We loved everything about the resort.

Staying in a resort situated on an island in the middle of a frozen river in lapland is in itself magical.

Location and general vibe

Stayed in March 2024

For dinner is it a little bit difficult, then you have some gluten/milk intolerance - you must go somewhere else...

The Breakfast was in a very nice atmosphere and the quality was very good. You get there everything what you need for breakfast... only thing was, that it will be a little bit late (starts from 8:30!), but you can order an early breakfast (we don't need it!)... all in all it was very nice!

I loved everything - but please note there isn’t a full restaurant/bar on site, is a lovely breakfast, small dinner offering (we were completely fine with as out all day on activities) but the small town 10 mins drive has few bars and some nice restaurants if you wanted some more options.

Beautiful island location in a peaceful natural setting by a river, beautiful room, great friendly staff.

Run by lovely, really helpful and down to earth people. We did the ice plunging in the river, which was done professionally and safe. Good selection of the continental breakfast and had a nice homely hearty dinner, which we booked in the morning.

Breakfast was limited.

Beautiful chalets on a private lake about ten minutes drive from the city. Great sauna and ice swimming.

If you dont have a car its expensive to go even 10 km to Santa Claus Village.

View of the hotel was amazing

Stayed in February 2024

No

The location of this hotel is very good. Although it takes ten minutes to drive to Santa Claus Village, the environment is quiet and there are super beautiful scenery. My daughter really likes this wooden house and wants to stay here forever. Every afternoon from 4 to 6 o'clock, she can also enjoy a free Finnish sauna. The service is also very friendly, and the breakfast is also very delicious. Our family will stay here again next time we come

Public transportation to- and from the island is not great. I recommend you either plan activities with transportation incuded or rent a car. Hotel staff can help with transportation.

The hotel is on a small island approachable through a bridge, it is picturesque. There is a "kota" (traditional Finnish building) restaurant where breakfast and dinner is served. The rooms are well equipped and confortable.

Meals needed more options. Thermostat hard to manage.

Location was very beautiful! Staff were very approachable and easily fixed any problems that came up

Stayed in January 2024

You can’t reach the island without a car/taxi.

The room is very modern and very cosy. There was a nice sauna available. The island is small but very magical! Great sun rise and sunsets! The staff was very helpful and always available for questions.

Glorious experience in a winter wonderland.

When arrived waited for 20 min for receptionist to appear, non of phone numbers were answering. Cleaning done only on request, when requested only beds were made up, not changed, towels were not changes, toiletries were not renewed. There are two saunas, real one and electric. Real one, as were told,take several hours to start, so they dont start it. Electric sauna should be booked in advance at additional €50 per person, although on the website it says that its included in room charge. Dinner is only fixed menu, so u cant choose,need to book it in the morning.

Great location 'in the nature' on tiny island, 15 min drive from not so pretty town of Rovaniemi (aprox €34 uber to Rovaniemi). Cozy restaurant. Nice rooms, although we didnt get any nice view from the window, just facing window of neighboring house. New,very clean. Nice breakfast.

Nothing

Stunning location. Easy to reach Rovaniemi. Nice food. Excellent hosts (Anni and Kyle).

Stayed in January 2024

Food could of been a little better, not much options. But it didn't effect our stay.

The setting was absolutely beautiful. Gorgeous snow and scenery. Very quite area. The rooms were stunning, had everything we needed. Very friendly, homely feeling. Its a family run hotel, the lady who was working the days we were staying was so friendly and helpful. She went out of her way to chat to our kids about there days trips and what plans they had when she would meet them outside. Taxis are about 30euro from the hotel to Santa Claus Village & City Centre.

No public transportation so if you don’t have a car you need to take a taxi.

It was really nice to be just outside the city with natural surroundings. The rooms are very basic but comfortable and the sauna is a big plus.

I can't even think of one thing I didn't like.

I loved everything about this property. It was such a unique stay. The place was very clean.The views are incredible and the staff was outstanding.

Everything was perfect

Everything was perfect in every way. We arrived late in the evening and they had our cabin nicely warmed up ready for our arrival. The staff were all really friendly where nothing was an issue. They went above and beyond.

I loved everything! The only thing I would have liked would have been a sauna and the lovely lady who runs the hotel is looking into this.

The location of the property was picturesque and breathtaking. The sauna is a wonderful and we did not have to share with anybody and was able to access it at anytime we wanted by just notifying the hotel via WhatsApp.

It's one of the worst places I've ever stayed at, paying this level of money. As a result, we may need to check in early since we are arriving by plane. However, even though they have empty rooms, they charge an hourly fee for early check-in. But this is not a problem either. The rooms at the hotel are nice, although they have some problems. It is in a bad location and they help with transportation. To go to the city center, you have to pay an average of 30 EUR one way. One of the interesting issues is that they offer dinner service, but it is open buffet; Let's say they cook a meal like a salad and get paid for it. You can eat this meal unlimitedly, or you can eat in the city center by paying 60 EUR round trip. The choice is up to you. It is realy terrible. I paid 30 euros per person for a meal like potato salad. There is no bar or any activity you can do in your location. They have a small sauna and it is free and only open between 5 and 7 pm. If all the rooms come, they cannot use it. You may be going for a holiday, but you have to wake up in the morning because breakfast ends at 10 o'clock. And it is better to go to breakfast at 8 o'clock. They never renew what's left for breakfast. You can't drink hot tea, and whatever food is left may have to be gnawed like a mouse. There is a television in the room that you can view with a magnifying glass. If you get bored of the activities that are not available at the hotel, you can watch television with magnifying glass. A hotel that is definitely not worth the money they charge. Frankly, if I rented a house and stayed there, I would have more options and pay much less. On your check-out day, they don't hesitate to leave a plastic bag in front of your room, giving you the message to leave as soon as possible.

nothing!
