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!

The location was close to a store but not so close to other people. There was privacy!

Huoneessa oleva sauna oli iso bonus. Aamuinen hyvä.
So great to watch the northern lights without any hassle.
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.
Well situated; near the lake, which is an excellent spot for Northern lights (w/o street lighning) and very close to good Snowfunsafari where we booked all our excursions, next door to a gourmet restaurant Poro.
The breakfast of the hotel if excellent, large variety of dishes. We enjoyed local and continental breakfast (our doughters loved the self made gauffres :-)
We did not test the dinner.
We also loved there were available slides and local "potkuri" to have a ride on the snow.
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.
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 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.
The decoration in the upstairs common room was very inviting and created a cozy vibe. The young woman welcoming us and cooking our breakfast was very friendly and it was nice chatting to her and the other guests in the kitchen. The B&B was a short walk away from several restaurants in the very small town.
It was a cozy little cabin with a nice fireplace, wood and everything you need. You can also easily borrow sleds and go to the village (15 mins by foot) and also 10 mins to the lake. It’s a perfect spot to see northern lights! We had a great time in Äkäslompolo and in the cabin.
Great location, clean property with nice wood burner and good facilities. Fine for two of us but would be small if all the beds were occupied and the people are tall (the attic room has a low sloping roof). Property is nicer than in the photos on Booking.com!
Stunning location by the lake. Nicely secluded- well suited to aurora spotting, but only a short drive to facilities in Akaslompolo when needed. Comfortable cosy cottage, with the saunas a huge bonus. Hosts helpful and responsive when needed.
Very nice cabin/apartment (one house split into two apartments with own front doors). New and fresh with your own sauna, dishwasher and washing machine. Nice and quiet area among other new houses. Perfect for two people.
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.
Location was excellent, just next to Äkäshotelli and skiing tracks. Short walking distance to Äkäslompolo village with restaurants and shopping opportunities. Perfect for two persons.
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.
Modern private cabins with amazing view, perfect for couples. On site restaurant offers good quality food and is very convenient given the location of the hotel.
We stay here each year and it’s always fabulous! Bedding and linen included in the price . Always spotlessly clean. Easy check in and out . Fantastic as always
An extremely friendly hostel, comfortable beds, nice sauna, and Pekko is very helpful. And hey, I got to attend a small music festival in the common room.
