Out of this World
The most beautiful place on Earth!! Stayed in this most amazing hotel, small boutique hotel with 11 rooms, with all our children and grandchildren, 18 in total, and it was out of this World! Beautiful hotel, cozy and confortable, felt like our private villa. Amazing service, everybody so nice and attentive! It is a small hotel in a Private Island sorrounded by a frozen lake. The most beautiful scenery I have ever seen. Just to stay in Vartossiari is worth the trip to Lapland. Near Rovaniemi, close to everything. If you go to Lapland, this is the place to stay!!!!

Terrible for holiday
It's one of the worst places I've ever stayed at, paying this level of money.
As a result, we may need to check in early since we are arriving by plane. However, even though they have empty rooms, they charge an hourly fee for early check-in.
But this is not a problem either.
The rooms at the hotel are nice, although they have some problems.
It is in a bad location and they help with transportation. To go to the city center, you have to pay an average of 30 EUR one way.
One of the interesting issues is that they offer dinner service, but it is open buffet; Let's say they cook a meal like a salad and get paid for it. You can eat this meal unlimitedly, or you can eat in the city center by paying 60 EUR round trip. The choice is up to you. It is realy terrible. I paid 15-20 euros per person for a meal like potato salad.
There is no bar or any activity you can do in your location.
They have a small sauna and it is free and only open between 5 and 7 pm. If all the rooms come, they cannot use it.
You may be going for a holiday, but you have to wake up in the morning because breakfast ends at 10 o'clock. And it is better to go to breakfast at 8 o'clock. They never renew what's left for breakfast. You can't drink hot tea, and whatever food is left may have to be gnawed like a mouse.
There is a television in the room that you can view with a magnifying glass. If you get bored of the activities that are not available at the hotel, you can watch television with magnifying glass.
A hotel that is definitely not worth the money they charge. Frankly, if I rented a house and stayed there, I would have more options and pay much less.

Beautiful hotel that can’t be missed
I stayed in three hotels in Rovaniemi and this was absolutely the best out of the three.
The accommodations were fantastic (roomy bathrooms with rainforest shower heads and Babyliss hair dryers. Lovely designs for each unit and fantastic views from each one.
The food was also some of the best of ever eaten (out of every where, not just Finland) and the staff — Kyle, Anni, and the rest were friendly and fantastic.
Location: a beautiful private island that’s in the middle of a river and accessed by a suspension bridge is in a location close to everything in Rovaniemi. It felt so special to be there, that I cried in the cab as I was pulling away.
This will probably the only place I stay when I come back to Lapland.

Surbooking
Be careful which agencies send you to this hotel: they try to fill to the maximum and you end up with a room for 2 people (1 double bed) for 3 people. I travelled with exclusive Lapland (scandinavia) and for each group sent (1 group for 4 or 5 days), each time, 1 family is left behind.
We had booked a chalet with mezzanine or 1 double bed downstairs and a single bed for children upstairs normally. We had a room with just 1 double bed. When we made a claim, we were made to understand that we had no choice because the hotel was full, and we were brought a small mattress that they placed on a wooden bench not very wide, made to sit normally, under the window.... The mattress of course was laid half on the bench, half in the void and my daughter was afraid to fall, we had to sleep 3 in the bed 2 places. As for the agency, they played dead throughout our stay. For the Award paid, it is inadmissible. The other families who paid the same Award did have a room with mezzanine. And I knew that this incident happened several times before our trip and also after... There are 10th rooms in the hotel, so you have a 1 in 10 chance of getting screwed....
