Mannshausen

The Best Michelin Hotels for Seeing The Northern Lights

"Nestled in the Steigen Archipelago, the remote and breathtaking Manshausen Island is one of the best places in Norway to experience the Northern Lights. The main house dates from the 1880s, when the island was a traders' outpost, but the minimalist larchwood and glass sea cabins – many of which extend out over the water's edge – are as modern as can be. Whether it's through the floor-to-ceiling windows or wrapped up warm out on the terrace, the uninterrupted views of the arctic skies make it a prime location to witness the lights in all their glory. Beyond the aurora, the island is a haven for outdoor enthusiasts, offering activities such as fishing, kayaking and hiking – all in one of the most pristine and remote locations in Norway." - The MICHELIN Guide Nordic Editorial Team
