Cleanliness
9
Multiple reviews explicitly note very clean rooms and tidy cabins ("sehr sauberes Zimmer", "Clean, comfortable"). A few mentions point to isolated cleanliness issues in room/bath, so overall very good but not flawless.
Service
9.4
Service is frequently praised (helpful, friendly staff, special mentions for guides like Pertti and attentive housekeeping). One report of a terse reception experience slightly tempers this, but overall service is a standout.
Location
9.2
Consistently highlighted as a major positive: beautiful riverside/nature setting, close to Norway, great views and hiking access. The only drawbacks are remoteness and limited nearby shops/restaurants.
Room Quality
9.1
Rooms praised for comfort (very comfortable beds, spacious suites, separate entrances, renovated bathrooms, private sauna). A few comments about a room being warm or minor cleanliness concerns, but room quality is strong.
Amenities
9
Good amenities noted: private saunas, hot tub, well-equipped kitchens, activities and guides. Some negatives: intermittent WiFi and limited local services/restaurants, but overall amenities are excellent for the setting.
Value for Money
7.8
Several guests note that food and some prices feel expensive for the area and limited nearby options; while many found the stay excellent, perceived value is lower than other categories.
Food and Beverage
8.6
Many reviewers praise the dinner and breakfast ("dinner a dream", good breakfast), but there are complaints about limited menu availability, occasional hotel restaurant closures and somewhat high prices.
Overall Experience
9.1
Strongly positive overall impressions: words like 'amazing', 'fabulous', 'we will be back' recur. Guests highlight friendliness, spectacular views and memorable stays, yielding a high overall score.

Rentoa olemista.
Pros:

Siisti, kaunis sijainti, rento meininki, tunnelmallinen. Henkilökunta teki olemisesta kodikasta ja rentoa.

Cons:

Huone oli aika kuuma, kunnes löysin säätimen. Ruoka oli hintavaa, mutta niin on lähes kaikkialla. Joten alueen hintoihin samalla tasolla.

Pros:

Fabulous! We stayed in the Goahti cabin with glass dome roof and private sauna. It was incredible! Clean, comfortable, spacious, modern. Plenty of closet space for your warm clothing. Really spectacular. Friendly staff. Special shout out to Pertti for finding an acoustic guitar so I could practice during our holiday. That's amazing customer focus!

Coole Lage, wenn man fern ab vom Schuss sein möchte
Pros:

- herzliches Willkommen vom Guide der Unterkunft
- moderne Ausstattung
- ruhige Lage

Cons:

- Sauberkeit im Zimmer + Bad
- Straßenbeleuchtung des Dorfes direkt an den Zimmern
- evtl. Nächstes Mal würde ich mir eine Info wünschen, dass sämtliche Restaurants in der Umgebung geschlossen haben - man hat hier nicht viel Auswahl und der Supermarkt war auch minimalistisch -> das Restaurant im Hotel hatte ebenfalls Ruhetag und der nächst größere Supermarkt wäre 40 min entfernt gewesen

Remote holiday village beatifully located at river for small groups of foreigners.
Pros:

Their marketing story and web-presense were very good.

Small hotel (~10 rooms) and handful of cabins plus one iglu cabin they call "premium chalet" (but it is only a small junior suite remote from the hotel).

It is propably good for small group of foreigners especially asians who are first time up north.

Breakfast was OK, like normal business hotel buffet.

I principle good activity selection, but their service capacilty is not enough at least during high season.

Cons:

Their approach to customers was like: "We appreciate your business. You do not have to come, just send the money to us".

Prices of the activities was astronomical.

The housekeeping especially snowplowing (winter) was from non existant to very slow.

Restaurant is small and actually only targeted for groups that are served fixed menu. Ala carte is not available every evening. We were there at new years eve and the dinner was nothing special.

Maravilla de Utsjoki
Pros:

El lugar es perfecto, tiene todo, una buena habitación con una hermosa vista, el restaurante sirve buena comida, tienes traslados donde pidas y tour, además de contar con ropa adecuada para facilitar a quienes no lleben, lo mejor es la amabilidad de todos quienes trabajan en el hotel, a sido el mejor lugar de finlandia que estado ya que fuí sin espectativas y termine enamorada del lugar, entorno, todo, sin duda alguna volvería.

Cons:

Deberían contar con desayuno para llebar cuando debes hacer un check out muy temprano por la mañana.
