Could not fault the whole experience, the TUI flight was festive with games, songs and Santa landing on the roof, the accommodation was perfect, we stayed in a log cabin which are out of the way and had such an authentic feel with it's own sauna, the cabin was warm, clean, comfortable and had everything you needed, even extra shower gel and shampoo. We really enjoyed the food even my slightly fussy 7 year old. The staff were welcoming and accommodating. There were plenty of sledges around and lots of mounds to play on. We loved our Santa day at the Snow Village hotel which was breathtaking, and the snowmobile trip to see the real Santa! He was so authentic! The supermarket is a short walk away and behind it is the frozen lake with the Yllas swing. We also visited nearby Konnijannka petting farm and the hotel booked our taxi. We loved every minute of our stay! Didn't feel busy or touristy which is just how we wanted it. 

Exactly as I imagined Lapland to be.

Booked through TUI, was supposed to be full board, but whilst there was a kettle and fridge etc in the accommodation, there was no tea, coffee etc. and was told to walk to the supermarket. As a single parent to a child with additional needs, this was not that easy. The rooms are warm and spacious. Beds were not comfortable. WiFi was great. Sauna was lovely and shower had brilliant water pressure. Food was okay, odd combinations but perfectly adequate. Full board only allowed soft drinks with breakfast, such as orange juice etc,  but nothing for other meals except water. Always had tea and coffee going in the main restaurant. Accommodation is spread out, so be prepared for a walk with your luggage and snow suits etc. The staff were great in the restaurant, very friendly and accommodating.

Good, but not what I was expecting.

A family trip of 6 to Lapland booked through TUI. 

First things first, Ylläs is an incredible and amazing area, it’s very remote but plenty to do in and around the surrounding area 

Transport isn’t a problem with coaches and plenty of taxis around to book, that don’t struggle in the snow! 

The hotel is good, our room was for 6 and had 2 bedrooms and a pull out sofa bed. The room also included a Sauna. Plenty of room given you’re out and about most of the day. 

We visited the Snow Village through TUI for half a day and that was a nice place to visit - Santa, Reindeer and Husky rides. I won’t write too much on TUI as this is about the hotel, but TUI were generally ok (over priced) but the Christmas Day Gala dinner is awful, we couldn’t even get a table. 

We booked a local reindeer and husky farm for a morning tour - fraction of the price of TUI and a great visit - kids could walk the reindeer and meet the husky’s in their cages. 

The food at the hotel was not great, however we expected this - very repetitive and won’t suit everyone. There are options if you walk out the hotel - burger and pizza restaurants, which are about £20 a burger a meal and £10 an alcoholic drink. 

Hotel has lots of sledges dotted around which people share and use on the big mounds of snow dotted around the hotel complex. My kids enjoyed this the most, sledging until 10pm at night. Day light in winter is limited to 10 - 3, but it didn’t bother us. 

The local supermarket is 15 minutes walk away, it’s best to get a sledge and pull your shopping back, much easier. 

Overall it was great and it is an amazing town to visit over Christmas. Everything was open Christmas Day, as in Finland I was told Christmas Eve is celebrated more - we went to the ski centre (Y1) on Christmas Day for sledging. 

A magical place and a decent hotel given its 3 star. The pictures don’t really do it justice on the website. However, food needs improving.

A wonderful visit

We stayed at this hotel - paid 6k for a family of 4 for a 3night stay 
TUI were terrible you constantly felt ripped off - after paying so much for 2 min husky ride - a brief 1 min meeting with Santa was really disappointing. We didn’t want to spend another 500euro to do a proper ride 

Santa village was incredibly average I’ve been to better set up’s in Ireland 
The snow was wonderful 

The hotel buffet was awful apart from breakfast - our kids ate only chips for 3 days as nothing really else there 

The highlight was the sledding which cost us 29euro per board in local supermarket. 

The final gala again terrible food and woeful entertainment. 

Finally our flight was at 1415 and we were dropped to airport at 10 -4 hours before the flight!

We loved Lapland but price was extortionate for what you got - DO NOT book with TUI from speaking sunway is far better organized! 


Don’t book with TUI

The cabin has one bedroom and a combined living room and kitchen. It is spacious for three persons. It is very clean. The kitchen has all the things needed for cooking, a waterboiler and a cofee maker. It also has own sauna.
Apart from the two single beds, the sofa bed was large enough for two persons. 
The breakfast had many variety of food incl. e.g., newly baked bread, smoked salmon.
Staff were friendly and helpful. 
There could be blackout curtains because the night is very bright in the summer.

A very good hotel

A wonderful, cozy hotel in the middle of a forrest, next to Akaslompolo lake. Nothing much around, which adds to the charm - ski tracks right next door to most of the rooms/apartments. Short walk to breakfast and the pool/sauna is an added bonus, even though all rooms/apartments have saunas. Fireplace in the apartment is lovely and adds to the coziness. Breakfast is plentiful and despite very large groups, there is a calm about the place (unlike the hectic and noisy Sirkantahti in Sirka/Levi). Alpine skiing is a short bus journey away. Kittila irport is about 1.5 hours away. Staff are wonderful and despite some rooms/kitchens in need of modernisation, it's a really comfortable place to stay. Much nicer than the Sirkantahti iin Levi (part of the same Laplands Hotel chain). WiFi is excellent throughout and there is an amazing smoked fish shop next to hotel reception.

Wonderful, cozy hotel

The cozy wooden lodge had everything we needed. The sauna was great and a perfect way to warm up after a day outside. The staff was able to answer every questions we had and offered everything we asked for. The area in total was magical. It is very close to the lake where you have a perfect chance to see polar lights. Price and service

Lovely Winter Holiday

Not a hotel as it is spread out into different buildings.  Rooms are not sound proof so you will need ear plugs. Food was dreadful. Hot choice wasn't.  It was barely lukewarm.  All staff were very friendly and helpful. Location is perfect and the scenery was amazing 

Lapland 

The hotel is in a good position, ten minutes walk to the local village but take a kick sled for a fun trip down. At -25C make sure you take ski gloves and a knock face cover, my eyes started to freeze by the time I got to the shops. 
The walk to the frozen lake is about 10 mins also and worth the trip. 
The northern lights were brilliant and apparently the best they’ve had for a while.
The food was excellent, don’t believe the other reviews. There is plenty for all and the breakfast has a lot of choice the salt cured salmon was my favourite but if you like cereal, toast or cooked breakfast you’ll be happy. 
The rooms were clean and the sauna was great, the rooms were always warm. 
We went with TUI and I have to say the reps were useless. When we go back I will book everything individually as it’s easy to get around on the ski buses and you can book excursions easily. 
I would suggest the reindeer excursion if you’re going to book one, it was a great experience on Christmas Eve through the forest it was
Magical.
The Christmas Day party was ok, this was heard at Y1 ski resort, the food was fine and the bar easy to get to (you pay for the drinks but they were slightly cheaper than the hotel). The party starts at 7.30ish and with little children it’s too late, we shared a taxi back with a couple who had a baby, €20 on Christmas Day I didn’t think was too bad.
This was our first trip to Finland and Lapland, we will be back. The hotel is nice and well placed, however I think we will try the Saaga hotel next, a short stop there and conversations around what it’s like convinced us that would be our next hotel.

Lovely Christmas spent in magical Lapland
