This was our second time in Saariselka for cross country skiiing having had a very disappointing experience in Norway the previous year. The resort did not disappoint in that we wanted somewhere quiet to enjoy the peaceful natural surroundings. On the plus side, the hotel is in a good location with great views from many rooms. The front desk staff... more

Just got back from a 4 day stay at the riekonlinna and it was out of this world. We stayed over christmas day and it was magical. The children absolutley loved it. The hotel and staff were fantastic, the room was located away from the main building but still was great. The food was ok, a little bit pricey for... more

Just come back from a 4 day stay at this hotel booked through Emagine. Firstly I cannot praise Emagine enough. They claim to have been organising Lapland events longer than any of the other operators and that doesnt surprise me. Nothing is left to chance and the organisation was superb even down to a seperate restaurant for the evening meals.... more

Stayed at the Riekonlinna early December 2007, travelling with Esprit. Hotel is warm and comfortable, but if you don't want to be changing in and out of the thermal suits, make sure your room or apartment is in the main building. The onsite Lapland Safaris team are great, and got us kitted out. Hotel location is great for the toboggan... more

This holiday was the best experience ever! We booked for 3 days through Santatrips.com and my only regret was not booking for longer. Everything about the holiday was so well run and thought out, I cannot fault anything or anyone. The hotel was beautiful; everything was clean and well maintained. The room had a mini fridge, TV, kettle with tea/coffee... more

We travelled with Esprit holidays to Hotel Riekonlinna in Sariselka, in mid December 2006, the whole family went for a once in a lifetime experience myself, husband children aged 4 and 5 and 3 grand parents. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves. We had booked the 4 day trip which we all agreed had been well worth while, this gave us an... more

Adequate 3* hotel. We had a room for two adults & 1 child. Which had a blacony a double bed & a sofa bed. Not a lot of room when the sofa bed was set up. The bathroom was a bit shabby. More like a wet room & the shower water seemed to go everywhere. However it was clean &... more

Overall we (4 adults no kids) had a fantastic time in Lapland but more about the place rather than the tour or hotel, which were both cheesy and basic. The hotel is definitely not a 4 star as rated by the travel agent. Although clean, the facilities were basic and the food very average. The location is very good -... more
