Buono ma con alcuni aspetti da rivedere
Pros:

La struttura è molto bella e moderna, la stanza era pulita, il cibo impeccabile e il servizio sauna molto piacevole.

Cons:

L’aspetto che mi ha deluso è stato l’odore in camera, che ricordava muffa o scarico. Considerando il prezzo pagato (circa 500€ per una notte in due), è un aspetto importante che dovrebbe essere rivisto.
Inoltre, dopo il soggiorno ci hanno contattato loro su Booking chiedendoci se fossimo ancora in Lapponia e di rispedire ASAP un cavo USB che a loro risultava mancante. Personalmente non ho apprezzato il modo in cui è stata posta la richiesta, perché dava per scontato che lo avessimo preso, quando in realtà non è così. Tra l’altro, considerando il costo della stanza, della spa e della cena spesi tutti lì, un cavo USB mi sembra davvero una cosa piuttosto futile rispetto a tutto il resto.
Nel complesso l’esperienza è stata positiva, ma questi aspetti hanno rovinato la percezione finale del soggiorno.

Très bonne expérience !
Pros:

La cabane se trouvait dans une forêt magique ! La cabane était magnifique. Malheureusement, nous n'avons pas pu observer d'aurores boréales cette nuit-là mais ce n'était pas grave car la vue restait magique.

Cons:

Le prix de la nuit reste chère pour ce que c'est. Avec le dîner, nous étions aux alentours de 700 euros la nuit. Même si le repas du soir en vaut vraiment la peine également.

Als je de noorderlichten wilt zien kan je best 2-3 nachten pakken. Want als het bewolkt is ben je daar voor niks.
Pros:

Nice kamer.

Cons:

Geen noorderlicht gezien. En extra bijbetalen voor de sauna.

Magical
Pros:

The cabin was fabulous. It was very cosy and the view looking out at the trees is indescribable. There’s no tv however, we never needed it as we spent our time looking out at the view or watching for northern lights.
Location was about 10mins from the town where we had a lovely meal and we also ate at the restaurant on site which although expensive was very nice.

Pros:

Oi siamo stati 3 notti , 8-11 gennaio 2026 Imposto è sicuramente bello, isolato ed immerso nella natura. La sauna è vecino al lago 60 passi circa dal foro nel ghiaccio nel quale ci si immerge per la reazione termica, esperienza unica, bisogna essere mentalmente molto organizzati per fare questi metri a -35 e rientrare ma è veramente una esperienza unica da ripetere anche con la neve addosso. Finalmente l'aurora boreale tanto desiderata è comparsa 2 notti di seguito.

Cons:

Comprendiamo le difficoltà vista la temperatura estremamente rigida meno 37, una struttura però costruita apposta nel parco non può non offrire alternative al freddo polare in camera. Lo staff sempre disponibile, ma la mancanza strutturale di un riscaldamento adeguato a queste temperature non è accettabile, l'aria ghiacciata entrava dagli spifferi dell'ingresso della camera, quasi tutta in vetro, quindi Non può bastare una macchina ad aria e la stufa in aggiunta che ci è stata data era appena percettibile, ps stavamo per rinunciare al soggiorno già la prima notte.
Costo elevato, il riassetto quotidiano della camera ha un costo a parte, non è accettabile.
Peccato perché è veramente un posto meraviglioso, l'ultima notte è stata drammatica per il freddo !!
Visitate comunque questa meravigliosa regione, scopritete molte cose in una natura Entusiasmante, che farà emergere anche le vostre capacità di adattamento in un ambiente apparentemente ostile ma così Meraviglioso!!!
Buon viaggio
