    exceptional buffet
    personalized service
    limited menu choices
    activity scheduling
    basic amenities

    Staying in an Aurora Cabin surrounded by the stunning autumn colors was unforgettable. The food was exceptional, particularly the delightful buffet that showcased traditional dishes. The guided hiking excursion in the nearby national park was a highlight, as was the personalized service from the staff, especially the hotel manager who ensured a warm and welcoming experience. However, some amenities could be more varied, and the activity scheduling was slightly less flexible than expected.

    glass ceiling
    private sauna
    dining variety
    early housekeeping

    The location is stunning. Surrounded by a magical winter landscape with tons of activities right at your doorstep. I stayed in an Aurora Cabin. The glass roof provided an incredible view of the night sky. Watching the Northern Lights from my bed was surreal. The room had a private sauna, a perfect way to warm up after a day in the cold. The food was abundant. Each meal had good variety, though dinner salads could use a bit more creativity. I appreciated the effort the staff put into making our stay special. They were friendly and attentive, always checking to see if everything was okay. However, there were a few bumps along the way. During one evening, housekeeping barged in too early. That felt uncomfortable and disrupted my packing as I was leaving. The activities offered were fun, but prices were on the high side compared to local providers. I also wish there were more a la carte dining options instead of just buffets. Overall, a fantastic experience with room for improvement in dining variety and housekeeping.

    sauna cabin
    thermal overall

    The thermal overall gear provided was essential for our winter adventures. The sauna in our log cabin was a cozy retreat after outdoor activities! We enjoyed sledding on strong plastic sledges. the aurora alert device helped us see the Northern Lights, which was magical.

    cozy accommodation
    helpful staff
    expensive food
    limited meal options

    The experience at Wilderness Hotel Muotka was quite enjoyable with cozy accommodation and helpful staff, though the food was just okay and expensive for what it offered. The location is beautiful, but lack of options for meals and activities can add up quickly.

    higher prices

    Private sauna experience in rooms, stunning natural scenery, outdoor bonfire nights

    Housekeeping needs to be more consistent!!! The pricing for activities left me feeling frustrated, and the layout of the cabins could definitely be more intuitive for ease of movement.

    clean room
    varied activities
    stunning views
    limited seating

    great experience overall , but some minor improvements needed

    The room provided a wonderful retreat, with a modern feel and excellent cleanliness. The range of outdoor activities kept me engaged throughout my stay. Additionally, the buffet during meals featured fresh options that catered to various tastes. I also really enjoyed the stunning views of the surrounding nature , which added to the overall experience.

    The only downside was the limited seating arrangements in the dining area during peak hours.

    private sauna
    limited storage

    A cozy retreat in the snow

    We enjoyed the private sauna after a long day of winter activities. The staff was incredibly attentive, ensuring our every need was met during our stay.

    However, the room was somewhat cramped, making storage a challenge with all our winter gear. It felt slightly limiting when trying to get settled in.

    husky safari
    beautiful scenery
    endless outdoor fun
    limited amenities
    disappointing bathroom

    Had an amazing trip with friends! We met reindeer herders at a local farm and enjoyed a husky safari through stunning winter scenery. The atmosphere of the old forests during our snowshoe walk to the aurora camp was unforgettable, and the aurora hunt by car let us marvel at nature. This place offers endless outdoor fun!

    Our room was just average with limited amenities, especially in the bathroom, which was disappointing considering the price we paid.
