The guesthouse itself. It looks much better in actual. Very warm and cosy. With glass walls, I was finally able to enjoy a good view of snow without getting cold. I arrived way too early. I just plan to leave my luggage and go to Santa Village but the host Jussi offered to take me to the village by car. Very accommodating. Really appreciated. Will definitely come back and stay longer. ❤️

The kindness of the hostess above all, the wild surroundings, the traditional sauna (with cold bath!), the simple yet cozy cabin, the fact that you can borrow snowshoes and skis, and the night sky views! We stayed one night and would have happily extended it if we had had the flexibility!

Boasting a sauna, GuestHouse Arctic Heart is located in Rovaniemi. Featuring a shared kitchen, this property also provides guests with a sun terrace. The guest house provides rooms with air conditioning, free private parking and free WiFi.

first of all it is perfectly located..like 300 meters away from the best spot to see the Aurora Borealis behind the Arktikum. also near city center, malls and restaurants. it s an easy self checkin and you won t deal with staff unless u need smth special. u will get instructions by mail and booking messages as for a 5 year old so u d have to miss ur brain not to manage. staff is great too, very polite. it is very clean, cosy, a lil bit rustic and feels like home. they have a big kitchen all equiped so if you want to cook ur own food it s a plus cause restaurants are very expensive. washing machines and dryer if u need to wash clothes for only 5 eur. bathrooms very clean and accesible. also a big living room with coaches and tv if u want to blend in with other ppl. i must mention the sauna wich is one of the best aditions and only 5 eur per person to use at any hour. just let the staff know and be fair about it. price was definetly not low compared to other destinations but compared to Rovaniemi and northern countries it was one of the lowest i could find. overall one of the best accomodations i ve ever stayed that gives you that magical Cristmas feeling even if it s not Cristmas and will definetly come back when visiting Rovaniemi. tottaly recomend it!!!

    The flat is very comfy and clean, nice designed has everything you could need. Super central location - short walk (5 mins max) away from city centre, main shopping centres and Arktikum museum! Sami and Tiina were lovely hosts, super accommodating and kind. Very responsive! I loved my stay - lovely flat. It was a bit too cold to enjoy the balcony but would be perfect to be on the balcony in summer! Highly recommended!
