This place is absolutely incredible! It was renovated late 2025 and the new restaurant etc is beautiful. The food is 10/10, staff amazing and the entire area and facilities are wonderful. Excellent activities available too and you can hire all winter clothing needed for free (if you come in winter). Also very close to Ivalo airport and easy access to Inari and Saariselka as well. Highly recommended!

Igloo was cozy and more spacious than I thought. The food in the restaurant was amazing (especially the vegetarian options).
Staff were friendly and the sauna/jacuzzi in the snow was a highlight. Sadly no Northern Lights, there was a lot of activity that week but too much cloud cover. Would definitely recommend.

The Aurora Village is 10/5 stars! While a smaller resort (about 28 cabins), there is nothing lacking all but instead adds to the experience. The staff easily remember who you are and treat you like friends versus some guest...whether reception, guides, or the restaurant. I'd like to give special praise to Elena & Annamarija who helped me book everything months in advance. Also two guides: Ruta & Niek - for snowmobiling, snow shoe hiking and cross country skiing. The owner took a group of us on a scheduled night snowmobile trip and he's terrific person from that experience. The cabins were cozy, clean, and warm. The restaurant food was terrific (I'm kind of a picky eater too). The Aurora Village was the best!!!

Magical place

Amazing two nights. Relaxed and peaceful atmosphere. Used both of the saunas and they were great. The food was absolutely delicious. Did not see any northern lights due to cloud cover but other than that our stay was perfect. If I had to think of one tiny little negative thing it would be the breakfast. It was still in the top 10 of hotel breakfasts but I have had better. And the cabins need a rug in front of the door or something to clean the snow off your shoes because the area really gets wet.

Great for viewing the Northern Lights!

The individual cabins are luxurious in their comfort level - heated floors and windows, snow shoes provided for walking around the hotel outside, and even a small reindeer park where you can feed the animals by hand. Although you can very comfortably watch the northern lights from the bed, you have to get lucky with the weather (cloud cover prevented us from seeing it during our stay). The breakfast and dinner provided in the common area is also very good (alcohol charge extra).

Excellent holiday village

My wife and I went to Aurora Village for 3 nights. The village contains glass cabins to facilitate occupants to see northern lights inside the cabin. The cabin is cozy and well maintained. The separate sauna cabin is new and is supposed to let occupants see the sceneries and also may be the northern lights. However, for all cabins, even a very tiny light such as a router indicator can get reflections on the glasses and so view is distracted. The weather during my stay was quite cloudy and foggy, but we are fortunate to see northern lights once, outside our cabin though. The crew team is very friendly and helpful. The chef is exceptional making delicious dinner everyday. If one wants to explore local areas, probably it would be better to hire your own car.

I don't usually leave reviews but this place is stunning.
The cabins are very cosy and have everything you need in them.. coffee machine, clean towels, hairdryer, comfy beds etc and the views from the glass roof is just amazing. We were lucky enough to see the northern lights on our first night. We also pre booked husky safari and snow mobile safari. Both were such good fun and organised so well. The staff couldn't have been more helpful.
We had breakfast and dinner in the resturant which were both really nice, the resturant area is lovely and cosy, with gorgeous snowy views.
We decided to get taxi's to and from the airport, there were plenty of taxi's waiting at the airport and they only charged 30e each way rather than the 80e the hotel charge.
Overall this place is amazing, one of the prettiest places i have ever visited. I would definately recommend it.

Magical Glass Igloo in the middle of Lapland

My boyfriend and I stayed here for one night and had the most magical experience. The cabins themselves are made up of half glass Igloo and half heated cabin which was perfect because you didn’t have to leave the comfort of your room should you wish.
The glass itself was heated which meant if it snowed the frost would clear and we would still be able to see the sky. This worked perfectly and we were lucky enough to see the northern lights during our stay!

The first day we went on a snowmobile safari which lasted two hours. It was such a thrilling experience! Abraham led the tour and stopped off at various points of interest along the way. He also gave us a great deal of information about the surrounding area & wildlife which was enjoyable hearing about.

On our return we were able to warm up by the fire in the centre of the restaurant. What was great was that the staff encourage us to treat the place like home. Taking off our boots & socks to really warm up. A nice personal touch!

Later that evening we booked dinner at the restaurant. The dinner was a buffet which was a little basic. This would perhaps be the only downside, along with the fact that there wasn’t much in the way of snacks after our experience. We were able to buy peanuts & crisps but they were €6 which I though was overpriced.

In the morning we were greeted by wild reindeer which was a perfect end to our stay. Very festive and magical.

Overall 10/10, highly recommend! We will be back!

Lapland için en güzel otellerden biri

Lapland gezimizin son gecesini Aurora Village’da geçirdik. Pek çok otele kıyasla daha maliyetli olmasına rağmen hem konaklama, hem hizmet hem de aktiviteler anlamında çok memnun kaldık. Çalışanlar çok güleryüzlü ve yardımseverdi. Yemekler çok lezizdi, genel olarak Lapland’de yemeklerden memnun olmamıza rağmen en iyisi burasıydı. Biz Aurora Cabin’de kaldık, çok keyifli ve kullanışlı tasarlanmıştı. Şansımıza gece kuzey ışıklarını odamızdan izleme fırsatımız oldu. ❤️ Aktivite olarak Barrel Saunayı tercih ettik, mutlaka öneriyoruz! Sadece aktiviteleri 1 hafta önceden rezerve etmeyi unutmayın :) Lapland’e tekrar gelsem yine burada kalırım dediğim yer kesinlikle burası, umarım tekrar karşılaşırız.

A nice stay around new year’s celebrations

We stayed in lodge 9, ”Issak”. Everything worked, but the layout and equipment in our lodge were clearly a Monday or practise samples compared to our friends’ lodge (nr. 28).

Our accommodation missed curtains to cover the windows and we didn’t have an active AC/heater. Also the bathroom didn’t have a proper mirror, which was a clear design flaw. All of the above had been corrected in our friends’ lodge on the other side of the reindeer enclosure.

Other than that, the staff were extremely nice. Activities were great. Food was exceptional. Breakfast and dinners left little to hope for. One of us is vegan and we simply could not have hoped for better attention to their diet.

Aurora Village is compact and beautiful. Everything inside the hotel’s premises is within walking distance. One can park the car right in front of the lodge.
