A truly unique and memorable stay. The ice sculptures are stunning and create an incredible atmosphere, and it’s a great spot for seeing the aurora if conditions are right.

Just note that half board dinner in the ice hotel requires an upgrade fee, and you’ll need a car or shuttle to get there as there’s no public transport.

Definitely a one-of-a-kind experience.

The glass houses are located in an area where you have to drag your suitcase through gravel. It makes it hard to get to. Rooms are small but fine for a 1 night stay. Breakfast was good. Dinner in the ice restaurant is cold as you can imagine and food is ok for the cost. Drinks on the property are expensive.

Super unique and fun experience! We stayed in the private heated igloo and loved it! Once in a lifetime trip, tons of activities on the property and things to do. Would recommend 2 nights in igloo but nothing more than that. We did both restaurants, the ice sculpting class, sled kicking, marshmallows by the fire etc.

Great experience

Rooms are little small compare to other competitors. Also hot water for showers aren’t really steady for long time. 10-15 minutes is at best, any time longer you are at risk of cold shower. Breakfast aren’t as good as other competitors.

Igloos all around us had their lights on though out the night therefore when you were lying in bed all you could see was their light reflections. For the price being charged the accommodation was not worth it & very very disappointing.

The Ice hotel/bar was incredible!!! You can walk through and view the rooms and ice dining. We stayed in an igloo and saw the Northern Lights. They have an alarm that alerts you if they appear. Theres a great sauna to use also. I loved this property! We stayed in the Igloo one night and it was perfect!

Unfortunately couldn't see the northern lights. We did the ice sculpting but was given no instructions. You have to have reservations for the restaurant but there's no where else to really to eat near by. The igloos were nice for two people, clean and warm. Overall it's a good experience, but overpriced abd don't expect to see the northern lights.

We paid €732 for one night and it wasn't worth that much, the igloo was nice and beds very comfortable. I don't what I expected but it was way to much to pay for a night.
We tried to go to the sauna and we couldn't, we tried to go into the sky bar and there was a private event on so we weren't able to go in at that time. Is this worth going, yes but not €732 worth.

Beautiful views and amazing food.

We enjoyed our stay. It was in the glass igloos with a beautiful view of the night sky and auroras.

The icy surroundings was surreal, the sauna on an icy evening and sitting by a fire beside the frozen lake. Beautiful spruce trees bending due to the snow surround the hotels.

I am a vegetarian so all needs and allergies were cared for. The travel was smooth due to shuttles from the hotel.

Do it!

Incredible set up to watch the northern lights from bed.
Went in autumn so snow hotel was not available.
Would recommend more activities available like fishing rods, kayak as it’s far out of town so when you are there you are there with little to do.
Also, timing of saunas are late, pop up ice bar so having it more available to guests.
Shuttle runs more frequent.
All in all, highly recommend - it’s an unforgettable experience

Staying in the ice hotel in sleeping bags was not enjoyable. Went to the bunk beds but could not get any sleep as people kept constantly coming in and out. They should provide beds separate from the locker room. It was nice they had normal bathrooms to use during the night. Expect not to get any sleep if you are going to go this

We’ve never paid so much for such an uncomfortable experience.
The check-in time stipulated on Expedia is a lie - you do not have access to your room until 9pm when the public stops walking through the hotel. Until this time you have to bide your time in the property where you have to spend money if you want anything - even a cup of tea.
The ice hotel is a novel experience - but in actuality the night was very uncomfortable and definitely not worth the price tag

The property is secluded and about 30 mins away from city center. It is in a nicely quietly situated area. The goal of the trip was to hopefully see lady Aurora and to stay in an igloo. This resort met those expectations! I was very fortunate Aurora did her show right above my igloo! What a dream that was. I know Lady Aurora is a natural phenomenon, I was just very fortunate she did her show the night I stayed. I liked how the hotel offered the snow tubing and was able to walk on the frozen lake! It was truly a winter wonderland. They also included the Arctic snowhotel tickets in my stay which was a plus. I dined in the Ice restaurant for the experience and truly did not disappoint! I would stay at this hotel again!

Alternative one night experience!

The igloo is a nice experience to sleep in for one night (in the hope to see the northern lights), however the price is not worthy for the space and comfort of the accommodation. The breakfast had a large selection of high quality food, the staff was friendly and the cocktails at the Skybar were nice. The parking for cars was a bit too far from the igloo, especially with adverse weather conditions.

Pros
Awesome and unique experience staying in a glass igloo in Lapland! Good open area to see the aurora and a nice lake onsite. Resident reindeer. Aurora alert in your room.

Cons
Expensive
You can't be inside the igloo during the day if it's sunny or a little warm outside because it got so crazy hot in there! There is no cooling, only a small desk fan. Went to reception and was told to keep the igloo door open. This did very little and meant there was zero privacy as the next igloo looks straight in. The igloos are very close together!
The resort is completely away from any facilities, and there is nothing to do unless you have a car (which we did) or go on a tour. A walking track is needed as the surroundings and lake are so pretty.
Breakfast has many ok options, but is the same everyday and even if you're there on opening, the hot food is only warm.
Thel communal sauna is only open after 9pm.

