The location was perfect. It was far enough away from the road but not remote. The entire staff was delightful, informative and made us feel at home. The food was top notch - could deserve a Michelin rating!

So great to watch the northern lights without any hassle. Just above you while you are on bed or few steps from your cabin. Just install the northernlight alert app and go enjoy your stay within the premises , it will sent alerts for the area you’re in and that’s what we did. Realy great experience and so magnificent to see the dancing colorful northern lights . Breathtaking . The location is perfect away from the city however the city center is not too far only around 5-6 kilometers.

This was a lovely place to stay.
This was a lovely place to stay. Bigger than some Lapland places we have stayed in but not too big. Probably around 5/6 restaurants and pubs, a really good supermarket and alko shop.
Only a 5 min bus ride from the north slopes of Yllas ski resort and plenty of outdoor adventure companies providing the standard stuff - snowmobiles, huskies, northern lights etc.

Great amenities including an extensive network of cross country ski trails with a supermarket, a few shops, restaurants and sports shops in the centre and amazing boreal forest all around. Known as The Village Surrounded By Seven Fells (hills), Äkäslompolo is a place where you can ski and ski, easily getting away to more remote places. There are small cabins dotted about in the forest (all well signposted) where you can buy food and hot or cold drinks (or even stay the night at some) and others where there are fire pits and traditional "kota" shelters where you can rest, warm up and cook sausages. Great for adults and kids alike. Some of the groomed trails pass over the hills and above the tree line so there are good views along the way. The trail network caters for walkers, skiers, cyclists and skiers with dogs, all in the same vicinity, but sufficiently separated for safety and enjoyment. There are saunas at almost all the accommodations and lake / river swimming or plunge pools year round. Good public transport links to Kittila airport, Kolari train station and Rovaniemi.

Fantastic skiing atmosphere.
Fantastic skiing atmosphere. Everywhere skiing tracks and no matter of time people on tracks. Ski resort has a lot of off-piste skiing areas.
Temperature in Febrauary can surprise skiiers from south :) Viseversa on mountain temperatures were up to 20 degrees milder that in valley. Landscape is absoultely mindblowingly beautiful. Our week long stay was too short and we defenately will be back for hiking season or longer cross country skiing vacation.

Great little town, supermarket has everything, restaurants are great, but closed in evenings after 6 due to Covid. Eat out in the afternoon's instead. Loads to do, saw spectacular aurora (northern lights) most every night.
Bus from kittila airport is easy.

Really nice place for winter sports!
Really nice place for winter sports! Well kept ski tracks for long distances with small cafes every few kilometers. Not many evening restaurants or other things to do than skiing in the evenings. Perfect for nature lovers, who aren’t too adventurous.
Everything! What a wonderful place.
The glass cabins are clean and comfortable, and it’s such a unique experience - Luxury in the middle of the forest.
The Sauna is amazing! Especially since you can jump into the lake to cool down. After the sauna, going for dinner at
the restaurant (excellent food) will make your
evening perfect.
Finally, the service was awesome 🤩.
Joanna called in advance to coordinate with us, gave us great hiking tips, and was there
to help with everything we needed.
Highly recommended 👌
Vesa & Marja the very friendly owners met us at arrival and since we were early did their utter best to get the cottage ready for us well before normal check in time. The kitchen is small but very well equipped and it’s nice to take a sauna & sit by the fire after a day of skiing or walking or other outdoor adventures.
The beds & bedlinnen are very comfortable but unfortunately no double beds.
Location of the cottages is just perfect next to the supermarket and right by the lake.
We had a great week with lots of snow and sun at the cottage. Simon was very helpful, gave tips and always responded very quickly to messages.
The cottage is unique. Spacious and very well equipped. And always cosy and warm at -27 degrees. The small sauna was wonderful.
The connection to the Y1 ski centre is great and there are also cross-country ski trails nearby.
The supermarket in Äkäslompolo is very well stocked and has everything you need.
We can highly recommend the cottage.
The landlord was always ready to make the changes if needed (e.g sauna times) and also a text message away if we needed him, responded quickly. The door code makes it easy and comfortable to arrive and leave. There was enough place to park. Walking and skiing tracks nearby. Possible to go shopping on foot. Northren Lights in the sky if you go outside after the great sauna. For us it was second time staying there and we have fallen in love with the house and Lapland.
You might look at this and think this must be a review by a friend or family member.
I booked this place very quuckly and on a whim. When I got here I said "I won the lottery". This place is top notch 100% the best. Close to shops and restaurants. Ski bus 150m away.
This place has all the mod cins you want. Dishwasher, clothes washer, drying cupboard, sauna, microwave, fridge freezer etc. Spotlessly clean.
Simply the best.
Don't book a hotel... come here.
The place had more or less everything one expects from such places (sauna as a standard one expects in Lapland, basic set of kitchen utensils) and was warm. It even had a CD player (in case you brought your own CDs... hmm...). But for the lack of wifi I would come back, but the lack of it is a deal breaker for me; next time I will be extra careful to make sure I book a place with wifi!
The cabin is nicely decorated and well stocked with everything for a holiday stay. While its secluded its a short walk into the village for the shops and restaurants. Got lovely balcony overlooking nature. Bus stop nearby meaning you dont really need a car to get around. Village is small but have lots to offer, everyone were helpful and welcoming. Plenty of activities nearby.
+ comfy beds
+ cleanliness
+ very friendly staff
+ modern kitchen
+ comfortable temperature
+ many possible activities
+ Supermarket nearby (walking distance)
+ very silent / relaxed inside
+ Private sauna
I mean I could go on, but all I’m trying to say is that it was a very good experience. If we go to Äkäslompolo again, this stay will be considered again.
the lodge was brand new and very comfortable. the houses are very good located, close to the lake, but still in an oasis of silence between the trees. it felt like staying in the woods. Every home is very well equipped and has it own private wooden sauna. it was everything we had in mind when we came to Lapland.
Everything. It is a great facility, super sweet hosts, a very nice ambiance. Sauna facility and very clean bathroom and kitchen and awesome sleeping arrangements. I would definitely come here for 2 weeks' nice time and WFH. Great connectivity with wife and free parking. Very close to ski and
Great location and value for money. Not overpriced like so many places. Big plus for the fireplace and floor heating that is must for this kind of cabin for winter sports. Also great that pets were allowed to visit inside. Kids loved the upstairs where there is surprisingly plenty of room!
10/10 stay. The cabins are beautiful and have everything you need. They’re warm and cosy. The bed and pillows are comfortable. Dinner at the restaurant was exceptional. The saunas, jacuzzi and ice hole are incredible so make sure you do that too. The staff is super nice and helpful.
A man on reception was really nice. The location is great, right next to the cross-country ski tracks. The apartment is sufficient to fit 6 people, there were 2 of us, so we had plenty of space. Beds were comfy, there was a fireplace which makes you feel cosy.
It was a bit tricky to find the house, since the numbering is bit strange there, but finally we found it. Clean cottage, with a nice fire place and comfortable bed. Sauna was amazing the surroundings are exceptional.
The apartment was cosy and had everything that we needed for our weekend break. The location is excellent - just a minute's walk from the Akäshotelli bus stop. We hope to return in a year's time.
Nice cottage-like feeling in the rooms, in-room sauna, amazingly fresh tap water, great breakfast, close to the “Town center” (shopping mall, restaurants) but also to nature trails etc.
the wooden cabin was great and cozy. we had a good time. Beds are comfortable and the Breakfast was really nice and lots of choices also for vegan and vegetarian.
