1. Wilderness Hotel Kieppi

Wilderness Hotel Kieppi
4.0 star property
Saariselkä
9.6 out of 10, Exceptional, (46 reviews)
"The hotel is right next to the national park so great for hiking. The hotel is also in the centre of Saariselkä which is compact and pedestrian friendly so this makes it easy if you’re using buses to get in and out of town and don’t have a vehicle. Breakfast and dinner at the restaurant are good. The hotel was clean and comfortable and the staff are friendly. Be aware that activities book out and so if you want to do more than hiking you’ll need to plan and book ahead."

"Vanha kattohuoneisto, viidelle hengelle ehdottomasti ahdas, ellei kyse ole aivan pienistä lapsista. Tuolit kolmelle. Ei pesukonetta, tiskit hoidetaan käsin, ja siltä ne näyttivätkin. Ok pesuhuone, pieni jääkaappi johon mahtuu max päivän eväät. Makuutilat matalat, sängyn toisessa päässä mahtuu juuri ja juuri istumaan, toisessa ei. Kesähelteillä todella kuuma, mutta huoneesta löytyy tuuletin vähän helpottamaan. Lähinnä yöpaikka, ei sovellu kummemmin oleskeluun. Erinomainen aamupala ravintola...

"Amazing breakfast included in the room cost 7-10am, got a free upgrade to a suite with a personal sauna in our room, perfectly located in the middle of the village. Maybe 5-7 minute walk to the top of the village and 20th to the downhill ski resort. 3 min walk to the trails. Everything was amazing!"
