Perfect place!

친절한 호스트, 직원과 방문객, 깨끗하고 편안한 숙소, 무엇보다도 순수한 자연 경관을 그대로 지닌 최고의 장소입니다. 다시 핀란드를 방문하게 된다면 반드시 다시 오고 싶네요. 초등학생 아이가 너무나 좋아했습니다. 얼음 낚시, 얼음물 입수, 스키 등 여러 즐길거리가 있습니다. 여행을 종종 다니는데 이렇게 후기까지 자세히 남기기는 처음일 정도로 마음에 들었던 숙소입니다.

We felt at home right from the start. The surroundings, the peace and quiet, the food, the possibility to hire skis and snowshoes, the friendliness of all the staff and of course the northern lights and reindeer right on the doorstep. Simply a dream. We would love to come back and have already recommended it to others.

Ajaa asiansa jos on vailla yösijaa, henkilökuntaa näyttää olevan rajoitetusti. Joten ideana lienee asiakkaiden omatoimisuus, mikä ei tietenkään ole pelkästään huono asia. Sehän tuo tietynlaista rentoutta meininkiin.

レンタカーでないとなかなか行けないような場所にあるホテルでしたが、思い出に残るとても良いところでした。本当におすすめです！！ 1.お部屋について コテージタイプで寝室には大きな窓がありオーロラを寝ながら観察ができます。 お部屋の前には湖があり、真っ白な雪が積もった景色は格別でした。 キッチンも付いており、ケトルや電子レンジもありました。また、そのほかにもお皿やキッチンペーパーもあったのでお部屋で自分たちの好きなものを食べることができたので良かったです。ホテルの周りには何もないので、もしお部屋で食べる場合は事前にスーパーで買っておくのが良いと思います。 バスルームはトイレとシャワーが一緒になっています。シャワー後は水びたしになりますので、宿泊される方はビーチサンダルが必須です。 2.朝食について 15ユーロで食べることができました。 利用する場合は当日に支払いをすればOKです。 温かいメニューがあったので、嬉しかったです。 3.アクティビティについて ホテルの敷地内にトナカイファームがあり、チェックインの時にトナカイの餌やり体験を申し込みました。30ユーロだったのでリーズナブルでしたし、とても可愛らしいトナカイたちに癒されました。もし申し込みをされる場合は午前中の時間がおすすめです。夕方は夜のように暗く、お顔があまり見えないからです。 4.サウナについて 予約制でフロントで申し込みが可能です。 サウナの外には水のプールがあり、温まった身体をそこでリフレッシュすることができます。 5.オーロラについて ホテルの方がwhat's upのグループを作成しており、日々のオーロラ出現の可能性をこちらでお知らせしてくれます。残念ながら私たちが宿泊した2泊とも見ることができませんでしたが、それ以降も登録したままでいると、他の日はとても綺麗なオーロラがバッチリ見えてました！次に訪れる際はもうすこしゆっくり滞在したいです。人気のようなので、長く滞在を予定している方は早めの予約をお勧めします。ほんとにホテル以外は何もないところなので真っ暗な中でみれる環境は最高だと思います。
