Top Inari Hotel Reviews
Wilderness Hotel Inari & Igloos
"The place is beautiful but our bathroom smell like septic tank smell ."
Giellajohka
"A remote place but had everything you need. There's a restaurant and a hiking trail"
Holiday Club Saariselka
"Great location, great sauna, good breakfast, helpful staff, quiet & clean room, exceptional value for price. I was very happy with my stay at Holiday Club Saariselka."
Lake Inari Mobile Cabins
"Our trip to Inari was a trip of a lifetime. The Mobile Cabins on Lake Inari felt like a home away from home. Atte and Alexa were incredible hosts and it was the best experience I’ve had traveling aboard. Lapland is a place I will definitely return to! "
Holiday Club Saariselkä Apartments
"What an amazing place. We had one of our best family holiday's ever. The apartment had plenty of space for our family. The sauna was amazing. Staff were super helpful and friendly. Thanks for a great trip!"
Kakslauttanen Arctic Resort
"Amazing property"
Wilderness Hotel Juutua
"Mostly stunning. However, it's worth noting that this hotel is all about the glorious communal areas. The room (we went for one with a private sauna) was small, and pretty basic - with not even a bedside table on one side of the bed. No tissues in the room, and only a combined shower get/shampoo in the bathroom, if that sort of thing bothers you. These rooms also have a sauna building in front of them, so their view of the river is obscured. We were on a half board package. The food was superb - although it's worth noting the evening meal included is absolutely fixed. The bar has a good selection of drinks. All the staff were absolutely excellent. All personable and happy to chat. Breakfast buffet was also superb (with the exception of the coffee machine which wasn't a bean machine, and therefore the coffee was pretty naff) All in all - not a cheap stay, but a great hotel in a wonderful location - with amazing staff and great food"
Santa's Hotel Tunturi
"Amazing breakfast included in the room cost 7-10am, got a free upgrade to a suite with a personal sauna in our room, perfectly located in the middle of the village. Maybe 5-7 minute walk to the top of the village and 20th to the downhill ski resort. 3 min walk to the trails. Everything was amazing!"
Wilderness Hotel Nellim & Igloos
"Yes staffs was very friendly "
