I would say this is an average hotel but you’re paying for the Possibility of seeing the lights from your room. The food options weren’t great. There were too many families so that tempered the romance for a lot Of the couples there. However, our guides For the activities were phenomenal. ##### Leanna Stayed 1 night in Jan 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Pearl 20 Oct 2023 Aurora cabin was a likeable place to quiet down and if the weather permits, you’ll see the lights from your cabin. But there was no curtains for day time and it feels very bright to be in the cabin to rest. The room service tablet wasn’t working and was never replaced with new ones. When we went there, the snow was powdery and not good for any snow activities but after a frw days of snowing, there were snow mobile activities and we missed the chance as we didn’t know that it was available on the day. Would be nice if did the snow mobile. Food was very delicious 👍 ##### Pearl Stayed 6 nights in Oct 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Savan 13 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities Very very bad experience with food which ruined the entire experience! The welcome at reception was nice, cabin was decent, activities were also nice! However, when I came to dinner it was horrible. Dinner was all different salads. I am a vegetarian, even then it was quite unsatisfactory for it. On top of that there were no drinks like juices, cola or similar included in the dinner. Those were available for extra cost. No one was ready to answer saying don't work in restaurant, talk to manager and all! Overall the staff ruined the experience during the dinner. NOT RECOMMENDED! ##### Savan Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Arjun 4 Dec 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We stayed here for 3 nights and we actually saw some of the best Norther Lights for 2 nights! The cabin definitely has a fantastic view towards the sky and the towards north in general. The amount of activities available and timeslots available were more than sufficient for us to cover almost everything. All activities were managed and done very well and we enjoyed all thoroughly. I have to give a special shoutout to the team which did the "Search for Santa" activity. This is easily one of the best and most magical activity we have done, especially when looking at it from the little eyes of our 7 & 9 year old kids. This will be part of their memory (and ours) for a life time! Food options could have been better. We do not eat red meat and there was only Fish as the other option so we literally ate Salmon or some other similar fish for ALL meals. Breakfast too is repeated every day without any changes. At one point we went out to the nearby Kmart to buy instant noodles as the food options were really very few for those who do not eat red meat. If you are a Vegetarian or Vegan or need Halal food, you can't survive here. Getting your luggage to your cabin is gonna break your back as you have to load your luggage on the wooden sleigh and push through knee deep snow for quite a long distance. This sounds fun in the beginning until you start doing it. It becomes a horrible experience quite rapidly. But otherwise, the service from the staff has been top notch! ##### Arjun Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Paul 1 Mar 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great place really well run. Super helpful and friendly staff. We stayed 5 nights in Feb 2023 in cabin 17, which was great. Cabins 1 to 20 are at the northern most edge of the resort, so you have nice views north of trees and the aurora, and not looking at the backs of more cabins. Top tip, there is a path not shown on the map from opposite cabin 17 direct to reception. First morning we went to reception and arranged activities for every day with the super helpful staff there – snowmobiling, dog sledging, reindeer sleigh ride, and aurora lake trip, all of which were great fun. Good views of the aurora from the warmth and comfort of our cabin when the clouds cleared. Views from