Pisavaara Strict Nature Reserve Holidays

This is a former Olympic training center now used by local youth as a full time training facility so there's a LOT of kids and families staying here but everyone was polite and well behaved. There was no nonsense. There are two food facilities on site - a snack bar that has sandwiches, burgers and snacks and the cafeteria used to feed the athletes and provide the free breakfast. Both were very good. I highly recommend the in-room sauna rooms if you can get them. Note this is an easy to get to place from the airport but there is nothing within walking distance. Beds are very comfortable but there's no way to turn up the heat in the rooms. TV is very limited. You'll be Uber'ing to town and every where else from here. But thats not a deal braker. it was a good place to stay.

We stayed in one of the igloo and it was the most unique and magical experience. Felt like we were in a fairytale. We arrived too early for check in but Marina was so kind and helpful. She kept our luggages for us and had them delivered to our igloo. She went above and beyond helping us look for activities to do the following day. She called multiple places to check availabilities and send links to a few others. She took the time and care to make sure we were taken care of even outside of our stay at the property. 10/10. Highly recommend!

The staff made sure our stay was a 5 star experience ❤️ they took care of our every need, the accommodations were unique, warm and cozy - I would come back in a heart beat!! Krystal was an angel 😇

We’ve never paid so much for such an uncomfortable experience. The check-in time stipulated on Expedia is a lie - you do not have access to your room until 9pm when the public stops walking through the hotel. Until this time you have to bide your time in the property where you have to spend money if you want anything - even a cup of tea. The ice hotel is a novel experience - but in actuality the night was very uncomfortable and definitely not worth the price tag
