These well appointed, semi-detached traditional cabins are colourfully painted and attractively furnished throughout, making for ideal family accommodation in cosy and charming traditional Lapland style.

This delightful little ‘holiday village’ of cabins was recently built in the quiet Ounasvaara area of Rovaniemi at the foot of the ski area, handy for tobogganing, and just five minutes easy taxi ride from the resort centre. Naturally all our transfers to and from the airport and all the activities stop right here for your convenience.

The Red and White Cabins are slightly closer to the main restaurant building, whilst the slightly larger and newer Yellow, Superior Red and Traditional Log Cabins are the other side of the complex, across the road.

Hotel Santa ClausThis attractive and comfortable four-diamond hotel is the best in Rovaniemi for service, style and location. It has to be the shoppers’ choice too, as it is situated in the pedestrianised area of the resort, adjoining the modern shopping mall with its many boutiques, craft shops and restaurants. The adjacent toy shop even offers hotel guests an area for children to play in during normal opening hours!

The hotel’s excellent restaurant has won Finland’s top award and a popular dinner choice in the resort with locals and visitors alike. The more casual Zoomit café/bar is fabulously located for people-watching through its floor-to-ceiling windows, overlooking the corner of the lively and bustling street outside.
A choice of well appointed bedrooms is available as follows.

Type A Bedrooms, sleep 2-3 – double rooms with single sofa bed, bath/shower, wc, TV, tea/coffee-making facilities, minibar and hairdryer.

Type B Family Bedrooms, sleep 3-4
– larger twin bedroom, with a corner sofa-bed ideal for one adult or two children under 12, and facilities as Type A.

Type C Family Suites, sleep 4-6
– two Type A rooms joined by an inter-connecting door.

Type D Family Bedrooms, sleep 3-4
- these deluxe rooms have the same configuration and facilities as Type B but are newly built and have the added benefit of an en suite sauna.
