I had an absolutely extraordinary experience at Nova Galaxy Village during my one-night stay. The pods, though small, are perfectly suited and comfortably equipped for spending a night in the snow. The private sauna worked flawlessly and provided a unique experience that I highly recommend to anyone visiting Finland during the snowy months. Additionally, the husky sledding excursion was wonderfully timed and an absolute must-do. The staff were friendly and welcoming, making the stay even more enjoyable.

    I don’t think you need a lot of time here in the spring or summer because a few of the tours don’t operate but it’s still worth visiting. Beautiful pristine area that reminds you of the beauty of nature.

    A nice town at the arctic circle, museums, sporting facilities, theatre, shopping malls, reastaurants, hotels. It has an airport connected with Helsinki, Dublin, Brusseles (and perhaps more). There is a whole village dedicated to the Santa Claus theme. There are buildings made from ice during the winter, some hotels and wedding-places among them.

    Rovaniemi is a really great city to visit.

    Rovaniemi is a really great city to visit. In winter the city is under a lot of snow but has always trucks to get the snow out of the road, small rocks on the pavement to prevent from falling. Rovaniemi has a lot of green tracks and its is lovely to follow them along the river. Great places for children to play too. For dinner time, I can recommend the MonteRosa restaurant in the city center. Great and friendly service from all the employees, excellent food and drinks. (I can recommend the salmon soup, the grilled salmon and the reindeer cooked two ways). For lunch, I went to Cafe & Bar 21. It was busy from 12 to 15 (I guess very popular) but nonetheless very enjoyable. Combining the bar/coffee with Yuca (a mexican restaurant) is great because people can have different lunch if wished. The deserts are also excellent. For the activities, everybody can found something that they like. For the french people you can found the Nordic Odyssey office to book activities with a french translator (even if the english explanation I had where really understanding). It can always be helpful for the people who can't speak english. You can found supermarket everywhere and some of them are open until 22:00 which is great.

    Santa from the city center was better than the one in SCV (at least for us). He was really communicative, giving us tips and tricks for aurora hunting. After we bought a picture we could take more with our own phone, made videos for our friends etc. We love that there are different places where you can barbeque during the walking. Lake from Artikum museum is a good place to see aurora. Loved the winter trails. Souvenirs are cheaper in SCV than in the city center.

    This hotel was our absolute highlight on our trip through Finnland. From the very first step until saying goodbye the experience was great! The personnel - everybody - friendly and supportive. The breakfast was great so we decided to stay for dinner - that was outstanding! The room very luxurious, with lots of space and comfortable beds. The hotel is located in the center of Rovaniemi, bus directly in front of the door. When we will come back to Rovaniemi we will for sure stay in the Arctic Light Hotel! Thanks for the wonderful stay!

    It was outstanding! We enjoyed the stay a lot, we had everything we needed in that room: good tasty food. There was no staff there because it's an apart hotel, but we can say that they organized our room in a cosy way. Everything was available. The staff wrote a very kind note that I took as a souvenir. We really loved to stay there... We loved every single detail and we thank everyone who made an effort to make it as cosy as possible!

    The location is great and the interior is nice and looks pretty new and stylish. We loved having the sauna in the apartment, you wouldn't get this in a hotel. Also we loved that the whole apartment was very warm despite the chilly weather. Overall the apartment was fantastic value for the money and it was easy to communicate with the host via the app. Definitely would consider Arctic Apartments again next time we visit Rovaniemi!

    Don’t hesitate to book Villa Kyyhkynen if you’re looking for a place to stay in Rovaniemi, and want the privacy of a villa as opposed to a hotel. The villa was perfect for our family of 5 and in beautiful location from where we could go for lots of lovely walks , yet convenient to go into city when needed. It was spotlessly clean, and well equipped in every way . And a very responsive owner!! Thank you so much for a lovely stay!

    A great hotel centrally located in Rovaniemi town centre. Easy walking distance (even in minus 19 degrees) to the local shops, restaurants and lots of activities. If you want to go to Santa Park, or Santa's Village, the bus stop is literally alongside the hotel, and comes regularly. We had a great stay, comfy beds, lovely staff and great full breakfast included. There was really nothing more we could have asked for.

    The hotel, despite its remote location from the city centre and lack of public transportation options, is located in a natural forest park adjacent to a ski resort's chairlifts. The superior rooms and those offering views are notably pleasant. The restaurant and sky balcony have a very good view over the forest and Rovaniemi city. Both the breakfast and buffet (dinner) are commendable for their quality and variety.

    Warm, comfortable and clean guesthouse, very helpful staff and a really good buffet breakfast. Rooms are basic but warm and clean. There is a communal kitchen for use. Location is good - beside a supermarket and train station (and Santa bus stop) and 10-15 mins walk to shopping mall and museums and the walk along the river. The rate was very favourable compared to other hotels in Rovaniemi. Highly recommended.

    If you want to be in the heart of Rovaniemi, this building is exactly there. Close to the shops, restaurants, tourist agencies, etc when it’s cold that is important… no breakfast at the hotel itself but hostel Koti just across the street offers a basic but excellent price/quality breakfast that you can book via the hotel.
