Wilderness Hotel Juutua

自助式早餐，款式多樣化，有我至愛的三文魚、茄汁豆和麥皮，還有1枱自助制華夫餅(waffles)機，讓住客自己做華夫餅🧇，熱辣辣，非常好味！酒店在River Juutua河側邊，在餐廳和房間都可以看到河邊美景，一流享受！前枱服務員都樂意為我們解答問題，個別還笑容滿面！酒店餐廳(Aanaar)的服務員和食物都達到5星級酒店的水平。上菜時會講解每個菜，它的主菜、配菜和汁是什麼東西！最可惜溫氣機沒有溫氣出，好彩天氣不是太冷。浴室裏面有乾衣用的熱管，濕衣服好快就乾晒！

Ravintolassa olisi suotavaa, että henkilökunta osaisi edes auttavaisesti suomea, koska olemme Suomessa. Henkilökunta oli ihanan ystävällistä ja ravintola tasokas. Huone uusi, siisti, pieni ja ilmanvaihto huono (kuuma) oli pakko avata ikkuna. Jonkinlainen taso sängynpäätyyn olisi hyvä

Spent a week at Wilderness Hotel Juutua in mid March. The experience was truly amazing. The hotel took care of everything right from the pick up from the airport to my drop off. The Hotel has organised my entire week's agenda very well. I stayed in the Arctic room which was big, clean and had a wonderful view of the river. The hotel staff are welcoming, professional and friendly. The amazing and helpful team of ladies namely, Kirsi, Julia, Vanessa and Linn managed the reception during my stay and catered to the smallest of the queries. The Aanar restaurant whipped up some truly delicious dishes. Plenty of options over breakfast and lunch. Lunch is served buffet style whereas dinner is a set menu with vegetarian and non-vegetarian options. Divya, Ida and Natalia were great at taking care of the guests in the restaurant during meals. Outdoor activities covered almost everything one could experience in Lapland. A big shout out to all the guides mainly Anne, Jakub, Roman, Kirsi and Christina. I was fortunate to see the Aurora over 3 nights. Apologies if I missed any names, the entire staff and guides did a great job. One of the best holidays I ever had. Thank you, Wilderness Hotel Juutua for such great memories!!

We stayed here for 3 nights with the Aurora break. Everything was so well organised, everyone we came across from drivers to receptionist to guides were so friendly and knowledgeable. Our entire trip was amazing with plenty of activities but also enough down time to enjoy the beautiful scenery. It was such a peaceful and stunning location within walking distance to a small town as well as forest walks. We were lucky enough with the weather to get a spectacular aurora display but even without it, the trip would have been great. The food was delicious & excellent quality with plenty of choices especially at breakfast. It was mostly adults hotel which was perfect for us. It was a trip I will never forget!

This was an unforgettable way to spend Christmas. The location is stunning, so peaceful and really magical. The activities are outstanding, my favourite was the 4 hour snowmobile trip on Christmas Day, my husband loved “mushing the huskies” We were fortunate to see the Northern lights twice and on our doorstep, this was the icing on the cake. The hotel is small with friendly and helpful staff. The food was in the main excellent but if you prefer a choice of meal then this is not for you as the evening meal is a “set” meal. We had booked a suite with sauna but there is no part of this room that could be called a suite, it is tiny, just big enough for the bed, one bedside table and one chair in the room. The bathroom was quite dated and I had to complain about the mold on the shower walls which they did try to clean. We found the cleaning to be the weak spot in an otherwise perfect holiday, the table in the room wasn’t wiped, the tea, coffee and milk sachets were not replaced and really in a suite you’d expect a nespresso machine these days. Like a lot of activity holidays, you are only as good as your staff and with one exception, the guides are super friendly, knowledgeable and want to make your holiday the best it can be. I would absolutely recommend this hotel but not the suite, book a wilderness room as not only are they are bigger they are less expensive!

What an amazing environment. I've never experienced anything like it; living in constant darkness is very strange , but you adapt to it very quickly. This establishment is only a 10 min walk to Lake Inari. Here you have the chance to enjoy the Northern lights. You can also take a short walk from the hotel to an alternative viewing space - cross the road opposite the hotel, there you'll find a set of wooden stairs leading to a top of a hill. The Sami Parliament and Museum are also only a short walk from the hotel and well worth a visit. The accommodation is basic, quite small, but clean and adequate. The rooms were warm and the bed was comfy. We had a sauna in our room which I strongly recommend. The food is excellent with a variety of food to choose from during the breakfast and lunch buffets. Food is largely traditional Finnish dishes. Evening meals are served at set times which you are allocated upon arrival. This is a three course meal at night which featured quality product and introduced you to a variety of Finnish flavours. Drinks are charged during dinner, but water is free. There are juice and hot drinks available free of charge at breakfast and lunch. All the staff are very friendly and obliging. The guides are knowledgeable and are happy to answer any questions you may have. We learnt a lot about the country from them. We found Jakob and Sebastien to be particularly excellent. This hotel appears to have no/limited disability awareness. E.g. to access the lobby this can only be done by climbing stairs and the activities do not appear to be adapted. Extra activities can be booked on site should you feel the need to do so, but they do appear to fill up quickly, and activity slots can change. It is worth noting that the Wilderness Juutua Hotel and the Inari Wilderness Hotel are only a few miles apart. The former is very intimate and the latter carters for families. If it is a child free break filled with adventure you are seeking, this hotel is perfect.
