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.

The hotel had probably the best iron I have ever used :-) Room was ok and bed was comfortable. The food in the dinner and breakfast was very Finnish in all of its pros and cons. Nothing fancy and felt a bit untidy but just good enough that you would eat it and continue your business with ease. Would not recommend for someone who is not able to walk a bit longer distances as some rooms are veeeeery far away from the reception

We have visited the swimming and sauna area several times. We usually come for a gold mining trip to Saariselkä area in summer and one day off from mining we usually come here to relax. Three types of saunas, nice showers and a normal pool with two jacuzzis. We have enjoyed the experience. The place is not like a five star hotel but in the middle of nowhere its very much enough and clean. Just what we need

I liked the Holiday Club Saariselkä. My room had everything that i would want including a kettle, good Wi-Fi. The bathroom was ok with a heated floor. Had a great meal of reindeer neck one day for dinner of the two nights that stayed here. The breakfast buffet was sizeable and good. Found the hotel most pleasant.

Loved our time, me and my wife took our 2 daughters as a xmas surprise and they loved every moment and still talk about it to this day. Was expensive but worth every penny! They really enjoyed the swimming pool to top off their days at santas village

Having stayed in many hotels and accommodation types in Finland all Of which were good. This one has been so bad. Customer service is absolutely terrible. Walking around in the cold trying to find a room with small children is a joke. However the hotel really don’t care. Will never stay here again and am so sorry I booked it.

Based on the price and previous reviews this hotel was in line with expectations as a 3 star type hotel We booked a suite in the hotel (not an apartment) and it came with a separate bedroom and living area. Twin bed in bedroom and sofa bed in living area The room was large and comfortable however some things to keep in mind to manage expectations 1. They do not service the room at all unless you specifically request it (presumably to reduce the environmental impact of doing a large amount of laundry) 2. The hotel guest areas and our room in general were quite tatty and not maintained to a high standard for example - skirting boards were not well attached to walls - bottom slide on our bedroom door was broken - screw holding shower curtain was pulled out of the wall - furniture was cheap and chipped in multiple places - shower room smelled badly of drains after day 2 of our stay 3. Food is what you expect at a cheap hotel - we only had breakfast in the hotel (they offer buffet and a la crate restaurants) - some comments on breakfast to align expectations - no real coffee machine (there was an urn with ready made coffee) - it did not seem an option to get a cappuccino - breakfast choice was OK but the general nature was cheap (cheap cheese, cold meat) the best not was the bread which was fresh and tasty While we were staying there was at least two tour companies operating from the hotel for their guests. This was kept a problem but expect breakfast to be busy before the days activities start at around 9 am Hotel staff were generally very friendly and helpful and spoke excellent English In general Saariselkä is designed and built to address mass tourism in Lapland. There are more private resorts away from the town so if you want more privacy and quiet then perhaps try those This town as a “mass tourism operation” is fine as all the services are ready to hand but don’t expect an “old town feel” - it’s a tourist town and nothing else The holiday club feels like the Center of this tourist industry so if you want a different feel for your Lapland experience then perhaps choose another type of accomodation As mentioned above the hotel served its purpose for us well and was more or less in line with expectations

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. We were three adults staying in a condo unit: full kitchen, dishwasher, clothes washer, warmer for boots and clothes. We had everything that we needed to stay and use the kitchen. The knives need to be sharpened though…

We stayed in the Kelotahti Apartments and they were perfect for our needs. We were a group of 10 and had 2 apartments. We were on an all inclusive trip with Santa Claus Trips which I would highly recommend.

Incredibly disappointed in this hotel. I booked through booking.com specifically as it had a pool. There is no mention anywhere that the pool is at an extra cost. For a family of 4 it’s €60. If I had known I would have booked alternate cheaper accommodation and then paid to use the pool. I have 2 incredibly sad children right now with an important part of their holiday spoilt. On challenging reception they informed me there was no manager present for me to address my concerns to. At 6pm I find this odd at best. The receptionist was cold and unhelpful. Totally acceptable if somewhere it had been stated it was at an extra cost. Added to this our room overlooked a building site where the work lights were left on 24 hours a day….it was bright throughout the night and not ok.
