The family room was very nice, but the fifth person was considered an extra bed and slept on a sofa. The hotel ground floor was great for watching the Northern Lights, and we saw them that night. There seemed to be a sauna in the bathroom, but we didn't try it as we didn't know how to use it. The hotel breakfast was an English breakfast, and the hotel entrance offered views of the ski resort.
We stayed in an igloo. Although it was cloudy and we couldn't see the aurora, we felt very peaceful and relaxed when we lay in bed and looked up at the sky and the surrounding environment. The receptionist was very friendly and proactive in helping us. When we took photos by the stove, she took the initiative to light the firewood, which added to the atmosphere.
Awesome service, the front counter guy is really nice and patient to help us in any quires. The room is clean with nice sea view. Feeling quite well to see the sky stars when lying down on the bed in the night and the morning sky is super beautiful. Plus, the hotel price includes free tickets for experience 365, we enjoyed a lot there. .
Hotelli oli hyvällä paikalla ja pysäköintialue takapihalla oli tilava. Huonekohtaista jäähdytystä ei ollut, mutta huone ei onneksi ollut turhan lämmin. Henkilökunta oli oikein ystävällinen. Aamiainen keskivertotasoa. Pieni miinus tv-kanavatarjonnasta, huoneessa ei näkynyt kuin kanavat 1, 2, 3, 4, Ava ja Sub.
The service here is quite good, the staff in the recee will give you some useful advice if you ask, room is really awesome, geting a nice view from the balcony. The breakfast is also good.
服务很好,房间有阳台,浴室,桑拿房。风景很好,周边有几个餐厅可以吃饭。早餐也不错
overall:
Definitely the best accommodation in Saariselkä
Geographically located at almost the highest point
We saw the unforgettable Aurora on the first night we stayed 😭🥺
And it’s really obvious! ! ! !
The hotel does not have much unnecessary light pollution
It’s just perfect for taking aurora photos with clear faces.
The room type we booked is a cabin in the building.
Highly recommend everyone to book this room type
The design of the building within the building is really comfortable.
There is also extra space for luggage, so it won’t be too crowded.
Large floor-to-ceiling windows allow you to easily see the entire snow scene
There is also a balcony where you can go out
There are also plastic snowboards to play with outside the door of the room.
Everyone has a smile from the time they check in at the front desk
The service attitude is super good!
After staying two nights we decided to book another night
This time I stayed in a glass house
It’s amazing though!
But I would recommend the cabin more
Oh, there’s more! Be sure to try their sauna
Super big, super comfortable and very reasonably priced
transportation:
I think it is more comfortable to drive by yourself if you come to Saariselkä. Although the ski resort, the entire town and the entire hotel are not far from each other, driving will make traveling much more convenient. It will not be difficult to drive on the way up, and you will see awesome scenery. The view, overall very convenient.
Breakfast: Sufficient portions, all you can eat salmon and various fish, together with beautiful views, the overall experience is very good
Dinner: The hotel provides dinner at the same place in the evening. I personally think it is worth a try. In addition to the a**osphere, the food is also very delicious! It is recommended to dine at sunset, everything is beautiful!
The room was old but clean enough, though the layout was a bit odd. The front desk staff were very helpful; we arrived early and they checked us in as soon as a room became available. If you arrive early and the restaurants near the hotel aren't open yet, the hotel offers breakfast for 12 euros per person.
Ми мали чудовий відпочинок на 3 ночі в цьому готелі. Бронювали будинок з каміном та сауною, щоб насолодитися тишею. Будиночки не новозбудовані але комфортні та затишні, є все необхідне для декількох днів проживання. Сніданки смачні, свіжі. Персонал привітний, доброзичливий. Якщо б була нагода відвідати Лапландію, не задумуючись забронювала б цей готель. Чудовий готель!
This time I went to Nordic to live in Scandic, the price is better, and the sanitary conditions are reassuring. The front desk service is warm, the breakfast is rich and delicious.
Very Good

Northern Lights Village in Saariselkä is an absolutely beautiful resort with an atmosphere that truly lives up to its name. During our stay, we were lucky enough to see the Northern Lights every day and almost every night, without needing to go outside for aurora hunting at all. Some nights, the aurora was incredibly strong, with vivid green and even red colors clearly visible. Seeing red aurora was especially rare and felt truly magical. One of the most unforgettable experiences was being able to lie comfortably in bed and watch the Northern Lights through the glass roof, right from the room. It was simply breathtaking and deeply impressive. The staff are friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help, with warm smiles that make guests feel well taken care of. The room is comfortable and thoughtfully designed, with heated floors, which is very nice in extreme winter conditions. On the first night, the room felt quite cold due to a power outage, so we had to sleep wearing warm clothes. On the second night, the temperature was much better and comfortable. Considering that the outside temperature dropped to around -40°C, the room may feel slightly cool at times, but overall it was still comfortable enough to sleep well. Bathroom amenities are mostly complete; however, toothbrushes and razors are not provided, which would be a nice improvement for a resort of this level. Other amenities are well prepared. Overall, Northern Lights Village offers an extraordinary and once-in-a-lifetime experience. Being able to see the Northern Lights so clearly and frequently, right from your bed, makes this place truly special. Highly recommended for anyone who dreams of experiencing the Northern Lights in the most comfortable and unforgettable way.
