If you guessed Finse 1222 (1909) in Hordaland, Norway, you guessed correctly! The entire Star Wars crew stayed at Finse 1222 in 1979, including Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, and many local extras. The setting for the ice planet “Hoth” in The Empire Strikes Back was even filmed outside the hotel. Each year an anniversary celebration called VISIT HOTH takes place at the hotel. Today, Finse 1222 continues its role as a refuge for those who wish to explore Norway. In addition to the unique cinematic history of this hotel, guests can also enjoy the hotel’s ideal location between two national parks and protected areas.