Would I stay again? Probably not.
Would I recommend staying here? Absolutely! But just be aware of the cons ;)

Absolutely loved everything about this place. We stayed in the igloos which were very clean and a bit like upscale glamping. So cozy and fun. It had limited eating options, but it didn't matter at all. There were so many fun activities (both free and with charge) that we were busy all day the days we stayed. The staff completely made our stay. They were fun, friendly, helpful, and even gave us ideas and ways to change schedules around to accommodate some things we ended up wanting to do. If and when we travel to Finland again, this would be the one repeat we would definitely do!

Wow, what an experience!! The facilities were excellent, great choice of food in the buffet and glad we paid extra for private sauna and jacuzzi as this gave us a private shower. The only issue we had was by the time we went to get our sleeping bags all of the larger ones had gone sadly which meant my partner of 6ft 1inch did not have adequate bedding and we ended up having to use 2 smaller ones for him which was not ideal in such cold temperatures. The staff were all so helpful and we would definitely recommend a stay here.

Adventure to remember

Amazing experience. Experience of a lifetime, must do. The hotel is maintained at 10-15C above the outside temperature. Feels cold through your time there, but sleeping bags (with fleece) is pretty warm once you get in. Must do sauna. A couple of warm rooms with provision for sleeping there too (though not required). Good breakfast spread with vegetarian options.

The glass igloos are absolutely amazing and so cosy and warm. So nice to come in to after being out in the cold all day! The SnowHotel is so fun to look around, it’s really cool how you get to see all of the themed rooms before guests show up for the night.

The restaurants were lovely, we had dinner at the SnowHotel which was an amazing experience and the breakfast buffet the next morning was delicious and varied. There is also a public sauna which I thought was great as it was free. The Aurora Alarm is an added bonus in each room - it’s good to know you won’t miss it because you’re asleep.

I would definitely recommend this property - it was romantic and a once in a lifetime experience set in an absolutely stunning backdrop of Finnish forest.

This was a beautiful property but I think I just stayed at it during a less-than-ideal time (construction, transition from autumn to winter weather). The room was a great size, facilities were clean, but as it is pretty remote of a location and it is a 40euro RT trip into town, I wish there were more on site options for food/beverages besides the dinner reservations. Even a fridge with grab and go would have been nice. I also wish the public/free sauna was at more convenient times during the day and not just later at night only at 9pm.

I used the airport shuttle and the shuttle to/from town and those were always on time with friendly drivers.

I would definitely stay again if I wanted to catch the auroras, I would just prepare a bit more for having a rental car to go into town or more food and beverages in the room.

This property is amazing. The northern lights alarm works well and we were lucky enough to see them thanks to the alarm. Breakfast was great. Only downside is the location. It’s quite far from town, so need to pay extra anytime you go anywhere, a lot of tours either won’t collect you or will charge extra to. The dinner is very specific, you need to pre book and I would say it is not for everyone. There is nowhere else around to eat, so you need to pre prepare if you want other food. There is a shuttle bus, but it also runs at very specific times. Having said that, it’s an amazing experience and the accommodation facilities are excellent.

One of our best trips!

Cannot recommend this place enough. We stayed in one of the igloos, with superb views through the glass ceiling of the northern lights (spotted thanks to the Aurora alarm in the room!). The room was very warm, which is definitely needed, and clean on arrival. Bed were comfy, but slight shame it’s twin beds pushed together, although having the ability to raise the back and legs was a nice touch. Not much storage in the room but a minor detail.
The staff were so friendly, accommodating to everything we asked about, full of recommendations and eager to help. The breakfast was also delicious and plentiful every morning. Kota restaurant was good and worth a try but we did have better food elsewhere, in and around Rovaniemi.
All the activities we did were so much fun and we loved every moment. Highly recommend the Bearhill Husky experience, reindeer farm visit and a traditional Finnish sauna.
Overall, a superb stay and would love to go back!

Awful experience - overpriced & false advertising

An awful experience. The website markets the glass igloos as ‘see everything, 360 degree views of the arctic skies’ - we couldn’t even see out of the igloo never mind to the sky! The glass was completely frozen over (see images) and when I informed reception they said they would turn the heaters on which would clear the ice. 2 hours later the ice hadn’t cleared and I informed reception again who came to take a look and said ‘the heaters for the glass aren’t very strong’. The toilet attached to the igloo also had a strong unpleasant smell - I can only assume it hadn’t been emptied after the previous guest. Breakfast was ok, buffet style. Taxi / shuttle from the centre / airport to the location is expensive at £30 per head. Not recommended, there are other igloo hotels that I imagine will be much better.

Also, I wouldn’t expect to see the northern lights (even if you pop your head out of the ice river igloo) - the man who did a presentation on the ice hotel told us they have only been visible once in the last 18 months.

We stayed one night in the glass igloo during autumn, so the SnowHotel was still under construction and, according to one of the staff, set to reopen in a few weeks. Even so, the experience was lovely and memorable. The igloo was cozy and warm, though a bit tight for three people. At night, we didn’t get to see the northern lights or stars, but the view of the moon and quiet Arctic sky was peaceful in its own way.

The pop-up ice bar was a fun surprise — I had a lingonberry gin there and it was fantastic! The shared sauna beside the restaurant was also a great way to relax before bed. Although we had to leave early for Tromsø and missed breakfast, the reception staff thoughtfully prepared a packed meal for us.

The weather wasn’t ideal, but that’s part of the Arctic charm. Overall, it was a unique experience and the staff made it even better. I’d still give them 5 stars! 🌙
