I had a late checkin due to flight limitations. Aurora hotel had a fresh salad, sandwich and dessert waiting for me 😮. Facilities are exceptional and a mile to downtown Ivalo. Tasteful decor, grounds are well maintained and keeping with the beauty of the land all blend well.

The Aurora Village is 10/5 stars! While a smaller resort (about 28 cabins), there is nothing lacking all but instead adds to the experience. The staff easily remember who you are and treat you like friends versus some guest...whether reception, guides, or the restaurant. I'd like to give special praise to Elena & Annamarija who helped me book everything months in advance. Also two guides: Ruta & Niek - for snowmobiling, snow shoe hiking and cross country skiing. The owner took a group of us on a scheduled night snowmobile trip and he's terrific person from that experience. The cabins were cozy, clean, and warm. The restaurant food was terrific (I'm kind of a picky eater too). The Aurora Village was the best!!!

Magical place
Amazing two nights. Relaxed and peaceful atmosphere. Used both of the saunas and they were great. The food was absolutely delicious. Did not see any northern lights due to cloud cover but other than that our stay was perfect. If I had to think of one tiny little negative thing it would be the breakfast. It was still in the top 10 of hotel breakfasts but I have had better. And the cabins need a rug in front of the door or something to clean the snow off your shoes because the area really gets wet.

The entire property is unique; from its cabins with heated glass ceilings to view the Auroras to providing all the heavy outer wear you will need to stay warm. Breakfast and dinner provided plus there are multiple excursions to choose from. I highly recommend Wellu as your guide on your excursions. He’s friendly knowledgeable, patient and caring. You will get beautiful pics and experience all wrapped in one.
