The apartment we had was perfect for 2 people. We spent one night but would have been perfect for a longer vacation. The resort is very easy to find and just 15 minutes drive from Saariselka. The sauna in the bathroom is functioning well, it also had a timer so we had it on when we came back from Aurora hunting and we could warm up before bed.

I had an amazing stay at this hotel! The breakfast was fantastic, and my room was a charming little cabin with a picturesque view. I particularly enjoyed the complimentary sauna, and my room had all the amenities I needed. The staff were exceptionally sweet, nice, and friendly, providing all the information we required. The check-in desk, located in a charming bar that even offers karaoke options, providing a fun tone right from the start.Plus, the proximity of restaurants to the cabin made dining out incredibly convenient. I highly recommend staying here for the great atmosphere, convenient location, and excellent service!

If you're going skiing, Saariselkä is a good option and you can stay there for a week, for example.
If you are looking for the Northern Lights, maybe 3 nights would be ok, but you you should pray for good weather, with clear skies, and , of course, for the aurora to appear.

Saariselka has everything you need for a winter lapland trip! The ski resort is at walking distance, there are more than three DMC's to chose from when booking trips, there are plenty of restaurants and pubs. THe supermarket is big for a small town and offers all you need. Note that you can't buy wine in the supermarket but there's a small store next to it called Alko where you can pick up a bottle of wine.

It is a small and quiet town. Air is very fresh. Trees with snow on it are very beautiful. You can have many snow activities here. If you stay several days and the weather is good, you may have opportunity to see Aurora.
Bus is very convenient. You can go from Rovaniemi. You can also take bus to Ivalo and Ivalo airport.
Restaurants are very good in this small town.

It is a very beautiful place, but it is expensive. I just stayed for one night in a beautiful cabin. I think that the food is ok and also there could be some more interesting things to in the Hotel do when it gets dark.

You can do many activities - skiing, biking, hiking, relaxing, observing, and enjoying Lapland nature. You have a big chance to see the Aurora Borealis. There is a very comfortable and understandable system of day huts and wilderness huts with essential equipment in and out of the national park — an excellent place for people who love nature.
Everything! This place is magical! We absolutely enjoyed our 4 nights stay in Saariselkä. The accommodation was more than perfect! I fell in love with the place and this apartment. Everything about it was so cute, decorated with taste and comfortable. All commodities reachable by a short walk was the cherry on the top. Kristiina has been on the top of our booking (booked a year in advance) and provided great tips and recommendations within the booking process. I can not recommend this accommodation enough : it has been simply perfect!
Ilkka has been very kind, helping us to get the best experience for our holiday in Lapland.
The apartment is very comfortable with lots of services: kitchen (with lots of tools to cook), bathroom (large and clean), private sauna (perfect after a whole day in the snow).
The apartment position is perfect because it is only 10 minutes from Saariselkä (where there are supermarkets, coffee, resturants and shops) and it is also isolated from any light pollution: we were lucky to see the Northen Lights just outside the apartment!
Location is close to the entrance in Saariselka coming from the main national road. Very good for cross-country skiing access, but you need to take the ski bus if you are there for the alpine skiing. Everything else is in 10' walk range. Good restaurants and pubs nearby.
Very clean and decent apartment, with all you need for a very comfortable stay. Excellent insulation, very nice electric sauna - very well equipped kitchen. Nice TV and great variety of channels and we watched the winter Olympics :-)
The apartment is exactly as advertised and more!
Great location, convenient and well equipped! Easy car park, shops, restaurants within walking distance, yet quiet and in the middle of Lappish nature.
Clearly, the hosts are passionate about Lapland and want to share this with their visitors. It made us feel very welcome and as if we were home, away from home.
The hotel is situated nicely and the rooms are large and quiet, each has a balcony, too. The breakfast is delicious and the buffet arranged according to the needs of the pandemic situation. We have been at the Riekonlinna various times and this time was as pleasant as expected save from some details during the breakfast.
-The experience of being in the middle of nature and experiencing aurora boreal in addition to many other winter activities
-The staff was incredibly friendly and will drop/pick you up anywhere, very accommodating and open to help
-The hotel is efficient and well thought out. We loved having a sauna and jacuzzi
Everything is well equipped for "live" in saariselkä.
Location is also great ! 10min walk to supermarket. We acrossed on the frozen lake in front of apartment to go shopping. It was great experience!
The owner is really helpful and gentle and quick response.
Highly recommend!!
Lovely little chalet ,warm& cosy ,my 2nd stay at saariselka in Sopppuka chalet . Parking just outside with a car heater point which was a bonus with temperatures down to minus24degrees. The chalet is well kitted out ,close to restaurants, tour companies & the ski bus stop .
lovely cosy log cabin with sauna and log burner and well equipped kitchen. perfect for a relaxing snowy get away. location perfect as close to Saariselka but still looked as if you were in a snowy wilderness. can see Northern Lights from bed.
I loved everything about this trip. Your staff was wonderful and the front desk ladies were more than helpful! Breakfast was wonderful, as well as getting on the bus daily was so easy. I would suggest this hotel to anyone.
The hotel is at a good location and it is easy to find. The rooms are comfy and excellent beds, clean bathroom - also bathrobes available. Stable wifi. Friendly staff at the reception. No extra fee for parking.
Nice warm house very close to cross country ski trails and about 3 km far from Saariselka. It's very we'll furnished and have a nice sauna inside. A charming and peaceful place, perfect to visit Lapland.
The location was perfect for our needs: away from the Saariselkä center, no neighbors too close. The property was a great size for two persons, one extra room to keep our things in it.
1. Spacious clean cozy home
2. Well equipped kitchen
3. Good location not too far from the saariselka city
4. Great host
5. Dryer for clothes was very useful
This was our 2nd Stay with Holiday Club Saariselka and we loved the convenience and the comfort of staying in the apartments of Holiday Club Saariselka
