"Centrally located, walking distance to many restaurants. Johi at front desk was helpful and welcoming. Breakfast spread could have been better. Only downside is the sound proofing from level above wasn’t great. Could hear kids running around till late night. Overall would recommend this hotel, plus they have free parking for guest unlike other hotels that would charge guest."
"Arctic City Hotel is located in the prosperous city center, surrounded by many food markets and shopping malls; it is adjacent to a quiet lake; the rooms are exquisite and comfortable, clean and tidy; the beds are very comfortable to sleep on, it is worth mentioning👍 The breakfast is rich, thoughtful and has hot food , frozen food, fruits, cheese, coffee, etc.; don’t miss it!"
"Santasport Hotel is an integrated resort with accommodation, trekking, skiing, bike riding, snowboarding and many other winter activities. They have track for all the activities and it was an enjoyable trip to explore the woods during winter.
The hotel has a bowling alley, swimming pool and sauna. It also has a cafe
Checking in and out was a breeze and the staff are friendly and helpful. They attend to all guests need and never fail to impress.
Room size was reasonable and they also have a clothes drying cabinet. Bed is comfy and I had good sleeps. Breakfast was good with quality soread.
Will return to Santasport Hotel if I come for my winter holiday in Rovaniemi."

"** it is 30 min drive from the rovaniemi city center, about 50 euros on uber. however you get to live close to the trees and lake without much light pollution/ crowds, i managed to peek a little bit of aurora during our stay.
** very friendly and helpful staff and hotel owner. he even helped me pick up a failing toy drone in the middle of the frozen lake. <3<3<3
i do love this place"
"In the mountains~
It is more convenient to drive by yourself!
There are not many people, very quiet~
It takes about half an hour to drive from Santa Claus Village
Drive into the woods of the hotel. There is a kind of lonely beauty!! It is also very mysterious...
There are also deer in the hotel!
It’s a pity that I didn’t see the northern lights this time"
"I can only say that I must stay here next time. Friends who have cars, don’t hesitate. There is no need to spend a lot of money to live in the city. It’s a 10-minute drive. This hotel really surprised me. It’s quiet and the environment is so good. I didn’t expect it. For 100 yuan, you can live in a detached building with a sauna. It has parking for everything and is convenient. My only complaint is that the bedding is not as warm and thin as in the hotel. The thin layer is not enough for two people. It is a bit simple."
"Apartment is located close to the city center, about ten minutes' walk. Before check-in, you will be sent an SMS and email with a password about your check-in at about 3 pm. The overall facilities are complete, including a frying pan, cups, dishes, knives and forks, a vacuum cleaner and an electric iron. Definitely the first choice for long term stay"
"The hotel has no front desk or service staff. It is an apartment hotel and requires self-service key collection. The facilities in the room are rich and convenient, but the cupboard of the room I stayed in had three buckets of garbage left by previous guests. It smelled like it had been rotting for many days:( We stayed with the garbage for one night"
"The front desk of the hotel is very friendly. The environment and facilities are very good. It is close to the street and is very convenient. There is a bus to Santa Claus Village near the hotel. It is very convenient. The hotel's breakfast is very rich. Highly recommended."
"Accommodation environment facilities are also good ~~~~
The room is ok too ~~~
The customer service also provided the hotel check-in information in advance ...
Chance to choose this one again ..."

Outstanding
ZZihui_sweeThe best hotel in Santa Claus Village. Their services are excellent and the room itself is really spacious and cosy.
Beautiful scenery around the hotel, everywhere is instagrammable. Their breakfast is delicious ! I enjoyed sauna in my room. The location is nearer to the Santa Claus village. Please choose this hotel is you want to have a good time there.
RRayIts 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.
EErnestExcellent location, within 10 minutes walk to nearby supermarkets and bars. Bus stop for taking buses to Santa Claus Village and Railway Station is also nearby. Right next to the hotel there’s Beyond Arctic Adventures where we booked our Northern Lights Tour.
Breakfast buffet wasn’t a huge spread but still a pretty good selection overall. No hairdryer in our room, and the heater wasn’t really working. There’s a shared kitchen as well so we were able to cook our own meals.
AAnonymous UserThe first row of igloos by the lake, the sky is full of stars at night, it is very beautiful, the Big Dipper and the Ursa Major constellation are very clear, but unfortunately the clouds are a bit thick and we cannot see the aurora. The white patches of snow on the lake are great during the day. The sunrise in the Arctic Circle in winter is slanting up and setting, which is very interesting. The sauna in the room is small but effective, and the breakfast is also very good. It was very convenient for us to drive here. We also went to a nearby supermarket to buy late-night snacks and cook them ourselves. The kitchen supplies in the room were full.
TTERRYVery nice cottage, and big. Even though I travelled solo, I could see the space is comfortable for 2.4 persons. Service of staff is good, they don't volunteer information but if you asked they respond in very friendly way. Breakfast was average, both in terms of spread and quality. As the village was so quiet during the time I stayed (beginning of Autumn), I didn't try their restaurants for other meals, choosing instead to go to city center. Facilities-wise this is a resort, and there was no help to get your luggage to your room which is a few minutes walk. you can pay for it. Also, no transport to city provided by hotel. You need to take public transport.
兔兔兔愛睡覺The environment is very good, but it is a bit far from the city center and you have to take a taxi to get there. There is a supermarket for supplies in about 20 minutes' walk. The chalet is close to the ski slopes, perfect for those who want to ski for hours with ease. The restaurant provides a simple breakfast, which is the same every day, so the small kitchen in the wooden house is very important. You can cook some simple meals by yourself with basic utensils😙 Finally, we also successfully chased the Northern Lights by the lake
Kkk85This hotel was in a great location, very convenient to get to the local tourist companies for excursions. Breakfast was typical buffet but plenty of choice. The room was a little small but had everything we needed. Staff very helpful. I'd stay here again. Photo is the view from our room window.
GGuest UserIt was helpful that they kept our luggage even before check-in. There were a few clumps of dust in the bathroom, but the room was generally clean and nice! There was a wide variety of breakfast options, and we enjoyed it. Santa Claus Village is easily accessible from the bus stop about a 10-minute walk away. There was also a supermarket about 10 minutes away from the hotel, which was convenient.
GGuest UserA lovely cosy place to stay, however the location really is in the sticks where transport is limited to around 3 buses to or from the city with the last bus arriving at 7pm. But the room was great and extremely warm in the minus 15 degrees temperature.
OOuzhousheyingtuanyixianshengThe room is nice, parking is free, clean and fully equipped. There is a Chinese restaurant nearby called Greater China, and the buffet is 17.9 euros per person. Accommodation is expensive in this place.
