Perfectly located at the top of Kaunispää mountain (otherwise known as ‘Beauty Hill’), you can enjoy spectacular views over Saariselkä, renowned as “the Lapland of your dreams”, from the Star Arctic Hotel.

Surrounded by nature in its purest and most beautiful form, the hotel itself is a contemporary architectural wonder, featuring huge, gleaming windows that showcase your dazzling environment from every angle – not to mention a luxurious built-in shared sauna.

Choose from a Scenic View Suite, upgrade to a suite with private sauna, or for a real treat, choose a Glass Cabin, with three panels of glass set high above the bed.  Watching the Northern Lights dance across the star-filled winter sky without having to leave the comfort of your cabin must count as a genuine once-in-a-lifetime experience!

Enjoy traditional and modern cuisine in the on-site restaurant, or indulge in a wine tasting session by the fireside.  Outside, you can take part in a wide range of local activities, from husky safaris and skiing, to ice fishing and sledding.

Whatever you choose to do, one thing’s for certain.  The unique Lapland culture and the spectacular beauty of your surroundings are likely to remain with you for a long time to come.
