Room with a Winter Wonderland view

Excellent location not only because the trails start meters from your door, but also because close by there’s an agency that offers excellent snowmobile and husky dog sledding so this is convenient. Limited number of rooms means not as busy as large hotels. Perfect for couples and solo travellers as facilities well kept, breakfast covers what you need to hit the trails and wifi was good.

Rentouttava ja kaunis hotelli

Mukava kokemus hienossa hotellissa. Todella upeat maisemat ja huoneemme oli päivitetty parempaan veloituksetta. Se oli positiivinen yllätys. Huone oli siisti ja hiljainen. Aamulla yläkerrasta kuului hieman aamupalasta ääniä mutta se ei haitannut. Yleiset tilat oli rauhalliset ja oli rentouttavaa istua viinilasillisen ääressä ja katsoa maisemia takkatulen ääressä.

Palvelu osattiin

Rec vastaanotto kymppi. Lappi-illallinen liki kymppi, monipuolinen ja paikallisuus erinom esillä, poronkäristystä voisi kokki hiukan viilata perinteiseksi. Tarjoilupalvelu ja koko palvelukokonaisuus erinomaista. Siisteys kymppi, tätä arvostan "isosti"!!! Uusittu sauna kympoi!!
