This emblematic place offers atypical accommodation combining comfort and Scandinavian tradition, for a unique immersion in the Arctic universe. You'll stay in glass igloos, with a breathtaking view of the starry sky and northern lights from your bed. Their thermal insulation and high-performance heating system ensure optimum comfort, even in the coldest weather. Some igloos are equipped with a private sauna and en-suite bathroom, offering a perfect balance between modernity and well-being, in an unspoilt natural setting.

Spacious, with fireplaces and private saunas, they create a warm and comforting atmosphere after a day exploring the snow-covered landscape. For an even more immersive experience, the hotel also offers snow igloos, designed to experience polar silence in complete safety thanks to sleeping bags adapted to low temperatures. Each accommodation is designed to offer a memorable experience, combining comfort, nature and the magic of the Far North. When it comes to dining, you'll have access to several establishments where you can sample Lapland specialities such as reindeer or grilled salmon. The Savusauna, the world's largest smoke sauna, has its own restaurant for a relaxing gourmet break. There are also six traditional saunas, each with its own relaxation room and open fireplace. To complete your Nordic experience, a wide range of activities awaits you, including snowmobile rides, sleigh rides and a visit to Santa's village.