Santa Claus Holiday Village Hotel – A Magical Stay in the Heart of Lapland I recently had the pleasure of staying at Santa Claus Holiday Village in Rovaniemi, and it was nothing short of magical! From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warm hospitality and a festive atmosphere that truly captured the spirit of Christmas. The accommodation was cozy, well-maintained, and thoughtfully designed. Our cabin was spacious, featuring a private sauna—a perfect way to unwind after a chilly day outside. The room was well-equipped with modern amenities while still maintaining a charming, rustic feel. The location is unbeatable, situated right in the Santa Claus Village. It was incredibly convenient to visit Santa’s office, cross the Arctic Circle, and enjoy the various winter activities like husky sledding and reindeer rides. Plus, the breathtaking snowy landscapes made for unforgettable moments. The breakfast buffet offered a great selection of hot and cold dishes, including traditional Finnish options. The on-site restaurants also provided delicious meals, with a cozy ambiance perfect for relaxing after a day of adventures. The staff were friendly and accommodating, always ensuring guests had the best experience possible. Whether it was arranging activities or providing recommendations, their service was top-notch.
It's a really nice little cabin, a lot of space, and cozy warm space. It looks nicer than the pictures shown on the website. Great location too right at downtown of Saariselka, easy to park.
Seaside Glass Villa is a unique and memorable place to stay in Kemi. The hotel is conveniently located not far from the railway station, making it easy to reach, and it sits right next to a beautiful lake, offering a peaceful and scenic atmosphere. One of the highlights of the villa is the glass ceiling. While lying in bed, you can look directly up at the sky, which creates a very special experience. Unfortunately, during our stay we were not lucky enough to see the Northern Lights. The weather was extremely cold, almost -30°C, and even inside the room, the temperature felt quite cool. We had to sleep wearing at least one layer of warm clothing. The overall atmosphere of the resort is calm and pleasant. The view from the bedroom is stunning, with the frozen lake right in front of you and a clear view of the sky, which feels truly impressive and unforgettable, especially in winter. There are restaurants and a supermarket nearby, which is very convenient for guests. Despite the extreme cold, staying at Seaside Glass Villa was a unique experience, especially for those who enjoy nature, winter landscapes, and peaceful surroundings.
I caught the RV train from Helsinki, which was relaxing and a brilliant way to see the countryside. Arriving into Rovaniemi at 21:20, it was a short cab drive to the hotel,and with 24/7 reception checking was a breeze. Twin room 410 was well appointed, clean, and beds were comfortable; the room safe was easy to set and use. I appreciated the door chain for extra security and peaceful night sleep. Santas Hotel central location was excellent ,with the padestrian mall, shops, restaurants, and bars literally around the corner. Taxis could be found out front, and the santa/airport bus was only a short walk up the street. Though do pay attention to santa express pickup and drop-off times as they do not run that regularly. The buffet breakfast had something for everyone to enjoy! Front desk staff were very friendly and helpful, and the Christmas decorations throughout the hotel made my inner child smile.😊 There are many attractions, so be sure to give yourself enough time to experience everything. I will definitely choose to stay again next time I travel to Rovaniemi. Sha, Sydney, Australia. 🇦🇺

The hotel is located in the city center. Close to shopping malls and supermarkets. Nice breakfast and people. It's just 10mins walk to Arktikum Park where you have high chances of seeing the northern lights when the weather are clear.
The place is absolutely beautiful, only few steps from Ounasvaara Ski Resort. The Chalet was really good and cosy with amazing views from the windows and balcony. Our private Chalet had a second bedroom which we didn’t use as my daughter and myself preferred the first floor. We loved having our own sauna in the bathroom, great addition to relax and we enjoyed it sooo much! Breakfast was excellent with great selection, we loved the waffle maker! Staff were all helpful and pleasant. Location is excellent, not far from the airport, city centre, and Santa Claus Village. Overall, perfect Chalet, we would definitely recommend staying here, we had a great time!
This was a great location extremely close to the main shopping street. Room was well kept and clean, we were two adults and two teens and there was enough space for everyone. It is central to everything so all was a short walk away. All in I was extremely happy we chose this place for the Rovaniemi leg of our trip. There was a small patio as part of our room and it was so lovely to hangout there.
