Bed and Breakfast -Lapin Satu — Hotel in Eastern Lapland

My fiancée and I recently stayed here and from start to finish it was a true pleasure. We live in New York City and have both traveled fairly extensively and can say that the level of customer service at this family-run establishment is extremely high. The father and son of the family that owns the hotel were waiting for us when we arrived at the local bus station and made sure we were very well taken care of during our stay, right down to taking extreme care to ensure that they had food options that accommodated my food allergy.

We would highly recommend this establishment to any tourists from the U.S. or elsewhere who are visiting the region. Just be sure to book your dogsledding well in advance as those types of activities can be very popular in the winter time...

Beautiful location, very friendly and welcoming service, and tasty food (I recommend the Golubtsi). It's a great place to stay if you're looking for an alternative to the often touristy and expensive accomodations near the ski resort Ruka. It's roughly an hours drive away, however the drive takes you over beautiful lakes, and is well worth it. Furthermore, you can go cross country skiing straight from the hotel, and you will hear nothing but silence (difficult to explain unless experienced), also unlike around the Ruka area. The hotel rooms were spacy, the beds were comfortable and the room...
