SAARISELKÄ, FINLAND

Star Arctic Hotel is a dreamscape where the wild beauty of Lapland and the intimate warmth of luxury create an unforgettable escape. Set against the backdrop of pristine snow-covered fells and the ever-changing Arctic sky, you’re embraced by a sense of wonder and tranquility at this hotel.

The design beautifully blends contemporary elegance with touches of traditional Lappish décor, creating a space that’s both chic and cozy. The Aurora Glass Cabins are like sleeping under the stars—imagine lying in bed with a glass roof to watch the Northern Lights dance across the Arctic sky. Inside, heated floors and plush furnishings keep the cold at bay.

For added space and luxury, the Scenic Suites with Sauna offer a private sauna and kitchenette for intimate breakfasts with Arctic views. For the ultimate indulgence, the Two-Floor Scenic View Suites feature a grand north-facing window by the king-sized and a ground-floor window showcasing the beautiful Saariselkä landscape.

The Restaurant Kaunis, with its elegant setting and panoramic views, offers a feast for both the eyes and the palate. Located in the main building, it’s a perfect venue
for special occasions such as weddings, accommodating around 80 to 100 guests. The menu is crafted from the freshest local ingredients and celebrates the flavours of Lapland. For a more intimate affair, the Wilderness Restaurant offers a unique wilderness experience just a short drive from the hotel. Nestled between husky and reindeer farms, this rustic venue provides direct views of the stunning natural landscape and can accommodate 40 to 80 guests.

If there’s a place to fully unwind, it’s here. Enjoy the soothing warmth of a private Finnish sauna and jacuzzi, or relax on the landscaped terrace with an outdoor hot tub, soaking in the serene Arctic landscape, the glow of autumn sunsets, or the brilliance of the Northern Lights on a frosty night.

Located in the heart of Inari-Saariselkä, the hotel’s Wilderness Centre invites you to discover a treasure trove of year-round activities crafted to ignite both adventure and romance. The nearby Urho Kekkonen National Park, Finland’s second largest, offers vast natural beauty right outside the resort.

For a touch of cultural magic, immerse yourselves in traditional Sámi villages. Snuggle up by the fire and listen to enchanting stories from Sámi elders, whose tales weave a rich tapestry of heritage and history.

No romantic getaway is complete without a guided aurora tour, where you can snuggle under the Northern Lights, away from the modern world’s distractions. Enjoy cosy snowmobile safaris or cuddle under a warm blanket as a team of huskies pulls you through the serene, snow-draped wilderness. There’s a special magic in a reindeer sled ride, with the jingle of bells accompanying you through the snowy expanse. As night falls, strap on snowshoes for a moonlit trek, where the only sounds are whispers and the crunch of fresh snow beneath your feet set a romantic rhythm.

In the (slightly) warmer months, the midnight sun illuminates your love as you hike hand-in-hand through vibrant, lush trails or feel the thrill of mountain biking down scenic paths. Glide across glassy lakes on tranquil canoe trips, where the serene silence is occasionally interrupted by the gentle splash of your paddles. Whether trekking through a snow-dusted forest or sipping on champagne in the jacuzzi, the Star Arctic Hotel provides a blend of excitement and intimacy, making each moment an unforgettable chapter in your love story.
