Great room for the price, nice clean hotel with modern upkeep. Staff was great, especially the restaurant staff after hours when help was needed. Nothing bad to say other than breakfast and parking situation.

Ruka village is lively and with good selection of bars and restaurants.

Compact and convenient for most things.
Compact and convenient for most things. Skiiers used to Alpine ski resorts will find it small but it has good snow and being amongst trees is lovely. Bear in mind that beginners wanting the easiest slopes should be at the Valley side not the Village side or else you'll need to bus/gondola across.

I was in the summer.... which is still not too warm... so take that in to consideration.
There are TONS of mosquitoes, you wouldn't believe, but still the area is beautiful and the things to is basically kayaking, hiking or just relaxing. you must have a car to get around and it's better to purchase food and cook for yourself where you stay.

Ruka is a great family resort.
Ruka is a great family resort. A winter paradise with cross country skiing and downhill skiing available. There is also a ski school. I recommend staying in Ruka village side rather than Ruka valley side.
Ice slide onto small frozen lake was super popular with my kids as well as watching the ski jumping.
Highly recommend the ski school and Lammintupa for reindeer and husky adventures.

Ruka is a very friendly and family oriented place but my son...
Ruka is a very friendly and family oriented place but my son and his friends enjoyed the night- life at Ruka village too. Skiing is for those who enjoy the more relaxed atmosphere as this place doesn’t have many if any for the more experienced ones. We did not have to queue at the lifts. Nevertheless it is very popular with couples and families alike . There are plenty of places to eat in , or use the take-away services too. We would definitely go back next year. Loved it!

Beautiful place, fantastic food in the restuarants in Ruka...
Beautiful place, fantastic food in the restuarants in Ruka Village. Must try Stefans Steakhouse. Do book with Ruka Adventures for experiences, they are exciting, genuine and very helpful. The Cabin is cosy and warm and an ideal place to relax. Would highly recommend to all.
Beautiful hotel right by the lake. Great views from the restaurant/breakfast room. Nice fireplace that gives a great ambiance to the room. Electric Sauna was good too. The rooms are equipped with an electrical clothes dryer which is very thoughtful and was already useful in the fall, so I can only imagine how useful it will be in winter! The location is great as well, just a short walk from Ruka village.
The house was modern, new and good size. The kitchen was well equipped- we had everything what we needed. The most, we liked the location - in the middle of the forest - perfect for the skiing holiday and Christmas celebration. The cross country skiing tracks started close to the house; and the Ruka alpine skiing centre was very close as well. Quiet and beautiful place - perfect for winter holiday!
Hotel right near to village ski lift. Outdoor storage room too to keep your skis and boards out of your room.
Breakfast was nice with a decent variety.
We were given a newly renovated room upon request - it was modern, clean, overlooking the ski slopes. It was amazing!!
Excellent situated in the Village with all that you need within walking distance. The shop was in the first floor.
Beautiful conditions with Ski tracks and downhill slopes.
One of the better Ski sites in Europe.
Nice flat with everything you need for your own household.
It is unfair for this type of accommodation to be rated on a Booking.com review. Yes, the room is very small. But the whole experience is far beyond a typical hotel. The scenery, the view from the room, the stars, the northern lights, the tranquility. Just magical..
Located quite near Rukatunturi at a very accessible place. The apartment was clean and tidy and check in was really smooth. Apartment has all kinds of amenities available and sauna was nice too. Kitchen has a good amount of tools and utensils available to cook.
Excellent location, near the Ruka Ski center but nice and quiet. Own parking spot with electricity for car heater. Good kitchen equipment and a sauna. Excellent for relaxing in front of the cozy fireplace, watching cable tv after a long day outside.
The apartment is perfectly equipped with everything you need - nothing was missing for a skiing holiday, including dryer. The hotel has an excellent location, close to the lift, all necessary amenities are nearby - ski storage, shop, restaurant
Location excellent, very close to the slopes and ski lift (abt 150m). The apartment was clean and kitchen had a lot of equipment. The sofa bed was good. Close to Ruka Village, about 5 min walk. There was an electric pole for heating the car.
Cabin was spotless
Everything we needed was available
Sauna was great
Beds comfy
Good location - less than 10 minute drive to Ruka village and 15 to Ruka Valley.
Instructions were clear.
Drying cabinet was great.
Nice location by the lake, 15min to Ruka east slopes.
The place is cozy. The dryer is convenient for drying gloves and ski clothes.
The kitchen is compact but very well equipped.
it is a family run hotel with a care and comfort of the brand hotel. Staff was super friendly, food in the restaurant was fantastic and sauna hot. thank you so much
Breakfast was good and fresh! Location is quiet and far away from shops and restaurants. Igloo felt really private, far more better than regular hotel room.
