    I had a super nice room overlooking the river which was frozen and was used as a road for snow mobiles and pedestrians alike. The bed was comfortable and location was good (about 8 mins from the main bus station, about 12 from the shop). Internet...

    Breakfast was great very traditional finish breakfast. Had amazing fruit. The room was colder than we expected. But they had good blankets so it was manageable.

    Good price/quality hotel. Rooms were clean, and the staff was friendly. Good location in Ivalo next to the river. Free use of equipment such as ski boots, xc skis, and ice skating shoes was a nice bonus. Activities can be booked at the hotel.
