From first pick up until finally drop off at the Ivalo airport the Wilderness Hotel Inari took exception care of all our needs, hopes, and dreams. We arrived at the hotel late in the evening and were immediately encouraged to enjoy the buffet before the hassle of checking in. This made a strong first impression on us, our comfort was their top priority. This impression would continue to be fortified each day in different small ways that made our trip beyond our expectations.
Each item of the buffet was very well prepared and the variety allowed us to experience local flavors as well as classic dishes known around the world. I personally started with the soup of the day and freshly made bread before sampling the multiple protein and vegetarian options. The desserts looked wonderful and varied from day to day, however I left my sweet tooth at home.
We stayed in a chalet and an aurora cabin a found both very nice, however, the chalet was our very favorite due to increased privacy, space, and of course, the sauna. The beds were very comfortable and the floors warm (very comforting after adventuring out in the cold!)
We failed to bring enough cold weather clothing, which was no problem because we were provided quality boots, gloves, and snow suits. These were essential to our ability to enjoy the activities throughout our time. We picked a new saying, “there is no bad weather, only bad clothing” and the Wilderness Hotel Inari helped us appreciate this wisdom.
We enjoyed several of the many adventures offered including some Aurora hunting expeditions, ice fishing, and the husky safari. All our guides were kind, helpful, and focused on our enjoyment. We had great success in viewing the Aurora activity and we think our photo’s came out amazing (only using our phones!)
Without a doubt, this trip exceeded our hopes and for a price that felt very fair for the service and comfort.

Way out in the country right on a beautiful lake. The room was perfect. Breakfast was great and the owner was very friendly and helpful

The breakfast was phenomenal. The beauty of the area sets this in an excellent location even though it's out of the way.

Very nice atmosphere, and special to stay in vicinity to all those sledding dogs. We also had some reindeer passing the property during our stay. The huts are very cozy. Staff/the owner very nice to communicate with. The sauna option with the icey river water next by is really good.
Villa Lanca is in Inari, a few minutes’ walk from Lake Inarijärvi and the town center. WiFi and parking are free. Villa Lanca offers activities such as Northern Lights hunting.
We went on a snowmobiling trip and a dog sledding trip.
We went on a snowmobiling trip and a dog sledding trip. We liked both but really enjoyed the dog sledding more. The cabins on the lake at night, when the northern lights came out, were perfect. Yes it was cold but we could go in an out of the cabins and take pictures as the northern lights waxed and waned. Truly a fabulous adventure that cannot be replicated at a hotel.

Pretty little town, beautiful nature, very few people in the streets. Northern lights!!
Not many places to eat or to go out to, but it wasn't a problem for us. There's also a big museum and a cultural center there, hotels, a souvenir shop and supermarkets, and generally many things specially for the tourists. There is apparently no public bus going between Inari and the Ivalo airport (only Inari and the Ivalo town), but it's possible to book a shuttle bus.

the Wilderness hotel was fantastic.
the Wilderness hotel was fantastic. We love to hike and there are quite a few nice hikes in the area. The museum was very impressive and certainly worthwhile a visit.
The restaurant at the hotel was very good and we ate there every night of our stay. Highly recommended!

We stayed at Hotel Inari.
We stayed at Hotel Inari. View over huge lake from hotelroom and restaurant - and you can walk by foot or snowshoes or skis on the lake or ride snow mobile. Mini villlage, totally quiet, yet supermarket just across the road and tours in the area starting next door without any disturbance. Nice room, good breakfast though a bit crowded for Covid conditions at least at rush time (9 am) and probably winter holiday in Finland. Much much better to go to Inari than to Ivalo. Very friendly and helpful people, and many wonderful tours available.

Kind of remote town middle of nowhere, next to lake Inari.
Kind of remote town middle of nowhere, next to lake Inari. Not much to do if you'd like to downhill skiing or party but if one likes nature, calmness and clean, healthy atmosphere, then Inari is beautiful place. Especially during winter months. Dogsled rides, cross country skiing or such.

Great staff. They guided us to an extraordinary location for spotting the Northern lights, and we did! Perfect apartment with everything you need. I just loved the way they were prepared for my one year old - perfect crib and kid-friendly moomin cutleries. Beds are extraordinarily comfy - top class — 5 star hotel level. Proper siZed kitchen. Larger than traditional kitchens. A minute walk from the hypermarket.
Whole apartment is so clean and exactly the same as you see in the pictures.
The location was perfect! In the forest and in front of a beautiful lake. Private beach. We were alone, without neighbours and had our own cottage. There is also a place for barbecue. Dogs welcome, and our dogs were very happy there.
There is a dry toilet by the cottage, and a normal toilet further away where you have shared showers and even a sauna.
Absolutely fantastic environment and tasteful design. The restaurant has a splendid view on the lake.

Beautiful hotel in the middle of a winter wonderland. Staff were attentive and welcoming, allowed us to store our bags and helped arrange a taxi. Restaurant and bar were both stunning and dinner was incredible. Their buffet breakfast was fantastic, so many options.
Esko was a great host. There is a really nice, comfy and cozy common area, great finish sauna. We had a basic ski lesson from Esko, and he tought us a lot about the area and Finland in general. Sleeping ia cabine in the lake is very special experience.
We loved the entire experience. From the sauna to dinner with the host in the grill hut and wonderful conversation over breakfast with the host and fellow travelers. Loved sleeping on the lake although it was windy and no lights. Very peaceful
Amazing location. We could observe aurora lights from the lake Paatari nearby. The road can be a bit tricky if the weather is bad (snow storm).
The house is also beautiful. The Jacuzzi is very nice. The morning view is appeasing.
Amazing resort with really good view surrounded by the Lake Inari. We had a really comfortable stay. Staff were really nice and hospitable. Amazing breakfast and the restaurant also serves delicious food, although a bit expensive.
The house is perfect, comfortable and clean. The hosts left coffee and tea for use. The sauna is a plus after a day in deep cold. The nearby restaurant (wilderness hotel) is very good and the staff is very nice.
A fantastic stay!
Good location, easy accessible from the road and close to siida museum, breakfast at the hotel for 10e/ person was very good. It was clean with possibilities to cook. Pets allowed with additional fee 15e
