Amazing place to stay

The view was awesome, but the staff was better. One of my first experiences in the snow and it was unforgettable. Perfect view of the snowfall from a full window wall. The forest looked like a winter wonderland. Best part i was able view the Borealis lights from my room! No need to venture out. Oh yes, the room was clean and beautiful. Breakfast is included! Do have a couple restaurants down the hill.

We had a great stay here. Really impressed with the place. I called in advance as was not sure what time we would arrive. Picked up the keys and the service there was fantastic.

Perfectly located, walking distance to market and only facilities in town. New and modern studios. Very narrow but comfortable. Sauna is a must. Large bathroom. Convenient kitchen fully equipped . Ok living space and small bedrooms. Sadly, linens and towels aren't included. Kitchen linen weren't available either. Bring yours or pay 12€ per person. Attentive staff. Beautiful place in Lapland.

The perfect Northern Lights getaway!

This place was PERFECT. We went chasing the Northern Lights and needed a place that we could relax in during the day and have a comfortable sleep in after our night looking at the skies and Santa’s Chalet’s didn’t disappoint. The staff were so friendly. The chalet had everything we needed - a sauna, roaring fire and TV, perfect comfy beds and all of the essentials to make a delicious dinner. Shops, restaurant and bar right next door and the cosmic inferno of the Northern Lights raging above. Couldn’t recommend it more.

Hyvin meni, aamupala todella monipuolinen. Hotellin ympäristön siistintä voisi olla paikallaan, helpoohomma käydä rakennusroskat ja muovit poimimassa pois luonnosta.

Huoneistot ulkoapäin siistejä. Sisältä aikas vanhat. Jostain repsotti listaa, yksi ikkuna oli halki, uunin kanssa oli haasteita kun säätökiekko ei toiminut. Portaat narisi niin että yöllä heräsi aina joku vaikka kuinka hiipi vessaan hipi hiljaa. Terassin kalusteet oli rikki. Makuuhuoneiden ikkunoista puuttui verhot. Ensimmäisen aamun aamupala oli suht hyvä. Kahtena seuraavana moni ruoka loppui kesken. Hintaan nähden huono verrattuna tämän reissun muihin majoituksiin.
