I loved the aurora cabin! The property was also beautiful! Included breakfast was nice. I didn’t get to see the northern lights unfortunately, but it was still nice to look at the stars from bed.
United States of Americathe property was gorgeous and the staff friendly. breakfast had a lot of variety available. the location is remote for higher chance of seeing the lights (unfortunately we still did not). also has its own husky farm.
United States of Americai like everything, the place is just the perfect place for me to relax, to breathe, to free my mind from all the stress that i have..if i want to escape life when it's getting messy again, i wanna be right there and breathe once again..
MaltaWe saw the Northern Lights from our room, it was an amazing light show! The room is small and basic but let's be honest, we are all here for the Aurora. Front row seats to the action but you have to turn off all the lights and be patient! Sleeping under the lights was an amazing experience and the food was also great!
SingaporeLoved the room and just looking up at the sky all night. You could stay in your warm room and watch the Northern lights.
United States of Americaexcellent location nearby the lake, very good and helpful staff.
QatarThe room was unique. Staff are friendly and helpful.
Philippinesgorgeous! the beds were comfortable and the food was plentiful and healthy and delicious. the reaper grounds are stunning and just what I imagined and hoped Finland and the Arctic circle would be. I’m so glad I paid a bit extra and didn’t stay in a cheaper hotel in the city! I could walk outside and see the Aurora at apukka which couldn’t happen in the city.
United States of Americaamazing location, beautiful layout . we had taken a Lappish Kammi Suite and there was more than enough space for a family with children. The glass roof was wonderful and the entire atmosphere was surreal. The staff were very friendly and helpful. the food at the restaurant was nice. if you are looking for winter activities, there is a good array to choose from and of course the mini snow slopes and snow sleighs entertain the children for hours.
QatarBeautiful location, lake. Some free attractions on the territory. Wonderful food (breakfast, dinner)
