I booked a very last minute / 1 month away for New Years package, which was very very expensive. I Thought because it was last minute, however I spoke to some others on the package that they paid only a bit cheaper over a year in advance. The building is nice, but the rooms are really like a lodge or dorm. Very small bathroom, very small bedroom, very low quality TV, wifi barely worked in our room (we were at the end of the wing), no ammenities etc. The daily food was good some times but I feel like they tried to be super efficient just a bit too much. Meaning the same food would be on for a couple days. Bread was a bit stale after a few days.. which may just have been that it was new years and things were closed. It was a bit unorganised and people didn't really know what was going on for the first day or two, but then things started to flow. There was lots of downtime which we didn't really plan for, and given the internet was a bit poor, made it hard to watch netflix for example. It was a really unique new years eve experience and the redeeming quality was the staff, even though they seemed to a lot of different jobs, were all very pleasant and tried their best. We also met a bunch of other people who we shared some good experiences with.…

Travelled as part of a group of 10 in January 2019 for 4 nights for an activity holiday. The hotel is very isolated which is nice, with all the activities nearby although the husky farm is about an hours drive by snowmobile which were both great fun. Temperatures were very cold at -23 to -28 but we were well wrapped up. Our local Finnish guide was excellent and gave us the correct equipment when necessary and made sure we were all ok. The food in the hotel was basic but very good including bear one night and plenty of fish. After the activities the hotel sauna and indoor and outdoor jacuzzis are available from 16:00 - 19:00 each day with dinner served at 19:00. There are also options to book saunas, Jacuzzis etc through reception which I did on a couple of occasions. Staff were very good and attentive. Especially the owner. I will have fond memories of this hotel and holiday and would like to go back again doing summer activities. Recommended.…

Visited during summer. Amazing destination with wild nature all around. Perfect place to go hiking as the pine forests around are dry and easy to walk. Rented a rowing boat to see the lake. With a short walk, you can reach a small connected island with is all sand - beautiful beaches! Wild blueberries and lingonberries grow everywhere. Unfortunately we were there too early and they were not yet ready to be picked. Rooms would need some renovation, age shows. But luckily this is an outdoors destination.

Stayed as a group of 10 part of a organised single holidays for 4 days which was long enough the most exciting activities were included with opportunity to pay for extra other activities to fill our free time, sledges are permanently available for free with a nice safe hill for their use. Room Was very nice with all amenities one would want from a hotel room I am usually a very bad sleeper but here I slept really well. Food is very limited set menu but alternatives can be arranged if needs be I had pork offered on barbecue night as I don't like the salmon on offer. Breakfast is very basic and unadventurous but for me personally my needs were covered but you like a fry up, for breakfast not going to happen. The hotel spa offers a wide range of jacuzzis, massage treatments and saunas. If you like nightlife this is not the place to be the nearest (very small) town is a taxi ride away I didn't visit it but I believe there's not much there. The staff are all very friendly with very good English they will always go out their way to help you if they can. Highly recommend if you are after a quiet active getaway.…
