place is ok but way too expensive for what it is
So the place is pretty nice, we had a chalet for 6 person with sauna which are in a cute little red house. However, the room was noisy as we heard the road, the beds upstairs were noisy and not that comfortable, the shower was hard to use. The sauna was good. There was a lot of people at breakfast, but the breakfast itself was good. The bathroom needs a makeover.

Great staff, tired property
This might be a fantastic place to stay for skiing but it was a little disappointing in summer. The staff and breakfast were lovely, but our cottage was rather shabby, cramped, and badly situated far from the water and close to a loud, busy road. It was nice to have a kitchen since the restaurant has a pretty limited menu and seating area.

Great breakfast and burgers but no sledging!
Lovely wooden chalets near a lake and ski slope, but no sledging at all allowed and we’re no skiers, so that ruined the holiday for our family. The buffet breakfast they put on is epic. You can make your own pancakes, there’s eggs & bacon, breads, cheeses, meats, cereals, really nice coffee and gluten free options too. Gorgeous dining room and we are in the “restaurant” a few times. It’s only a bar menu, so burger and chips or a toastie but the burgers were really nice. Beer is expensive, €9 odd for a pint!

Great place, would definitely return
Staying in the Superior Chalet and while it was at the back of the plot close to the road, there was very little traffic noise. The only noise came from the attached chalet so the claim of soundproofing is not accurate. Comfy beds, comfy living space, good location for walking and skiing. Good breakfast, lot's of choice, get's quite busy later on. Staff were really helpful and friendly. Highly recommend for couples or families.

Nice stay - more COVID precautions needed
Stayed in a Standard Chalet with Sauna for 5 nights and had a great stay. Staff were friendly and location was ideal for skiing. The chalet was clean and staff were serious about COVID prevention. Breakfast was served buffet style, which is potentially dangerous with COVID, but there was lots of hand sanitizer. Only some guests wore masks when dishing up food at breakfast, which made us anxious. Mask-wearing should be enforced at the buffet and in the common areas. Highly recommend for families and anyone looking to enjoy a quiet time in Rovaniemi. If staying at the chalets, I would recommend having a car, as the nearest grocery store is 20 minutes away on foot.

this is a ski resort and accomodations are traditional wooden chalet style dotted around the resort. very clean with some modern facilities, we staued in junior suite and it was by the frozen river and was very roomy and clean with beautiful scenes just outside the rear doors. sauna was massive and had 3 showers! mind you the floors and walls might create some weird knocking noises all night if you get the heating setting up too high. breakfast was a plenty with lots of choices but staff had no smiles on face and did not talk much. during busy times they just kept taking away old plates etc but did not refill any empty food trays or breads, and when I asked if there were anymore hot milk for coffee was told just to use cold milk insted. ski resort was very good and family friendly. staff was great and booking ski rentals etc was a pleasant experiences. would recommend.

Overall it’s a nice chalet. Comfortable for 5 of us. It would have been better if there’s more hooks around for us to hang towels and clothes. We also asked and paid for additional daily cleaning but surprised to see that the sink and dishes were not cleaned and used cups and mugs were still on the living room table when we came back. It’s all a bit confusing on what’s really included in daily cleaning. In the end they waived part of the additional cleaning fee.

Great location, 15 minutes drive from the airport and about 5-10 minutes from the main city. Right at the bottom of the Ounasvaara ski slope. Rooms are cosy and comfortable and wi-fi signal very good. Kitchen area in cabins is very small with no draining board area. Could do with some additional coat hooks inside the front door but plenty of storage space. Stairs are very steep to the upstairs room but do have a stair gate if you were worried. Staff polite and helpful and breakfast had a very good selection. Dinner options are somewhat limited on the a la carte menu and buffet but food is good. Not much for vegetarians other than the obligatory vegie burger. Godd value overall and a lovely place to stay. 20 minute walk to nearby supermarket too.

