Poor service and guesthouse amenities
The igloo was comfortable and smart. However, the wifi in our igloo was not working and the staff just said they can’t help it. They could have asked the service person for the igloo to fix it the next day. The traditional sauna was run down and not sealed, cold air kept coming in and there were no instructions to guide guests on how to use it. By the time we came, the fire was almost gone. We had to restart the fire ourselves and by the time the fire is up and warming the room, our time is up. The toilet in the guesthouse was also very basic and run down. One is small where your clothes might get wet. Lastly, it’s not very accessible and there’s only few buses to and fro Ranua per day. Be prepared to walk 15-20min to and fro the accommodation too.

Fantastic accommodation in the igloo. Can be slightly cramped at times but this is expected with the type of room. Fantastic staff/service with amenities on site.

The property is quite old. No lavatory inside the room so if you need to wash your hands nor get water, you still have to go outside. Also the space is so small inside the room. Bus station is 10 minutes away and there are only 4 bus schedules so you have to plan your trips.

Would highly recommend and cannot wait to come back. My husband booked an igloo for us for a long weekend in November for my 30th. The igloos were special, different and were located right on the frozen lake. They were private, quiet and had great views. The guesthouse had everything you needed from a restaurant, shower room, two saunas and firepit hut. The staff were so friendly, accommodating, welcoming and happy to help with anything. Breakfast was good. We didn’t make it to the restaurant but instead used the hut with a roaring fire where we cooked our own dinner which was lovely and unique. There at two saunas available which need booking an hour before use and were free any time we wanted. The choice of activities available were great, very unique and reasonably priced. The guide was amazing. All equipment was provided at no extra cost and we did each one just the two of us so it was like our own private activity. The guesthouse is around 1-1.5hour from Rovaniemi by public bus which was easy to get and stopped pretty much right outside. Thank you for such a wonderful and memorable stay.
