Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

Pleasent hotel with beautiful view Royal Ruka situates just beside the extremely beautiful hill of Juhannuskallio. The view from the restaurant and hotel rooms is marvellous. The staff is very friendly, the athmosphere warm and nice - and the food in the restaurant is super delicious. Especially I could recommend the Lapland dinner with local specialities.

We just had a perfect three-night fall-break with my wife and daughter at Royal Ruka. It happened to be quiet season: there were only few other customers with us and we got full attention from Irmeli and Krista. Service was very good and attitude so positive. We felt more of visiting home than a hotel. Breakfast was very good and dinner was splendid. We had lapland buffet on thursday night. Delicious dishes made at the restaurant of local ingredients. Various fish and cold-cuts for starters, a soup in between, reindeer and vendace for main course, cranberries for dessert. Every piece was so good and it was plenty! During the days we did snowboarding at Ruka, also walked on top of Konttainen hill for sight-seeing. Nice outdoors activities. Hotel room, dining area, lobby, area with fireplace were all cosy and clean. Nice view to hills. Sauna is great. Thank you Irmeli and Krista, we warmly recommend your hotel!

This private-owed hotel is a gem. The service is very friendly and personal. Our room (311) did not have any neighbors whatsoever, and through the window we could see forest. There is a jacuzzi at the sauna/spa. The breakfast buffet is not as big as at the chain hotels, but you won't leave the table hungry, that is for sure. We'll be back :)

Beautiful view from the hotel, great location, skibus stops near the hotel. But the best was Hotel Manager Irmeli, she made us feel welcome and special, as i believe she made every guest feel. Food in the restaurant is delicious. Room was big, nice, comfortable and clean. Would definitely stay there again! =)