The chalet is very clean and cute design. Feel like a proper holiday home with the design. However, it feels very compact and small for 6 guests. 4 bed cramp in one small bedroom leaving hardly any space to move around. Kitchen is not very equipped even though it was advertised as well equipped. Kettle wasn’t working. But the staff is very friendly and the overall experience is good.

Nice Chalets , poor communication
Great reception on arrival , Chalets were really clean and in a very nice setting near a ski slope.They are not soundproofed as mentioned in the write up, one reason why we booked nor are they in a quiet area,not much to do if you don’t ski .taxi 15 euro each way To Rovaniemi. Breakfast was Very good, great choice and nice staff. dinner is 35 euro per person.We ate in our chalet as we felt that 105 euro was expensive for evening meal . There is a nice cheap cafe at the ski area for a cheap lunch.We were unfortunate to have really noisey neighbors who liked to shout,play loud music , swear , slam doors, Partying,make as much noise as possible.this really spoilt our holiday, especially with a young child with us . I understand that the hotel can not control who they have staying , but the way they handled it was shocking, telling us we had to call the police and they couldn’t do anything. We were on holiday in there accommodation yet they couldn’t help us,we found this strange and we were thankful when we left and nothing got out of control, being in a foreign country and not speaking the language worries you . I would not recommend this place,for that reason you want to feel safe and we didn’t, my granddaughter was frightened, we also spoke to reception and they also showed no care factor.There is no offer of help for luggage either,No tea or coffee, or small touches like you get with most hotels. Stay at Santa Claus village it’s awesome, and has special touches secure feeling

Hello, thanks for this feedback. I'm so sorry that you had those noisy neighbours. I spoke to them on next morning and they were very sorry about for disturbing your sleep. I think the staff who told you to call the police was not from our reception but some other hotels where all phone calls to our reception during 23.00 - 07.30 will be transfered. We have already given some instructions to all hotels how to handle this kind of situations. About the luggage handling it is true that we don't have any personel to take care fot that. So, finally once more I would like say that we are really sorry that your holiday was not what you expected.

Very nice, pleasant facility. Staff was very friendly and helpful; they bend over backward to help you. Facility is out of town and fairly distant from local restaurants which wouldn’t be a problem if facility’s restaurant was open for all guests. Perhaps most guests have a car which we did not. Dinner is for groups only, at least when we were there.

We want to go back in winter
We arrived just after 10am & were able to check in early, which was great. There were three of us (one couple & one other adult). The layout for our 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom chalet was a little odd in that to get to the second bathroom we had to walk through the first one, but there was a door that went outside from the second bathroom so we just used that if the other bathroom was being used. We were in chalet 74, right on the river & our own sauna. The resort restaurant & large wood sauna is about 40 mts away. The views from our two decks were just fantastic. The first night we cooked reindeer burgers on the bbq, & the next two nights bought dinner from the restaurant & eat it on our deck. The food was great & obv popular with locals. There weren’t too many foreigners there, but it was really busy. We did enjoy seeing how Finns holiday. We had taken LOTS of insect repellent, & did put it on, but were pleasantly surprised at the lack of sand flies & mosquitoes. It would be amazing to see it in winter.

A Perfect Weekend
An amazing hotel, so happy that I booked to stay here. I read reviews where some commented that they saw the Northern Lights from the chalet - and we did, overlooking the lake next our chalet. An amazingly comfortable and clean superior chalet, 11 - 15 mins from Rovaniemi Airport and Santa Village, Arktikum museum. Beautiful to be next to the ski slope, a wonderful breakfast and kind, friendly and helpful staff! We hope to come back!

All we hoped for & more
The Chalet Hotel was a fantastic place to spend our first winter holiday. The price was very good and we had our first skiing experience at the Ski resort just behind our hotel. The rooms are very clean and cosy with a comfy sofa and bed. It was nice to see a Christmas tree from our window which was lit up. We did plenty of Activities through Lapland safaris which were amazing but also ideal as they picked us up from the hotel reception. We had a magical holiday.
