    Suitable for celebrating anniversary. Gorgeous hotel with nice food and stunning location very close to close to a restaurant and ski lift, a hilltop overlooking Saariselka and the hill top. Extremely comfy bed, nice bathroom and a mini bar, a sofa bed and central heating in the room.

    beautiful views but minor heating issues

    The room was very nice with fine Aurora Hut windows. The staff provided friendly service throughout our stay. We particularly enjoyed the mountain view during the day. It added to the overall experience.

    Heating instructions were confusing.

    private sauna

    Luxurious, luxurious, luxurious.

    Every moment in our View Suite Sauna seemed like a dream! With floor-to-ceiling windows, we soaked in amazing views of the snow-capped landscape and even spotted the northern lights from the comfort of our own room. Plus, the private sauna was the cherry on top after our adventurous days in the snowy wonderland!

    do recommend 😊❤️

    comfortable cabin

    Star arctic is on top of the kaunispaa fell, perfect for seeing the aurora and offering amazing views. It's close to the ski centre. Our aurora cabin was super clean and comfy with amazing views day and night. Breakfast had so many delicious options!

    spacious suite
    excellent restaurant
    family friendly

    Great stay with room for improvements

    We enjoyed our family stay over six nights. The View Suite with Sauna was perfect, but rental prices for snow gear felt a bit steep. Dinner was excellent our first night, yet our last dinner was disappointing. It's worth trying the restaurant early in the season!
