The apartment we had was perfect for 2 people. We spent one night but would have been perfect for a longer vacation. The resort is very easy to find and just 15 minutes drive from Saariselka. The sauna in the bathroom is functioning well, it also had a timer so we had it on when we came back from Aurora hunting and we could warm up before bed.

I had an amazing stay at this hotel! The breakfast was fantastic, and my room was a charming little cabin with a picturesque view. I particularly enjoyed the complimentary sauna, and my room had all the amenities I needed. The staff were exceptionally sweet, nice, and friendly, providing all the information we required. The check-in desk, located in a charming bar that even offers karaoke options, providing a fun tone right from the start.Plus, the proximity of restaurants to the cabin made dining out incredibly convenient. I highly recommend staying here for the great atmosphere, convenient location, and excellent service!

If you're going skiing, Saariselkä is a good option and you can stay there for a week, for example.
If you are looking for the Northern Lights, maybe 3 nights would be ok, but you you should pray for good weather, with clear skies, and , of course, for the aurora to appear.

Saariselka has everything you need for a winter lapland trip! The ski resort is at walking distance, there are more than three DMC's to chose from when booking trips, there are plenty of restaurants and pubs. THe supermarket is big for a small town and offers all you need. Note that you can't buy wine in the supermarket but there's a small store next to it called Alko where you can pick up a bottle of wine.

It is a small and quiet town. Air is very fresh. Trees with snow on it are very beautiful. You can have many snow activities here. If you stay several days and the weather is good, you may have opportunity to see Aurora.
Bus is very convenient. You can go from Rovaniemi. You can also take bus to Ivalo and Ivalo airport.
Restaurants are very good in this small town.

It is a very beautiful place, but it is expensive. I just stayed for one night in a beautiful cabin. I think that the food is ok and also there could be some more interesting things to in the Hotel do when it gets dark.

You can do many activities - skiing, biking, hiking, relaxing, observing, and enjoying Lapland nature. You have a big chance to see the Aurora Borealis. There is a very comfortable and understandable system of day huts and wilderness huts with essential equipment in and out of the national park — an excellent place for people who love nature.
Our stay here was everything we could’ve wanted and more! The hotel is very nice and had everything we needed, including activities like snowmobiling. the location is prime - it’s close enough to the village and in a good spot to potentially see the northern lights. The staff was exceptional, as was the breakfast! The Aurora cabin itself was beautiful and exactly what we were looking for! The snowy landscape was breathtaking of course, and the design of the whole hotel compliments it well.
This resort was more than our expectations. It’s not only for the cozy and wonderful igloo, but also every single requirement we asked. We travel with a kid and an old lady. Nina, Pasi, Hanna and everyone in the resort took care of us very well. We didn’t drive by ourselves, but the resort arranged the transportation for us and the driver was so kind and helpful. Btw, the food was the most delicious in Finland. Many thanks to AQ. We will definitely visit again.
The hotel is very well located in Saariselkä. The breakfast selection is great and top class. Everything you desire and need. The personnel is very friendly and service oriented. As many hotels in Finalnd, it would need a general renovation of the hotel as such , specially the rooms. Therefore the price -value is ok for Finnish standards, but in mid europe it would be a 2 star categorie due to the small rooms ( standard class) and the old outlook.
The staffs were very informative and very nice. The first 2 nights, we stayed in those huts with sauna inside and the third night upgraded to Kelo room with glass igloo and sauna. We had the reindeer aurora hunting at night which was an excellent experience and husky ride in the morning. Both activities were closed to the resort. The hotel is in a good location and we will go back again.
This villa offers everything you need for a cozy stay, including a spacious sauna, wood burning fireplace, full kitchen, comfortable beds and a stand-up dryer to handle.not only.your laundry, but to quickly dry your snow gear after a day on the slopes or trails. The bedrooms are actually much bigger than anything we've seen yet in Lapland and have very nice storage space included.
The apartment we had was perfect for 2 people. We spent one night but would have been perfect for a longer vacation. The resort is very easy to find and just 15 minutes drive from Saariselka. The sauna in the bathroom is functioning well, it also had a timer so we had it on when we came back from Aurora hunting and we could warm up before bed.
-The experience of being in the middle of nature and experiencing aurora boreal in addition to many other winter activities
-The staff was incredibly friendly and will drop/pick you up anywhere, very accommodating and open to help
-The hotel is efficient and well thought out. We loved having a sauna and jacuzzi
I loved everything about this trip. Your staff was wonderful and the front desk ladies were more than helpful! Breakfast was wonderful, as well as getting on the bus daily was so easy. I would suggest this hotel to anyone.
We had a great stay at Winter Nest. The cabin was clean, cozy, had a lot of space, the kitchen was well equipped, the sauna was great and easy to operate. We would book this place again if we ever returned to Saariselka.
Best hotel in Finland! Best service ever!! Everything is so perfect. Niki is sooooooo nice and thoughtful ! We couldn't have breakfast in the next day and then he prepared a huge bad for us!! Make me feel like home.
The hotel is at a good location and it is easy to find. The rooms are comfy and excellent beds, clean bathroom - also bathrobes available. Stable wifi. Friendly staff at the reception. No extra fee for parking.
Welcome champaign, private sauna in the cabin, 7-8 min drive to Kakslauttanen Arctic Resort if you wanted to see the original glass igloo, breakfast included but average, friendly staff
This was our 2nd Stay with Holiday Club Saariselka and we loved the convenience and the comfort of staying in the apartments of Holiday Club Saariselka
