★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 41 reviews · from $318

Review of Rovaniemi’s Arctic SnowHotel dinner, snow sauna, Finnish sauna, jacuzzi, ice drinks, transfers, menu, price, and booking tips.

“We felt that the overall experience was excellent and the Ice Hotel and snow sauna were very unique experiences. However, we were asked to be at the meeting point 1/2 hour prior to the start of the experience. That seemed somewhat excessive, but we were willing to do that to prevent any unnecessary delays. But when the bus transporting us came 15 to 20 minutes late, it meant that we had to stand out in the cold for approximately 45 minutes for absolutely no reason whatsoever. If you are going to demand punctuality from your guests, you should make sure that the transportation is punctual as well.Read more”

“Very Disappointing Experience We booked the Snowmobile Safari to the Arctic Snow Hotel in Rovaniemi (2 adults, 2 teenagers, around €1000). Shortly before the tour, my husband had a severe allergic reaction and had to be taken urgently to the hospital. It was a genuine medical emergency beyond our control. I went to the meeting point at the scheduled time to explain the situation and politely asked to reschedule within the next four days of our stay the same or any other available tour. The company showed zero flexibility or empathy and refused any alternative solution. For such an expensive activity, we expected basic understanding and customer care. Instead, we…”

“Safartica is an extremely professional company with excellent equipment and the most incredible guides. For this tour, they provide everything from overalls to boots including socks, and balaclava. You just need to show up and they take care of you. We were a group of 11 and had 2 guides Alessandro and Valentina. Both were very knowledgeable, caring and friendly. I want to especially thank Alessandro - my wife was a solo driver and for some reason her snowmobile wasn't going as fast as others even with full throttle. But he was so sweet that he stayed back with her, didn't rush her at all and made sure to keep…”

“Honestly although the snow hotel is worth seeing I would not book this trip. Over priced, under whelming. Trip started by us needing to be at our location in the city centre at 16:25 which we were. Nothing happend till 16.55 when 2 buses arrived with the snowhotel destination on them. By this point there were lots of people with 16:25 and 16:50 times on their information. It was then a nightmare no one knew what bus to get we went to one with our ticket to be told our name was not on the list and he would not let us board even though we had the ticket. So…”
