Experience of Igloo stay was as expected. Room & Bathroom too small. Not even a proper mirror in the room/bathroom. Resort location is quite good - just off the main road and very short walk from bus station.

The location is perfect to see the Northern Lights. We saw it twice right from our cabin. The location was also very near the ski lifts and tobogganing slopes. We also appreciated the fully-equipped kitchen and clothes dryer that could warm your clothes on a very cold day! The heated glass roofs also ensured we always had a clear view of the sky. We walked down town (about 25 minutes slow walk) to get groceries to cook, though the uphill could be a challenge. The personal sauna was a bonus. We booked the taxi airport transfer through the property and the lady was great. She helped us with our luggage and opened the doors for us, which was very helpful since it was a self check-in property and it's not always easy figuring things out in the cold!

It was the best decision to stay at this property far away in the wilderness. We opted for half board (food was delicious) and all activities offered by the resort and it made our stay super convenient and memorable. Highly recommend this property and their activities.

Love the team in village safari house that does all the excursions . The excursion team had amazing energy engaging and was always so nice. Do the excursion especially the snow mobile , and reindeer learned a lot. The team in dining area always helpful and attentive. Liked that they do turn off lights in the path when northern lights happen , they should put that somewhere . Did the private sauna worth it , so clean and nice and nice hot shower.

If you're going skiing, Saariselkä is a good option and you can stay there for a week, for example.
If you are looking for the Northern Lights, maybe 3 nights would be ok, but you you should pray for good weather, with clear skies, and , of course, for the aurora to appear.

Saariselka has everything you need for a winter lapland trip! The ski resort is at walking distance, there are more than three DMC's to chose from when booking trips, there are plenty of restaurants and pubs. THe supermarket is big for a small town and offers all you need. Note that you can't buy wine in the supermarket but there's a small store next to it called Alko where you can pick up a bottle of wine.

It is a small and quiet town. Air is very fresh.
It is a small and quiet town. Air is very fresh. Trees with snow on it are very beautiful. You can have many snow activities here. If you stay several days and the weather is good, you may have opportunity to see Aurora.
Bus is very convenient. You can go from Rovaniemi. You can also take bus to Ivalo and Ivalo airport.
Restaurants are very good in this small town.

It is a very beautiful place, but it is expensive. I just stayed for one night in a beautiful cabin. I think that the food is ok and also there could be some more interesting things to in the Hotel do when it gets dark.

You can do many activities - skiing, biking, hiking, relaxing, observing, and enjoying Lapland nature. You have a big chance to see the Aurora Borealis. There is a very comfortable and understandable system of day huts and wilderness huts with essential equipment in and out of the national park — an excellent place for people who love nature.
Our stay here was everything we could’ve wanted and more! The hotel is very nice and had everything we needed, including activities like snowmobiling. the location is prime - it’s close enough to the village and in a good spot to potentially see the northern lights. The staff was exceptional, as was the breakfast! The Aurora cabin itself was beautiful and exactly what we were looking for! The snowy landscape was breathtaking of course, and the design of the whole hotel compliments it well.
The owners made us feel really welcome and did everything in their power to offer top service. We've asked a cabin with open view to the forest and they made sure it met our expectations. They also surprised us with a gift in the room, once they knew that we were traveling for our wedding anniversary. The room and bathroom are nicely designed and very comfortable ,the whole concept of this hotel is amazing and high quality...Nina and her husband have created a hidden gem in Lapland!
A magical place! The staff were helpful and considerate and could not do enough to make our 4 night stay a pleasure.
We stayed in the Aurora Cabin for 4 nights and it was excellent. The sauna in the room was also an added bonus.
The buffet food was good. In the two other hotels we stayed at in Helsinki and Lapland, both had Porridge on the menu for breakfast.
All in all a wonderful stay and would not hesitate to recommend the Wilderness Hotel, Muotka to anyone.
The room, the view and the Jacuzzi were even better than advertised, but the thing that stood out was how incredibly helpful the staff was. Juuso helped us with everything we could've needed and more: setting up the room in a particular way, driving us to places, even showing us around Saariselka. Maybe I'm biased because I proposed on this trip, but this was the best hotel I've ever stayed at. Get the Jacuzzi place! Absolutely worth every penny.
Log hut is an amazing experience, large room with Sauna
Igloo was a magical experience
Patron engagement by Jothi Nalluri the sales and marketing manager was phenomenal, there should be more dynamic characters like her in the hotel industry in the Nordic countries
Activities like husky sledge and snowmobile were brilliant
A truly magical property and I will go back again for sure
Location of Ruokto's apartment is excellent. There's everything around right from good restaurants to sovenier shop.
We were lucky to see the Auroras just outside the home on the very 1st night. The house is just 50 mts from the inter city bus stop.
The house has everything that we needed. A very comfortable and super clean house. If in Saariselka, best home to stay.
The apartment is exactly as advertised and more!
Great location, convenient and well equipped! Easy car park, shops, restaurants within walking distance, yet quiet and in the middle of Lappish nature.
Clearly, the hosts are passionate about Lapland and want to share this with their visitors. It made us feel very welcome and as if we were home, away from home.
Great place, extremely nice view (right above Saariselkä) and possibility to observe everything literally from the bed :) Few hundreds of meters from the hill top of Kaunispää. The room was nice and clean, sauna included. Large panoramatic windows incl. heating to meltdown any snow/ice which would obstruct the view.
USuperb place.
Away from Saariselka village. In wilderness.
Perfect placement of the glass roof facing north.
Heavenly view of the sky in the night. Experience of Northern lights was out of this world.
Good food. Must try Sauteed Reindeer.
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
It's a cosy place in the middle of nowhere, less light pollution but still very close to Saariselka (4km). Everything was clean even though we shared the kitchen and bathroom.
Comfortable bed, big rooms and a very nice living room. There is even a sauna to use.
Best location in Saariselkä! Very close to city center, restaurants, shops and ski tracks. Healthy and vegan friendly breakfast. Affordable rooms with maximum comforts compared to other hotels. Good staff. Location is very convenient for ski buses.
The location was excellent. Saariselkä is small so everything is walking distance. Safaris, grocery store, ski lifts etc.
The Paraspaikka apartments had a Sauna in them which was great.
Staff was nice and helpful.
Breakfast was ok.
Amazing apartment with great facilities. Awesome views, Dry and covered parking, Big bathroom with sauna, Kitchen with all basic amenities. Close to all attractions in Saariselka. Very responsible host.
The location was really nice, but I have to put a lot of effort into getting breakfast in the morning since it is far away about 4km away from the hotel, but overall, the hotel was quite amazing!
EVERYTHING WAS ON POINT! Natasha our host was great, very helpful and always reachable. When we visit Saariselka next time we’ll definitely stay again at this villa.
The location is center of saariselka, easy to access to any where, supermaket, ski resort and restaurants. warm temperatured apartment! good to have sauna as well.
The Kelo Igloo was exquisite. we like the fact that it has an alarm when the northern lights are showing. No need to go out of the room and wait all night.
