    Plenty of perfect food at breakfast time. The rooms with glass all round and long curtain, for instance. Marvellous location just next door to surrounding area, and bus stop. Also, in many different activities which are extra-paid.

    The room we got was stylishly decorated and looked brand new, and it even had a comfy bed 🛏️. the hotel is in a quiet area, but it's super close to the main restaurant, the husky safari, and plenty of other fun things to do around here.

    We had an amazing experience at Kakslauttanen Arctic Resort - Igloos And Chalets. The glass igloo provided a cozy and unique setting to watch the beautiful Arctic sky. The staff were friendly and welcoming, making us feel right at home. The activities offered, like husky sledding and snowmobile tours, were exhilarating and added to the adventure. The buffet breakfast was delicious and the dinner menu was outstanding, with a variety of dishes to choose from. Despite some minor design flaws, the overall experience was unforgettable. I highly recommend this hotel for a once-in-a-lifetime Arctic getaway.

    The location and views were spectacular. We loved walking around the facility and experiencing the layout of the resort. The chalet we stayed in had a beautiful view and was conveniently close to the restaurant. Everything inside the chalet was superb, including the a la carte dinner and breakfast. The staff was friendly and the half board option exceeded our expectations.

    Nothing not too like.

    Our stay at Kakslauttanen Arctic Resort was absolutely magical. We stayed in a large igloo for two people and it was perfect. The room was comfortable and had a toilet, which was convenient. The highlight was laying in bed and witnessing the spectacular northern lights. The resort is located in a beautiful, natural setting, and both the igloo and cabin accommodations were cozy and comfortable. The planetarium was also impressive. The staff went above and beyond to make our stay memorable, from the warm check-in process to transporting our luggage on a sled to our igloo. The excursions, such as husky sledding and aurora hunting, were incredible and made our holiday unforgettable.

    Can't recommend highly enough this hotel.

    The facilities and amenities at the resort were fantastic! The chalets were spacious and comfortable, and the small kitchen had all the necessary equipment. The saunas in the cabin were a great addition and very relaxing. The staff was helpful and friendly. The activities offered were well organized and cheaper than other resorts. The food, especially the vegetarian options, was delicious. a memorable and fun experience.

    The staff was always available and willing to assist with anything we needed.

    We had a fantastic stay at this resort. The dinner was very nice, and we enjoyed the free use of sleighs to move between the igloos and reception. The staff were extremely friendly and willing to help. The location of the hotel was great, with plenty of activities to do. We especially loved the snow season, it was such an amazing experience.

    There was nothing we didn't like.

    Free bunny ears on Easter Sunday, beautiful snowy surroundings

    The staff was unhelpful and dismissive, the food was sub-par for the price, and the igloo had poor lighting and uncomfortable beds. The location was also difficult to access with limited transportation options.
