Tähtikuja 2, 96930 Rovaniemi, Finland – Excellent location – show map

Cottages were modern, well equipped and very cosy. The Christmas theme in August added to the atmosphere. Location was very convenient, not far from the city but far enough.

Damiano

Close to all attractions of Rovaniemi. Nice room with good decoration and comfortable to stay.

Jamjuree

It was really nice place, yo can reach nearly all lapland activities in one place. You should eat salmon at salmon place, it was the best thing in that area. İt really best place in rovaniemi for families with children.

Avni

Great place to stay overnight. Lots of activities to do - especially for young kids, just find a free tobagoon and slide down any pill of snow. Lots of tourist come during the day time, but its nice to walk around after they've gone.

The breakfast was good. The house itself was very clean and spacious. I think the sauna was necessary as I used it everyday. The shower had great water pressure.

Asked about: Classic Cottage with Sauna
Hello,I would like to ask if I could book a Superior Cottage with Sauna-A for 3 adults + 1 child (8 years old)

Hello! Thank you for your message. Unfortunately, it’s not possible to accommodate all of you in a Superior Cottage. All of our rooms except the Family Suites can accommodate up to 2 adults with 2 children (under 14yo) on the sofa bed (145cm wide) or 3 adults. . In accordance to the Finnish Fire Rescue Law, if a fire accident was to happen and officers find out that we have overbooked the room, we will be sentenced. Only possibility to overbook is when 1 child is an infant, maximum 2 years old. That is what our license covers. So you'll need to book 2 Classic or Superior cottages or 1 Family Suite for your party. If you book 2 Classic or Superior cottages, we can arrange 2 rooms in the same house.

Are northern lights visible from the room, I mean from the holiday village if we get out of the room. Also is there any facility for a wake up service for the northern lights if it appears in the middle of the night?

If northern lights are stong enough you may see them also on our cottage area, but because we have a lot of Christmas lights here round it's always best to go further from the lights. Aurora alert service can be purshased.
