An amazing Hotel in a great set in a great position with great trips organised.
STUART, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel is very well designed (We saw perfect northern light on the 2nd night). Really appreciated the thoughtfulness of the facilities, friendly and efficient staff, excellently organised activities.
Shengnan, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great location at a great viewing point for the Northern Lights. Good access to Saariselka ski resort & toboggan run. Food is sub-par, so we ended up going to the village.

오로라를 보고싶다면 최적의 선택! 산 정상이라 석양 뷰가 아름답고, 바람이 심해서 구름을 날려버려서 한밤에 오로라 감상 가능합니다. 2일간 오로라캐빈에서 숙박하는 동안 모두 한밤의 오로라 쇼를 감상할수 있었어요! 연계된 액티비티도 가성비가 좋아요!

The hotel is in a fantastic location and the glass rooms are done really well. We were unlucky to not see the northern lights but we still had a great time.

Dinner options could have been a little better. All else was great at the property....5 stars!!!
Himanshu, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Hotelli todella kauniilla paikalla. Palvelu oli ystävällistä, huone siisti ja sänky mukava. Olisin silti toivonut näin korkealle hinnalle enemmän vastinetta. Esimerkiksi enemmän tilaa tavaroille, kuivaustilaa märille vaatteille ja laadukkampia kylpyhuoneen tarvikkeita. En myöskään kokenut henkilökunnan kohtelevan meitä mitenkään erikoisesti verrattuna siihen, miten muissa hotelleissa. Aamiainen oli loistava!

位置特別好, 我們待2晚出門即可看到北極光, 屋內很寛敝, 陽台可看到很漂亮风景及晚霞, 設備齊全有小廚房可以煮東西, 有機會還是會再訂此hotel ,早餐很丰盛, 晚餐很可口美味, 酒店還給20% discount 旁邊就是滑雪場, 觀賞美景的好地方
Hsiangchi, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

This is a premium hotel, located atop a hill with amazing views, offering accommodations and a myriad of activities for both couples and families. We had a room with sauna which was well worth it after a cold day full of activities. We area arranged 6 activities via the hotel. Our favorites were day and evening snowmobiling, huskies and snowshoing. There also is a ski slop and tobogganing up hill from the hotel. Take advantage of those. Last but not last, the staff were very attentive, friendly, and accommodating.

great experience

My stay at Star Arctic Hotel was one of the best experiences I had. I stayed the glass ceiling cabin which was very cozy and very clean. The staff was very hospitable and attending, they go above and beyond to help you especially Hanna. I would definitely recommend this hotel to my family and friends.

Really positive stay and we loved the room except for a few negatives: Tv is positioned way too high up to the ceiling. We could hear the neighbors in our room in the morning. Stairs up to the bed kind of almost damgerous Lobby is disappointing, only one couch to sit by the fire
