What guests think

At Nova Skyland Hotel, travellers praise spacious, stylish cabins with in-room saunas, friendly staff, and a walkable location by Santa Claus Village, while breakfast is tasty but not very varied and bright outdoor lights hinder easy aurora viewing.

Reviews also note consistently clean accommodations, huge windows with forest views, and memorable touches like reindeer near the cottages. Some mention warm rooms without in-room thermostats and occasional housekeeping lapses, plus seasonal restaurant closures and rigid check-in/out or slow activity-desk replies. Overall, it suits travelers prioritizing comfort and convenience over wilderness seclusion.

A very enjoyable stay in a unique hotel that was spacious and comfortable including your own personal sauna and huge windows for stargazing. Staff were exceptionally pleasant and helpful. Also, a 5 minute walk to Santa’s village, 15 minute drive to downtown Rovaniemi and about 8 me minutes from the airport.

NovaSkyland is so nice inside and out and only steps away from Santa Claus village ! I liked the two story unit and idea of a bed on the upper and lower floors and two independent bathrooms. In-room sauna is a winner !!! And the thoughtfulness of preparing sandwiches for early checkouts is great !

We booked here thinking it was more remote than it actually was. It's on the same complex as Santa Claus Village which was a surprise. The hotel was very good though. We had a cottage which was clean and spacious with a private sauna. The only disappointing thing was that there were no music channels on the TV, v limited channels when you want to stay in and relax. The breakfast was great and all staff friendly and helpful. Recommended.

This hotel is amazing! The staff is friendly and welcoming, and the accommodations are clean and comfortable. The highlight for me was the in-room sauna, which is perfect for relaxation. Overall, Nova Skyland will definitely be on my list of favorite hotels, and I can't wait for my next vacation there!

We had a great time at Nova Skyland Hotel. It was a 5 days trip (4 nights) family trip to Rovaniemi. We were not lucky to have a proper winter weather on the first two days and the hotel location, walking distance from Santa Claus Village, plus the option for staying at Nordic Cottage saved our trip. Breakfast was good. The room cleaning could be better, as we found some hair in the bathroom.

Beautiful rooms, nice breakfast and dinner, well located. Rooms were a bit warm and didn't seem to be adjustable. Stairs have an automatic motion sensor that can't be disabled (unless blocked with a ladder) so beware if you have children sleeping there. Kindly provided an extra roll away bed for a 2nd child. Don't expect to see northern lights from the room unless they're very strong as there are lights nearby - should be viewable after a short walk - unfortunately not during our visit.

Every staff’s smile brought us warmth and joy. The room is extremely good with sauna included. Just one thing the hotel may improve is to turn off the road lights which may lower the visibility of seeing northern lights. And we still thank for everything.

This hotel and room is beautiful, however it is not ideal if you want to see the northern lights, because it is inside Santa Claus Village and they keep lights on 24/7. You will only see the aurora if there are zero clouds and they are very strong in the sky. If it is cloudy you’ll see the reflection of the light pollution in the village. Otherwise, we really enjoyed our stay. The amenities in the room are great, the bed is comfortable, and the staff is very professional and nice.
