The most unique accommodation for northern lights
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! This place is one of a kind with glass dome windows in half of our large suite. There are only two of us, but the place can accommodate at least 6. We saw Northern Lights on our last night there and it was an unforgettable sight for a lifetime. The meals were also delicious, coupled with a variety of activities within the resort, such as snowmobiling, reindeer ride, visiting Santa's home etc. We can't wait to go back again soon!

We stayed for 6 nights and enjoyed every minute of it. We loved the Kelo cabin. Everything about this place made for a very relaxing vacation. We were very satisfied the dining each night. They had four main menus that rotated each day. Our favorite excursion was the dog sledding. We have enthusiastically recommended Kakslauttanen Arctic Resort to all of our friends and family.

The staff at receptions are very helpful to arrange all activities for us at last minute booking. Really appreciate. The only comment is to equip the igloo with more accommodation facility such as hook at toilet, bigger bin etc.😊

Before I made reservations in this hotel I read so many opinions. Some of them was really bad so I afraid book this hotel. But I am so happy I did. Everything was perfect. Everybody was so nice and helpful. Food was delicious especially dinner. I will recommend this hotel ( we spend one night in the igloo) to everyone.

Other than very expensive activities there is nothing to do. It is a beautiful location but very remote. The igloo stay is an experience though and was amazing to view the northern lights.

Not great value for money. Even as a one off exp.
Stunning resort with breathing taking beauty and plenty of activities. But has become extremely expensive lately. I've been just about every year for a decade now, but I think my most recent trip will be my last. I don't think it represents fair value for money anymore. Owners/operators have let the service quality slide quite a bit. Cabins and location are still fantastic. But there are probably other equally impressive locations with far more friendly welcoming, warm service that are not anywhere near as expensive as this place.

I was surprised that there were no Finnish people working at the resort. The dinner was luke warm not hot. The dessert was not as described and had zero flavor. The smoke sauna was an incredible delight. Over all I’d say the facilities need some updating. I believe the price that you are paying to stay here is not for customer service or food quality or facilities but the experience. If you only are seeking a visual delight and cost is not an issue then I would stay here.

Very bad experience, my friend fell and broke her wrist and the hotel did not have any transportation to go to the hospital, they did not have a pain pill, they called the taxi companies and they could not find a taxi, thank God, someone He offered to take us, we also had 2 activities that same day that we couldn't do and they didn't refund our money. When you arrive you have to carry the suitcases yourself to the room, which are super far away. I don't recommend it. He only cares about making money. he doesn't care about the client, the food was terrible

The whole facility and dinner looks good. However, the Sauna doesn’t work. The heating dial was missing. A screw of door handle was loose. No service for fireplace at all. I mentioned this just because the price doesn’t match the facilities. I paid a lot and do want to see those facilities works well even I don’t use it.
