Lapland theme with class and style sums this place up pretty well. And of course the picturesque views from the room and restaurant were the icing on the cake. I’m pretty sure this is the nicest place for many many kilometers.
We stayed in the small 12 room hotel, which was comfortable, clean, pretty and modern. The place also has cabins, but I don’t know what they are like.
Breakfast was simple but good and dinner was very nice. I would stay and eat here again.
Remote but worth the trip. Scenery is spectacular. Accommodations excellent in true Finnish style: comfortable, modern and unencumbered. The staff were extremely helpful and attentive. The food was excellent. There was lots to do. We had a lot to do. It was a very welcome change of scenery. Would do it again. Do bring warm clothes in the winter!
Thanks a lot, we revere it!
We have spent our new year vacation here with my friend. It was our first trevel to Finnland and I must say it is the best choice to go to Utsjoki Holliday Village. The transfer from airport was on time and last apprx. 3,5 hours. The hotel owners have met us themselves with a glass of sect and have gave us all information that we needed to have about our aktivities during the week. We have lived in a cabin (house) with our own sauna, fireplace, two bedrooms and a kitchen corner. The only thing that was uncomfortable is that they have no double beds, but it was possible to put two separate beds together. The territory consist of the restaurant were we have always had our meals, hotel building, separate cabins (houses) and a small building with all necessary equipment.
The nature around is very beautiful and inspirative. There is a salmon river direkt on the territory, you can have a walk along it. The place is very silent at all, only forest with rendeer farm is not far away and also a small village with supermarket and church 5 km from there.
We have got 2 guides who provided us with all equipment we need and information, also they were together with us during some activities. The food in the resraurant is on a good level, every day there have different menus, it was nice to have a tasty salmon there and rendeer meat. The Holiday Village has a family concept, you can feel it already on the first day. The owners spend time with guests with pleasure and tell very interesting stories about their culture and region. There are pretty enough possible activities you can book for every day, the best ones for us were the husky tour and reindeer safari. The dinner in a hut was also very cozy.
Thank you for your feedback, we really appreciate it!
As a group of 3, we stayed in one of the 2 bedroom cabins down on the river for 3 nights in late September. It was so cute!
In addition to the 2 bedrooms, each with 2 twin beds, you've got a nice bathroom, private sauna, spacious living room area, kitchenette and a table with bench seats. We had stopped at a grocery on our way so we had breakfasts in our cabin while enjoying our view of the river and all the fall colors.
Your choices for eating out are limited but the Deatnu Restaurant, on premises, is a great option. It was too cold to enjoy the deck but the restaurant is lined with huge windows to enjoy the scenery from the warmth.
We did not take advantage of any of the activities, but they did look interesting. We hiked along the river and just relaxed. Having a sauna right in the cabin felt very luxurious!
It was very cloudy while we were there, so we only saw the northern lights one night. It was very magical to sit on the porch of our cabin and watch such a special natural phenomenon.
Our only regret was only have 3 nights.
The personalized customer service that we experienced was top notch!
Thank you so much, we greatly appreciate your feedback!
We had a great visit in Village Valle, a hotel next to the Norwegian border! Highlight of the visit was the amazing scenery of River Teno and the hills on the opposite side.
We had a relaxing experience in the really cool ”barrel sauna” which offered a nice view to the river through the transparent back wall. Nothing more nicer than watching the boats go by while having a sauna and dipping into the refreshing water of River Teno between ”löylys”.
Also, the restaurant was great quality and we enjoyed a nice dinner and breakfast.
Rooms are super clean and modern. Also service is very good and friendly.
Highly recommended!
Thanks a lot, hope to see you again, maybe wintertime!
