It’s so far from any city so you get the full dark sky here, even the weakest aurora would be so vivid in this place. They have a WhatsApp group so everyone on site can share information if they see aurora. The place has a restaurant and the foods are amazing with a reasonable price! Plenty of activities you can do on site as well. Recommend to stay minimum 3/4 nights. My first 2 nights were cloudy but 3rd night was one of the best auroras in my trip. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f9951e17-bbf7-49f6-9270-4122a2ec0b04-1769011424918.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/85d8d343-0cd4-49bd-a267-1396c4dccc1c-1769011558720.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/b968cb00-0fc6-4b28-bf54-848962c9d7fc-1769011558590.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/9a3c8aaa-852a-497e-9d2c-1f6427bdc7ae-1769011560959.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Chung Kin Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2026 ### 10/10 Excellent #### kelvin Nov 22, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities River view stay very relax and quiet ##### kelvin Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kelly Jan 10, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### The best place I stayed in Finland.

The cabin Halla was exactly what we were looking for. You can see the northern lights from your bed. The three cabins are sufficiently far from one another so that you are not disturbed by the neighbors. The cabin itself has everything one needs.

Staff was friendly, helpfull and the accomodation was very comfortable. It is nice and relatively small so no mass tourisme which makes the experience much more personal.

The staff is very nice and very helpful. You can join the whatsapp group where the staff will update and inform you when aurora comes. It is really a nice service! On the other hand, a camp fire will be set up outside by the staff such that we can stay longer time outside to take photo of aurora. It is really a perfect place to stay to watch aurora and we will come back to enjoy again in future. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/834B1BB35BA8D2AEA409C7FE9C5DF377E6F2EE031672942473934.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/E3E61C69F43F1A607054B3E0239F7CD7581C36D11672942475332.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Wai Yip Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### rani Dec 18, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We stayed at Giellajohka for 6 days and wished we had longer. It was magic. The river cabins are cozy, warm and have a substantial kitchen. We enjoyed the in cabin sauna and the beautiful floor to ceiling window meant we enjoyed the aurora from our bed while having a cup of tea early in the morning. The property is run by Anita and her son Jouni and they are actively involved passionate hosts. We loved them and all the staff. The activities were well run, relaxed, intimate and so much fun. No mass tourism to be found. There are beautiful walk, ski and snowshoe tracks from your doorstep and all the gear to borrow. The food was good. We loved reindeer soup and the breakfasts, especially the pancakes with jam. Yum! Don’t hesitate booking it would be impossible to regret a stay here. ##### rani Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ka Yan Jan 31, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Will come back for sure We were here from 23 to 27 January 2023 and enjoyed our stay very much! Routa was perfect! The location was away from light and the glass windows were so clean, we could stay inside and step outside to take pictures when aurora arrived. We saw aurora on Day 1, 3 and 4, i.e. a 75% chance. We used our private sauna every day, so relaxing. And we ordered afternoon tea every day, yummy and affordable. We tried the fireplace as well, it looked gorgeous in pictures. The beds and the fully-equipped kitchen, etc. All were just great! And lastly, we would like to thank for the airport transfer service. Our flight was reschedule to a late night flight in a sudden, thanks so much for picking us up. We shall visit here again in coming 2 to 3 years, in mid September to see the fall colors and aurora! ![Routa](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/7EA350FFB3BE28DC2496CB7221B50D553C83CF641675128683774.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Day 3 aurora (5:30pm)](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/5142E38EAEFD51150EB0CBE4F882208354115E061675128791799.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Day 3 aurora (11:30pm)](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/38147E21842623FC4458B47B94E422EE3F0078DD1675128810203.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Day 4 aurora](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/3FFD885046ED06A95631F4731A1C7B68A7D9D6691675128856143.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Ka Yan Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michaela Dec 17, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Alles perfekt, beste wahl für Finnland ##### Michaela Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jonas Oct 25, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Mega ##### Jonas Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carolle Oct 17, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Not what is mentionned on hôtel.com Je déplore toutefois qu’on nous ait vendu une chambre comme une cabine (la photo est celle d’une cabine avec vue sur lac mais on a eu qu’un apart avec aucune vue sur l’eau qui d’ailleurs est un étang et non un lac) et de plus ma recherche était pour Inari, l’affichage dit qu’elle se trouve à Inari, alors qu’elle est à 45 minutes d’Inari et qu’on a donc dû revenir sur nos pas. On nous a dit que c’était hôtel.com qui faisait sa vente ainsi et non eux.
