Stayed at the Riekonlinna early December 2007, travelling with Esprit. Hotel is warm and comfortable, but if you don't want to be changing in and out of the thermal suits, make sure your room or apartment is in the main building. The onsite Lapland Safaris team are great, and got us kitted out. Hotel location is great for the toboggan... more

This holiday was the best experience ever! We booked for 3 days through Santatrips.com and my only regret was not booking for longer. Everything about the holiday was so well run and thought out, I cannot fault anything or anyone. The hotel was beautiful; everything was clean and well maintained. The room had a mini fridge, TV, kettle with tea/coffee... more

The hotel is definitely not a 4 star as rated by the travel agent. Although clean, the facilities were basic and the food very average. The location is very good -... more

Stayed here December 2006 with Esprit. Lovely clean hotel and friendly staff. Rooms were very warm and cosy and spotlessly clean. Stayed in a type B room with one bedroom, sofa bed and sauna. Plenty of room even with sofa made up as a bed. French windows opened onto balcony with lovely view of wooded area. Highly recommended. more

There is a computer to use freely to keep in contact with the outside world! The hotel is in a small village in the... more
