The Riekonlinna is a well-appointed hotel with an excellent range of facilities and a reputation for wonderful food. Unsurprisingly therefore, it has proved extremely popular with Esprit guests over the recent years.
A favourite feature is the Northern Lights Lounge, which offers big squishy sofas looking out to the northern skies through huge, wall-to-wall panoramic windows, so you can watch for the Aurora Borealis in warmth and comfort!
Children meanwhile will probably be more interested in the play area and the hotel’s toboggans, provided free of charge for use by guests.
The Riekonlinna offers a range of family rooms, suites and stylish, well apponited new family apartments set in the woods behind the main hotel building, approx. one minute's walk away.
New this year, experience Lapland the traditional way in one of the Riekonlinna's new Igloo Snow-Cabins! You can book a single overnight stay in an igloo (whilst keeping your hotel room as a warming back-up!) and sleep on a snow shelf with a thermal mattress. A thermal suit, socks and an arctic sleeping bag are provided to keep you warm and snug whilst the igloo's ambient temperature stays around -5°C! A truly once in a lifetime opportunity and you will get a certificate to prove you did it
