live plants throughout the building gives it a welcoming feel.
On the downside, the property is very dated and in need of remodeling. The location, while safe, is a tough 20-minute walk from town and right in the middle of the fishing industry, which not everyone will enjoy. The restaurant food is generally unhealthy—most items are fried and heavy, with only salads and the occasional pan-seared fish special as lighter options. Cakes and pastries dominate the displays. The hot tub, though beautiful, is very expensive, and smokers often gather at the entrance, making it unpleasant to enter or exit the building.
Overall, this place is safe and community sensitive.