the lake (and on route to the lake) were even better due to darker skies. Thanx to Lancashire Matt for a great fun snowmobile ride along interesting back route paths on Lynx 600cc snowmobiles – they were pretty easy to drive, with no gears and lovely heated grips. Dog sledging was with 5 dogs pulling, one person sitting in the sledge and the other driving / hanging on for dear life :-D Swapped driver and passenger half way. Lovely scenery, but very chilly, so I'd recommend wearing a ski mask. Reindeer sleigh ride was nice and sedate, at walking pace, nicely wrapped up warm, again through nice scenery. Transfer from and to airport was organised by the hotel for 70 Euros each way. Contact the resort in advance to request transfer. The office is not manned at weekends, so contact them in advance on ##### Paul Stayed 5 nights in Feb 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Jana 19 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Wir haben zwei Nächte im Northern Lights Village in Saariselkä verbracht und waren insgesamt sehr begeistert. Unsere Aurora-Hütte war wunderschön eingerichtet – gemütlich, warm und perfekt, um direkt vom Bett aus den Himmel zu beobachten. Die Einrichtung ist modern, der kleine Kamin macht es super heimelig und das Bad mit Dusche war ein großer Pluspunkt. Die Hütte ist aufgrund der Bauform etwas klein, aber für ein paar Tage völlig ausreichend und sehr komfortabel. Das Haupthaus mit Rezeption, Bar und Restaurant ist ebenfalls stilvoll eingerichtet und hat eine tolle Atmosphäre. Einziger Kritikpunkt: Das Essen hätte besser sein können. Es war teilweise gut, teilweise eher mittelmäßig, und die Auswahl war nicht besonders groß. Hier hatten wir für den Preis etwas mehr erwartet. Wir haben eine der angebotenen Aktivitäten genutzt – die Husky-Safari im Herbst – und sie hat uns gut gefallen. Die Organisation war zuverlässig und das Erlebnis sehr schön. Natürlich ist die Unterkunft insgesamt recht teuer, wie alle Glasdach-Lodges in Lappland. Aber im Northern Lights Village fühlt es sich definitiv hochwertig an. Für uns war es das Geld wert, weil die Hütte, die Atmosphäre und die gesamte Anlage einfach etwas Besonderes sind. Wir würden wiederkommen – schon allein wegen der traumhaften Aurora-Hütte und der gemütlichen Anlage. ✨💙🌲 ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/42e5e35b-1a12-404e-87b4-d44d6e23ec56-1763577347915.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/25e43877-d06d-460b-91eb-e4d5c9d261e1-1763577348451.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0c60047e-a98f-4de2-b830-6e9934d1a575-1763577346657.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/4b0e0a30-e0a9-4829-ac99-8e4e5fca657e-1763577347568.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Jana Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Mathieu 29 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Hébergement de qualité mais avec quelques parties abîmées.

In unserem gemütlichen, renovierten Cabin konnten wir einen unbeschreiblichen Ausblick vom Bett aus dem Glasfach genießen. Wenn der Aurora Alarm der Resort-App losgeht, kann man vom Bett aus die Polarlichter tanzen sehen. Oder den Sternenhimmel beobachten. Es ist genug Platz für 2 Personen, die Badprodukte sind von der Marke Rituals. Alles war sehr sauber. Im wunderschön eingerichteten Restaurant gab es sehr gutes Essen vom Buffet! Wir haben drei tolle Ausflüge gemacht (Husky, Rentier Schlitten, Snow Mobile) mit sehr freundlichen Guides, die noch viel Hintergrundinfos gegeben haben. Gute Overalls, Schneestiefel und Handschuhe werden kostenlos zur Verfügung gestellt. Mit dem Skibus kann man in 5-10 Minuten zum Skiresort fahren. Auch für Nicht-Skifahrer lohnt sich die Fahrt auf den Berg mit dem Sessellift für eine grandiose Aussicht über die Weiten Finnlands. In die kleine Stadt zum Supermarkt und Restaurants läuft man gemütlich in 10-15 Minuten. Es war alles perfekt und eine unbeschreiblich schöne Reise!!! ##### Alexander Marcus Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Vittorio 7 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Sempre una garanzia.

