Cute place with big rooms. Sauna in the room but they call it a water closet for a reason. I was surprised and sad that they didn't offer a shuttle service to / from the airport which is very close.

What a fun place! Lots of Christmas fun to be had! Right on the arctic circle too!
Romeo, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great space for the family with an extra bedroom, sauna and a small kitchen. Easy access, friendly staff and quiet. Most of the shops and restaurants close by 5 pm, including Santa visit so we missed them. Would have done some of those before check-in if we had known.

One night stay outside season

Family visit in April. As we were at the end of the winter season we have missed out on the most of activities what village has to offer. Also everything is at the extra cost , no activities included with Santa stay. We didn’t realise how little to do once the season is over, also little cottages are comfortable enough , but done to the minimal just to provide you basics. I personally would stay in near by A&B with more personal touches and catch a bus to the village just for a visit. Best experience in the area was “Santa Salmon” ! That is 100% a must!
Agne, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The holiday village was great, well decorated and good condition. The only thing stopping it being amazing were the number of day trippers arriving and causing overcrowding of the restaurants at lunch and some of the activities.

Amazing days at Santa’s village

I was at Santa Claus village with my girlfriend and everything was great. The atmosphere is amazing and you really feel like in a Christmas movie in the buildings and attractions. I recommend spending at least 2 days at the village to experience the place in the early morning and during the night, when the amount of tourists is drastically lower. During the day it will be very crowded, so if you stay in the City Center and come only for a few hours it might not be the best experience.
Lucas, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Ok place to stay

Cute place to spend a couple nights if you have children. Could do a better job on the decorations and area cleanliness. Very limited dining options and since you are stuck in the area you cant venture out unless you get a service. Numerous shops everywhere ready to sell you trinkets. Rooms are basic but comfortable. I would say its a ok place to stay as long as you know its a tourist trap with basic accommodations and not really holiday/winter themed decorations.
Alejandro, 2-night trip
