Wonderful once-in-lifetime experience
We had a rental car with us, all mandatory activities for us (reindeer sled, dog sled, snowmobile) could take place in favorable weather conditions. All guides were friendly and accommodating. Northern lights were brilliant, but nobody has any influence on that.
We do not want to miss the experience in any case and our recommendation is therefore 100%!
How do you feel about going home given the prices if you haven't seen the Northern Lights, there's a storm and -30 degrees during the excursions and you have to walk the long distances to the restaurant in heavy snowfall...? Three tips:
1. Get good winter clothes
2. Car rental
3. Do not rely on Aurora alarm in the room, we had no alarm! Download forecast app with KP index and actively watch the night sky!:) Our Northern Lights had a KP of 3-4

Luckily we got help from a great guy named Anastasios who got us into the west side of the property with an upgrade to an igloo with great facilities, where we saw the northern lights!
Thank you so much Anastasios for saving our bucket list trip from being a disaster!
You have great understanding & very helpful customer service skills!
The resort is much better in the west side…east side I would rate not much higher than back packer accommodation at a ridiculous price!
The food could be better too for the price!

The food is thoughtfully curated, with great consideration for vegetarians, which was a pleasant surprise.
Do note that the resort is in the middle of nowhere, offering unparalleled tranquility — but that also means you should carry some snacks for your room. Stepping out in harsh weather conditions requires caution. Overall, a fantastic stay and highly recommended for anyone seeking a serene Arctic escape!

Decent stay with subpar food
This hotel has been in our bucket list for a while , and unfortunately it didn’t live up to the expectation.
Food was really subpar as well , for dinner they had 3 options and 2 out of them are Indian options. Would have been good if there were a couple of Finnish/Western options. It seems the hotel has partnered with tour companies and there are bus loads of tourists day in day out .
