Immerse yourself in the idyllic tranquility and snowy magic of the Arctic Circle: each suite at the Arctic Treehouse Hotel, a masterpiece of Scandinavian design, opens onto a breathtaking backdrop of snow-covered pine trees, mystical northern lights, or the enchanting midnight sun through a huge panoramic window. Here, where the silence of the Arctic fills the room, you can lean back wrapped in fur blankets and admire the untouched nature or indulge in exciting expeditions.
The resort's trademark is in its name: the extraordinary suites resemble cozy tree houses on stilts, housed in sophisticated, elongated units covered with wooden shingles. The north-facing panoramic windows are a stroke of genius in terms of design and offer an unobstructed view of the majestic northern lights in winter when the sky is clear—if they appear. The spacious Arctic Scene Suites also feature a lovely terrace with a fireplace, a sauna, and a bathtub with a view. Those who want to claim the surrounding winter wonderland for themselves will find pure luxury in the Arctic Cloud Villa, nestled in a snow-covered forest.
At Restaurant Rakas, the vibrant heart of the snowflake-shaped main building, the elegance of modern Nordic cuisine blends with hearty Alpine flavors. Here, zander from the hotel's own lake is served on a bed of Lappish potatoes and refined with a hint of white birch dressing, while smoky reindeer with game sauce becomes an unforgettable taste experience. Afterwards, the lounge bar with its crackling fireplace, soft fur blankets, and comfortable sofas invites you to linger, while fine wines, mulled wine, and craft beverages provide the perfect cozy accompaniment.
While the snow-covered idyll of the hotel invites you to enjoy cozy evenings by the fire, the untouched nature and exciting activities such as hiking, mountain biking, aurora borealis viewing, snowmobile excursions, and husky sled rides entice you to enjoy a frosty experience of a special kind. Experience the magic of the Arctic up close, whether ice fishing or on a reindeer farm, where you can stroke the thick fur of Santa's graceful helpers. Are you traveling with the whole family? Create unique memories by handing Santa Claus your wish list in person at the famous Santa Claus Village in Rovaniemi or observing rare Arctic animals such as polar bears at Ranua Zoo.
The iconic Arctic Treehouse Hotel in the far north of Finland is much more than just a retreat – it is a fairytale experience that transports you to a world of winter wonders. Nestled in the pristine wilderness of the Arctic Circle, surrounded by dense forests and endless snowfields, the hotel rises like a mysterious treasure in the eternal white. Each suite, a masterpiece of Finnish architecture, combines luxurious comfort with the magic of nature. Large panoramic windows offer breathtaking views of the mesmerizing spectacle of the Northern Lights, which bathe the Arctic sky in a shimmering mosaic of light and color.
