Ξενοδοχεία με breakfast σε Lapland, Finland

In the mountains~ It is more convenient to drive by yourself! There are not many people, very quiet~ It takes about half an hour to drive from Santa Claus Village Drive into the woods of the hotel. There is a kind of lonely beauty!! It is also very mysterious... There are also deer in the hotel! It’s a pity that I didn’t see the northern lights this time

I had a wonderful stay at Santa’s Hotel Santa Claus, which is pretty on theme. The staff were exceptionally friendly, welcoming and helpful throughout my stay. The location is also very convenient, with the airport express bus stopping directly in front of the hotel, as well as easy access from Santa Claus Village. My room was very spacious, with high ceilings and a large bathroom, which made the stay very comfortable. The only minor area for improvement is the practicality of some of the room design, such as the bathtub allowing some water to leak around the edges, the kettle cord being quite short, and the high curtains being difficult to operate without a puller. Overall, these were small practical details in an otherwise excellent stay. I would happily stay here again and really appreciated the kindness and professionalism of the staff.

I visited during the National Day holiday, which is considered the off-season and there was no snow. Pros: 1. It's close to Santa Claus Village, though still a bit of a walk, and the path isn't great (there's construction, so maybe it'll improve later?). 2. The breakfast offers a good variety, with fruits and vegetables to get your vitamins. However, since it's not in the city, there are definitely fewer freshly prepared options compared to a typical hotel. 3. The room size is decent, with space for luggage. 4. There's also a special sauna. Cons: 1. The path from reception to the room is gravel, and we were assigned the furthest room. They did ask if we needed help, but we still dragged our two suitcases there ourselves. 2. The in-room tablet isn't very reliable. The front desk said we could use the chat feature for questions, but my question about breakfast times on the first day was never answered, even by checkout. Also, I didn't hear any aurora alerts. 3. We were in the room at the very edge of the hotel, and during the day, a small crane was moving around outside our window. I'm really curious about what's going on near the hotel. 4. Lotion is not provided.

Northern Lights Village in Saariselkä is an absolutely beautiful resort with an atmosphere that truly lives up to its name. During our stay, we were lucky enough to see the Northern Lights every day and almost every night, without needing to go outside for aurora hunting at all. Some nights, the aurora was incredibly strong, with vivid green and even red colors clearly visible. Seeing red aurora was especially rare and felt truly magical. One of the most unforgettable experiences was being able to lie comfortably in bed and watch the Northern Lights through the glass roof, right from the room. It was simply breathtaking and deeply impressive. The staff are friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help, with warm smiles that make guests feel well taken care of. The room is comfortable and thoughtfully designed, with heated floors, which is very nice in extreme winter conditions. On the first night, the room felt quite cold due to a power outage, so we had to sleep wearing warm clothes. On the second night, the temperature was much better and comfortable. Considering that the outside temperature dropped to around -40°C, the room may feel slightly cool at times, but overall it was still comfortable enough to sleep well. Bathroom amenities are mostly complete; however, toothbrushes and razors are not provided, which would be a nice improvement for a resort of this level. Other amenities are well prepared. Overall, Northern Lights Village offers an extraordinary and once-in-a-lifetime experience. Being able to see the Northern Lights so clearly and frequently, right from your bed, makes this place truly special. Highly recommended for anyone who dreams of experiencing the Northern Lights in the most comfortable and unforgettable way.

