I really enjoyed our stay at the Guest House. It was an incredible few days in Rovaniemi that I will cherish forever in my memory. The accommodation was simply spectacular, and the bed was super comfortable. The hosts were very welcoming; he picked us up at the train station and even gave us a ride back to the bus station on our departure, in addition to helping us with various questions about transportation and other things. My husband and I loved the city of Rovaniemi and our stay at the guest house. I am very grateful to the hosts for their hospitality.

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!

Thank you so much for the warm hospitality
