Resort guests are invited to enjoy communal onsite amenities like pools, spas, restaurants, activities, excursions and shops, and stay the night in luxurious private rooms, villas or apartments.
We had an amazing stay in the Arctic River Rtheiresort. we stayed there for 3 nights with family. they had provided us their best cottage as we had kids with us. the service was exceptional. They called their aurora tour guide at late night on our request just to satisfy our queries. The location is also amazing. We were extremely lucky that we could see dancing aurora from just outside our cottage. Their Husky tour was also amazing.
Very clean and comfortable. Great location, near the Ivalo town and airport. The resort area is very nice, next to the river. The staff was very helpful and friendly.
It was amazing three nights! We got a nice, cozy and warm cabin with our own sauna and kitchen right around a beautiful river and forest . The staff here is extremely nice and helpful. Restaurant has plenty of options of delicious food and good affordable breakfast (15€). They also have plenty of attractions on site like snowmobiles, skiing, snow walking, aurora haunting and so on. Close to the site there is a bus toward Rovaniemi and backwards so we were able visit the ski resort one day.
The only luxury that I found was the quietness and the proximity to the lake makes an awesome spot to watch the auroras, which I could even see in a day without major activity. Staff provided me some snow shoes so I could go walk around!
Con: There's nothing around. Pro: There's nothing around.
This is a beautiful resort in the woods and near the Ivalo river. The aurora-viewing igloo/cabins are charming - possibly a bit on the small side for two people, but brilliant for a solo traveller. The staff are astonishingly nice and friendly and the food is great. This is a good place for doing one's own thing (e.g. hiking in the woods in the snow); there is no pressure to book activities. The barrel sauna is very nice.
The property is under new management. The rooms and restaurant have been renovated. Everything is clean and nice. The staff of the resort and restaurant are amazing! we fell in love with them. This place will be amazing during the summer!
