The apartment we had was perfect for 2 people. We spent one night but would have been perfect for a longer vacation. The resort is very easy to find and just 15 minutes drive from Saariselka. The sauna in the bathroom is functioning well, it also had a timer so we had it on when we came back from Aurora hunting and we could warm up before bed.

If you're going skiing, Saariselkä is a good option and you can stay there for a week, for example.
If you are looking for the Northern Lights, maybe 3 nights would be ok, but you you should pray for good weather, with clear skies, and , of course, for the aurora to appear.

Saariselka has everything you need for a winter lapland trip! The ski resort is at walking distance, there are more than three DMC's to chose from when booking trips, there are plenty of restaurants and pubs. THe supermarket is big for a small town and offers all you need. Note that you can't buy wine in the supermarket but there's a small store next to it called Alko where you can pick up a bottle of wine.

It is a small and quiet town. Air is very fresh. Trees with snow on it are very beautiful. You can have many snow activities here. If you stay several days and the weather is good, you may have opportunity to see Aurora.
Bus is very convenient. You can go from Rovaniemi. You can also take bus to Ivalo and Ivalo airport.
Restaurants are very good in this small town.

It is a very beautiful place, but it is expensive. I just stayed for one night in a beautiful cabin. I think that the food is ok and also there could be some more interesting things to in the Hotel do when it gets dark.

You can do many activities - skiing, biking, hiking, relaxing, observing, and enjoying Lapland nature. You have a big chance to see the Aurora Borealis. There is a very comfortable and understandable system of day huts and wilderness huts with essential equipment in and out of the national park — an excellent place for people who love nature.
This is a beautiful property, just outside the centre of Saariselka. Upon arrival we found it had everything we could possibly need and more! It was warm, cosy, clean and absolutely perfect for our stay. The sauna was amazing to relax in after being out in the snow all day and the addition of a Christmas tree was a much welcomed bonus! Surrounded by stunning scenery and just a 10 minute walk into town and to the shops etc. We loved everything about it and would 100% stay again!
We stayed in the Aurora Glass Cabin, the location is great, above Saariselkä, perfect if you want to walk around and enjoy the beautiful scenery of Lapland. The room was nice, well equipped with all you need, and the views through the glass ceiling are really magical.
Staff was super helpful, we also enjoyed dinner in the hotel's restaurant and rented snow shoes from them to have a walk around.
This villa offers everything you need for a cozy stay, including a spacious sauna, wood burning fireplace, full kitchen, comfortable beds and a stand-up dryer to handle.not only.your laundry, but to quickly dry your snow gear after a day on the slopes or trails. The bedrooms are actually much bigger than anything we've seen yet in Lapland and have very nice storage space included.
The apartment is exactly as advertised and more!
Great location, convenient and well equipped! Easy car park, shops, restaurants within walking distance, yet quiet and in the middle of Lappish nature.
Clearly, the hosts are passionate about Lapland and want to share this with their visitors. It made us feel very welcome and as if we were home, away from home.
Everything here was just perfection. It was so a super cute & cozy cabin that was so well furnished & equipped. We loved the indoor fire & the sauna. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook. The beds were super comfortable too. Great location too. Would 100% stay here again if we come back to Saariselka.
It is a very unique arctic property. You feel that you are in an enchanted part of winter wonderland. Great log cabins with glass igloos so you can see the Northern Lights. Customer Service is of utmost quality! The Owner himself is always available, and his staff is highly professional.
Cabin is located in quiet, yet central location in Saariselkä. Short walking distance away from all facilities and services Saariselkä has to offer. Cabin were really clean and comfy, traditional lappish style log cabins, exactly what you'd need to finish off a perfect trip to Lapland!
USuperb place.
Away from Saariselka village. In wilderness.
Perfect placement of the glass roof facing north.
Heavenly view of the sky in the night. Experience of Northern lights was out of this world.
Good food. Must try Sauteed Reindeer.
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
Obviously staying in a glass igloo is pretty special we had two wonderful nights. A weak Aurora, but I hose you can't control. Breakfast was great and they make you feel welcome here. So we can warmly recommend this place for a special couple's break.
Clean rooms, it has all the facilities you need, quiet hotel. Breakfast buffet is included. The location is very good, it’s in the middle of nature with direct access to walking/ski paths and is dark at night.
Very good value for the price.
we visited the property this time last year and couldn’t wait to stay again this year! We’ve stayed in numerous places across Saariselkä and Top Star is our favourite! Very well equipped, great views, easy check in - 10/10!
The staff are helpful and friendly. The hotel is located in a great area, in walking distance to a shopping center and restaurants. The room was clean and spacious (we had a 1-bedroom apartment).
The location was really nice, but I have to put a lot of effort into getting breakfast in the morning since it is far away about 4km away from the hotel, but overall, the hotel was quite amazing!
The owners were very helpful and also the location was amazing, very close to the centre of Saariselka by car! We just loved the small street where the accommodation is!
