“We loved the experience. The coach arrived at Santa Hotel in time and the trip was comfortable. The guide met us at the SnowHotel and explained how the hotel is built and left us free to go around the rooms by ourselves, which was nice as everyone has got their own path. The SnowHotel is beautiful and really worth the visit. We also went to the ice bar and ordered a lovely shot in a ice glass. We then went for dinner at the Roka restaurant which was an incredible experience. We ate right next to the fire, the atmosphere was very calm and romantic. We were very glad we…”

Rovaniemi: Ice Restaurant Dinner with Snow Sauna & jacuzzi

5.Ice Restaurant Dinner with Snow Sauna & jacuzzi

★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 41 reviews · from $318

Spend 6.5 hours at Rovaniemi’s Arctic SnowHotel with round-trip transfers, a guided hotel tour, private snow and Finnish sauna use, an outdoor jacuzzi, and a three-course dinner served among sculpted ice and snow. Choose elk, Arctic salmon, chicken, or vegan falafel.

“We felt that the overall experience was excellent and the Ice Hotel and snow sauna were very unique experiences. However, we were asked to be at the meeting point 1/2 hour prior to the start of the experience. That seemed somewhat excessive, but we were willing to do that to prevent any unnecessary delays. But when the bus transporting us came 15 to 20 minutes late, it meant that we had to stand out in the cold for approximately 45 minutes for absolutely no reason whatsoever. If you are going to demand punctuality from your guests, you should make sure that the transportation is punctual as well.Read more”

Ride a snowmobile from Rovaniemi through snowy forests and across frozen terrain to the Arctic SnowHotel. You’ll tour its ice rooms and snow sauna, then eat glow-fried salmon in a warm Kota. Guides such as Juho, Emil, and Valentina have led this outing.

“Very Disappointing Experience We booked the Snowmobile Safari to the Arctic Snow Hotel in Rovaniemi (2 adults, 2 teenagers, around €1000). Shortly before the tour, my husband had a severe allergic reaction and had to be taken urgently to the hospital. It was a genuine medical emergency beyond our control. I went to the meeting point at the scheduled time to explain the situation and politely asked to reschedule within the next four days of our stay the same or any other available tour. The company showed zero flexibility or empathy and refused any alternative solution. For such an expensive activity, we expected basic understanding and customer care. Instead, we…”

“Honestly although the snow hotel is worth seeing I would not book this trip. Over priced, under whelming. Trip started by us needing to be at our location in the city centre at 16:25 which we were. Nothing happend till 16.55 when 2 buses arrived with the snowhotel destination on them. By this point there were lots of people with 16:25 and 16:50 times on their information. It was then a nightmare no one knew what bus to get we went to one with our ticket to be told our name was not on the list and he would not let us board even though we had the ticket. So…”
