The airport transfer takes about 10 minutes, and it's a short walk to Santa Claus Village (5-10 minutes). Nearby, there’s the famous Santa’s Salmon Place, also around a 5-minute walk.
At night, it can be quite dark, so a taxi is recommended if not driving. Most staff are nice, though there was some confusion regarding a 3-day, 2-night package that included complimentary main courses for both nights. Initially, it was misunderstood that it was only for one night, but after inquiring, one the staff quickly resolved it and made a reservation for us. But one of staff just rejected at the first time and made us confused. Breakfast was diverse and delicious.
The rooms are scattered across different areas, and some may be a bit far, requiring a short walk on gravel paths. Staff assistance with luggage during check-in and check-out is commendable.
Room cleanliness was slightly lacking, with hair on the bed and some debris on the floor, but it didn't greatly affect the stay. The glass-roofed igloos offer privacy with curtains, though light sleepers should be aware of morning light. Overall, noise insulation was good, and there was sufficient distance between rooms.
Overall, quite a special experience

Very convenient as it is located close to the Santa Claus Village but not easy to find the entrance and reception at night.
Room becomes quite tight when having an extra bed so might have issues if you have many luggages, especially for a family.
Fantastic breakfast spread and you can even make your own waffles as well.

在淡季來到試住冰屋,雖然看不到北極光,但也是一次很好的體驗。這𥚃很近聖誕老人村,很方便。

We visited this hotel in summer, though it is probably better to visit in winter. The hotel consists of lots of cabins (“igloos”) each of which has a large windows that in winter allow you to see the night sky, in summer it lets you see the midnight sun, which may or may not be your thing. The hotel is near Santa’s village (maybe a 5 minute walk) so very convenient for this attractions. It is about a ten minute drive (or Uber ride) from the town. Staff were friendly and the room was very clean.

The igloo is beautiful, we didn’t get to catch the aurora because it is too cloudy, the morning view is better than the night view. We had a pleasant stay

Overall it was a nice hotel with good service. Breakfast spread was pretty decent compared to your typical European breakfast variety. The main courses that is included in the booking was also not bad - we ordered the Scallop Risotto and Beef Tenderloin. The bed however was very soft, not for those who prefer firm mattresses. It was a pity as we couldn’t witness any Aurora due to cloudy weather so essentially it was cloud gazing instead of sunrise / star gazing / aurora sighting. Not sure if the area was actually able to view auroras as it was still pretty bright at night….

Its located within the santa claus village area, require about 400m of walk, passing by husky ride, roasted salmon, restaurants before you reach to santa claus's office.
We spent a night in the igloo, with standard western breakfast provided.
The only thing i felt dissapointed was that, they provide complimentary dinner(main course) for all guest, but we are not being informed from check in time, end up, we bought our dinner as take away from near by restaurant, and was told to order the main course when we collect room key at the reception.
Worst was, they dont provide room service, we have no choice to carry 2 plates of main course back to our igloo.
rest is good beside this.
