This Nordic nation boasts innovative cities surrounded by endless stretches of unspoilt nature. Around 10% of the country is covered by water, with around 180,000 lakes making it a great destination for swimming, boating or fishing. Finnish tourism is very much a tale of two seasons, with the winter period (typically December–March) offering wonderful skiing in Lapland, snowmobile treks and a chance to catch a glimpse of the other-worldly Northern Lights. Summer sees the arrival of the midnight sun and a huge variety of diverse music festivals and wacky events. Keep an eye out for the Air Guitar World Championships and the mobile phone throwing contest. Nicknamed the ‘Daughter of the Baltic’, the capital Helsinki is a hotspot for design shopping, cultural sites and striking architecture. Finland is awash with hotels, lakeside cottages and hostels. Helsinki features the widest range of choice including a number of self-catering apartments. The more remote accommodation options tend to be open in the summer season only.

Situated in Rovaniemi, 17 km from Santa Claus Village - Main Post Office, Halo Igloos Resort features accommodation with a shared lounge, free private parking, a terrace and a restaurant.
Guest review
Everything exceeded our expectations completely!
Such friendly staff, Roku (apologies for the spelling) went completely out of his way to make sure our stay was comfortable and that we were well looked after. Nothing was too much to ask for.
The breakfast and dinner buffet was delicious and we really appreciated having the main course served as à la carte. As someone who doesn’t drink alcohol, the staff were kind enough to always offer a new mocktail every day.
The rooms were brand new which adds to the cleanliness and the under floor heating was a game changer in the -14 weather. We had noodles and hot chocolates which could easily be made in the room with the kitchenette facilities.
Catching the northern lights whilst in our private hot tub or lying in bed is an experience that will never be forgotten!
We honestly cannot fault this place, and I highly highly recommend staying.

Situated in Rovaniemi, 12 km from Arktikum Science Centre, Shaman Village - Resort & Glass Igloos features accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a private beach area and a terrace.
Guest review
Glass igloos were right choice because three days in a row we were watching Aurora from our bed. There is also frozen lake right next to us with no people around and no light so watching Aurora was amazing.
Apartment is modern, clean, warm, we had a great time.
Breakfast was served night before for tomorrow and it was really good
Hosts are helpful and very polite
Overall we had a great time and i would absolutely recommend this property

The resort is absolutely magical and exactly what I envisioned when booking our trip. The staff were amazing and even helped us with a transfer from the postmaster hotel to our cabin ! So great. The cabins are modern, cosy and stylish. We had a great time celebrating a 30th Birthday! Thanks

The location of this hotel is very good. Although it takes ten minutes to drive to Santa Claus Village, the environment is quiet and there are super beautiful scenery. My daughter really likes this wooden house and wants to stay here forever. Every afternoon from 4 to 6 o'clock, she can also enjoy a free Finnish sauna. The service is also very friendly, and the breakfast is also very delicious. Our family will stay here again next time we come