overall: Definitely the best accommodation in Saariselkä Geographically located at almost the highest point We saw the unforgettable Aurora on the first night we stayed 😭🥺 And it’s really obvious! ! ! ! The hotel does not have much unnecessary light pollution It’s just perfect for taking aurora photos with clear faces. The room type we booked is a cabin in the building. Highly recommend everyone to book this room type The design of the building within the building is really comfortable. There is also extra space for luggage, so it won’t be too crowded. Large floor-to-ceiling windows allow you to easily see the entire snow scene There is also a balcony where you can go out There are also plastic snowboards to play with outside the door of the room. Everyone has a smile from the time they check in at the front desk The service attitude is super good! After staying two nights we decided to book another night This time I stayed in a glass house It’s amazing though! But I would recommend the cabin more Oh, there’s more! Be sure to try their sauna Super big, super comfortable and very reasonably priced transportation: I think it is more comfortable to drive by yourself if you come to Saariselkä. Although the ski resort, the entire town and the entire hotel are not far from each other, driving will make traveling much more convenient. It will not be difficult to drive on the way up, and you will see awesome scenery. The view, overall very convenient. Breakfast: Sufficient portions, all you can eat salmon and various fish, together with beautiful views, the overall experience is very good Dinner: The hotel provides dinner at the same place in the evening. I personally think it is worth a try. In addition to the a**osphere, the food is also very delicious! It is recommended to dine at sunset, everything is beautiful!

This time, I brought my two children to Rovaniemi, and we chose to stay inside Santa Claus Village. The overall experience was excellent. The location is unbeatable, right within Santa Claus Village, making it incredibly convenient to take the kids to see Santa Claus and explore the village. We stayed in an individual log cabin, which was clean, tidy, and spacious enough. The heating was very strong, providing a comfortable return to the room in the Lappish weather. Parking right outside the door was also very convenient, making self-driving completely stress-free. The hotel's surroundings are lovely, offering the atmosphere of Santa Claus Village while also providing quick access to the real Lapland forests and natural scenery by car. During our stay, we went hiking in the forest during the day and drove out to chase the aurora at night, successfully catching the Northern Lights. This left us with truly unforgettable memories from this trip. The staff were also very friendly, and both check-in and check-out were smooth. For families bringing children to Rovaniemi, this place is highly recommended. For my two sons and me, this wasn't just a hotel; it became a part of the wonderful memories from our Lapland trip. We would definitely consider staying here again on our next visit to Rovaniemi.

Buffet breakfast, diversified styles, my favorite salmon, eggplant juice beans and wheat skin, and a self-service waffles machine, let the guests make their own waffles 🧇, hot and very delicious! The hotel is on the side of the river in River Juutua, you can see the beautiful view of the river in the restaurant and room, first-class enjoyment! The front desk clerk was happy to answer our questions, and some were smiling! The waiters and food in the hotel restaurant (Aanaar) reached the level of a 5-star hotel. When serving, each dish will be explained, what is its main dish, side dish and juice! The most unfortunately, the thermostat does not have temperature, and the weather is not too cold. There is a hot tube for drying clothes in the bathroom, and the wet clothes are drying quickly!

Bad management during check in. I book an Apartment for 2 nights for this stay but I got the room for 1 night each. Staff told me I have to change room tomorrow and check out at 12PM. So that mean first night I stay and tomorrow check out 12PM and wait for a new room. Also, the apartment is very far from reception. Luckily, I have a car. Imagine if I don't have a car, I have to carry big luggage from the apartment to reception to check out and wait for new room later and move my luggage to new room again, how was it? Moreover, when I check out at 12PM staff told me the room will ready for check in around 2 hours. Then came back to check in again for second at 3PM another staff told me the room is not ready yet and policy for the Apartment check in time is 6PM. ***!!! I said I need the room now because this is unacceptable. Then staff told me the room is ready and give me the key card. So, for this situation I waste the time for half day to pack my luggage, move a lot of luggage to my car with a lot of snow, check out, go to reception for check out, wait the new room, wait, wait, wait, and come back to check in and got very bad answer that she told the room is not ready, and go to check in again, move my luggage to new apartment with a lot of snow, and take a rest. VERY BAD!!!!!

We stayed for two nights. The dinner was delicious, just like at a good restaurant, and even included dessert. We were able to see the amazing aurora both days, which was great.

The staff of the Villa is very helpful and the reception is locared in the main building with a souvenir shop and a small snow castle. It's pitiful that I checked in late and checked out early in the next day's morning, and could not enjoy the beautiful sunset in the Villa.
