Rokua Health & Spa ★★★

"The room was great, it was a very large hotel, the breakfast had almost no meat, the scenery was picturesque, the accompanying picture shows the front desk's various equipment, very beautiful, the restaurant had a beautiful view, and there were also hiking trails ranging from 1 hour to 2 days."

Hotel Iso-Syöte ★★★★

"The wow factor is the location with valley view. The other wow factor was our bear cave suite. Whirlpool, large sauna, fireplace, steam bath, two bathrooms and a lounge area. The room is on the lowest level, but the windows are mirrored so that you can't see into the room. Minor points of criticism were the poorly cleaned fireplace glass and the lack of a coffee machine (only kettle). Thanks to its elevated location, the surrounding area receives much more snow than in the valley, a beautiful snow landscape- the highlight for us. The hotel has modern designed spaces (e.g. fireplace and terrace), but also places wirh retro charme (e.g. the huge dining room with carpeted floor and the exterior façade). We didn't book any excursions, but took long walks individually through the snow-covered landscape behind the hotel. As the hotel is very remote, the activities around the hotel are limited. There is a small ski area nearby and one of the lifts runs right up to the hotel. We always ate at the hotel. The evening buffet was so-so but the à la carte selection was fine. The best part was the cake selection at the bar during daytime. Also the pies and lasagna looked good, sadly they weren't available in the evening. The fireplace corner is a nice an cozy place for aperitif and after dinner drinks."
