    private sauna
    expensive meals

    An unexpected sauna surprise

    We loved the enchanting experience of the glass-roofed cabin, indulging in a private sauna, and marveling at the stunning Northern Lights from our cozy bed. The staff was incredibly welcoming!

    The meals were a bit pricey, and a lack of options for lunch and dinner caught us off guard. The heavy menus didn’t quite fit our taste. a wider selection would be appreciated.

    Despite the limited dining options, I cherished the delightful meals and the stunning lakeside views, particularly admiring the snowshoeing and husky activities organized by the friendly staff.

    poor amenities
    slow wifi

    after a long journey, I expected a special welcome but received none. The room was nice, yet without kettle or hairdryer, how did I survive? WiFi barely worked, like seriously, how can you claim comfort without basic amenities? almost left a glowing review, but, you know, some things just couldn't let it happen.

    Awesome family adventure!

    We had such a blast hunting for Northern Lights together! The activities like snowmobiling to a reindeer farm and husky rides were thrilling. The staff was super chill and friendly, making every moment special. The buffet meals were delicious!

    breathtaking lights
    unforgettable experience
    limited food options

    Staying at this hotel was a delight for our family. We loved the aurora hunt by car, where we got up close with the breathtaking northern lights. The activities available, like husky rides through stunning winter scenery, offered our grown-up kids an unforgettable experience.

    In my wife's opinion, more food options would be great for families.

    unique accommodations
    northern lights
    poor bathroom amenities

    The accommodations provide a fantastic atmosphere for enjoying the Northern Lights, especially with the unique glass-roofed cabins that offer unobstructed views. Plus, the quality of outdoor activities, like husky sledding and snowshoeing, immerses you in that authentic winter adventure everyone craves.

    Unfortunately, the Wilderness Room I stayed in wasn't consistent. one room had an older, less appealing bathroom compared to the other. wifi access was quite limited, and I found a lack of toiletries like more than just basic soap. Meals tended to be pricey, especially considering the limited choices available, which might leave some wallets feeling a bit lighter than expected—especially when you factor in the high drink prices.

    limited amenities

    The charming log style with cozy warmth and modern comfort was delightful, making it easy for everyone to feel at home, including seniors like me. The inviting lounge and dining area were perfect for relaxing and enjoying meals.

    More mirrors and towel racks would be helpful.