Hacía frío pero no tanto como para pasarlo mal. Las habitaciones cabañas del hotel eran monísimas y estaban siempre calentitas. El buffet era muy pequeño, pero la comida de calidad. Todo el personal del hotel era súper agradable (como todos los finlandeses que nos hemos encontrado la verdad). La ducha salía que podías cocerte unos macarrones directamente jaja así que recomiendo ponerlo siempre en la temperatura fría porque te escaldas. No se oía absolutamente ningún ruido de fuera. Ver las estrellas y las auroras desde la cama fue una absoluta maravilla. Tuvimos suerte la última noche de poder ver las auroras con más intensidad. En Saariselkä (al que llegas andando en 10 minutos) hay muchas rutas de trekking súper bonitas. Y hay un bosque detrás de la zona del hotel donde poder caminar también, nosotras vimos un alce precioso a lo lejos. Para ponerle una pega, el sofá cama que nos tocó (cabaña 21) era incomodísimo, se te clavaban todos los muelles; pero pedimos un par de nórdicos más en recepción para almohadillar y perfecto, aunque por el precio del hotel es algo que deben mejorar. Al igual que el olor de las cañarías de los baños. Por lo demás, perfecto ##### Alba Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### future 8 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities スタッフが色々と大変親切に対応してくれました。 ホテルで頼んだオーロラハンティングも最高でした。 ##### future Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Marko 18 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Mökki rauhaa Mukavat mökit. ##### Marko Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Marko 18 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Mökkimiljöö Mukavat mökit. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/70C7E7088ED8CD4204AD748C195AE6554C4C49A51723978855238.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Marko Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Lapland Hotels Ounasvaara Chalets](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rovaniemi-Hotels-Lapland-Hotels-Ounasvaara-Chalets.h3498121.Hotel-Information) > > [Wilderness Hotel Inari & Igloos](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Inari-Hotels-Wilderness-Hotel-Inari.h24043653.Hotel-Information) > > [Ranua Resort Holiday Village](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ranua-Hotels-Holiday-Village-Gulo-Gulo.h25782077.Hotel-Information) > > [Arctic Light Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rovaniemi-Hotels-Arctic-Light-Hotel.h9359896.Hotel-Information) > > [Wilderness Hotel Muotka & Igloos](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sodankyla-Hotels-Wilderness-Hotel-Muotka.h24043751.Hotel-Information) > > [Wilderness Hotel Juutua](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Inari-Hotels-Tradition-Hotel-Kultahovi.h4675539.Hotel-Information) > > [Santasport Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rovaniemi-Hotels-Santasport-Resort.h10107966.Hotel-Information) > > [Northern Lights Village Levi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kittila-Hotels-Northern-Lights-Village-Levi.h31367688.Hotel-Information) > > [Santasport Apartment Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rovaniemi-Hotels-Santasport-Apartment-Hotel.h31867355.Hotel-Information) > > [Santa's Hotel Santa Claus](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rovaniemi-Hotels-Santas-Hotel-Santa-Claus.h892285.Hotel-Information) > > [Wilderness Hotel Nellim & Igloos](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Inari-Hotels-Wilderness-Hotel-Nellim.h24043818.Hotel-Information) > > [Salkolahti Rentola](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Orivesi-Hotels-Salkolahti-Rentola.h34945373.Hotel-Information) > > [Lapland Hotels Hetta](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Enontekio-Hotels-Lapland-Hotels-Hetta.h1636390.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Vienna](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Vienna-Intl-Airport-Hotels.0-aVIE-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Koh Samet](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Koh-Samet-Hotels.d6123502.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Ranua Resort Arctic Igloos](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ranua-Hotels-Arctic-Fox-Igloos.h25782158.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Tynemouth](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tynemouth-Newcastle-Upon-Tyne-Hotels.0-n182677-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [The Ro Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Windermere-Hotels-The-Ro-Hotel.h444074.Hotel-Information) > > [Lapland Hotels Sky Ounasvaara](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rovaniemi-Hotels-Lapland-Hotels-Sky-Ounasvaara.h1425192.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in New York](https://www.expedia.co.uk/John-F-Kennedy-Intl-Airport-Hotels.0-aJFK-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Northern Lights Ranch](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kittila-Hotels-Northern-Lights-Ranch.h20171667.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Club Kuusamon Tropiikki](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kuusamo-Hotels-Holiday-Club-Kuusamon-Tropiikki.h63511.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Key Largo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Key-Largo-Hotels.d8369.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [easyHotel Glasgow](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Glasgow-Hotels-EasyHotel-Glasgow.h23052196.Hotel-Information) > > [Arctic City Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rovaniemi-Hotels-Arctic-City-Hotel.h83016.Hotel-Information) > > [Sofitel London Heathrow](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Sofitel-London-Heathrow.h1740977.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from London (LHR) to Des Moines (DSM)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/dsm/london-to-des-moines) ### Packages ---
