In a beautiful wilderness location in Finnish Lapland, on the shores of Lake Inari, the hotel has a warm atmosphere and offers hotel rooms, apartments, traditional log cabins and log suites. It has been lovingly restored and developed into a fantastic resort catering superbly for couples, friends and families for a authentic winter break.
There is a main building housing the cosy lounge area, restaurant, bar and sauna, which have been hand crafted by the owners Jouko and Mari, and together with their staff they provide a friendly and personal service. They offer inclusive packages with accommodation, full board and different activities throughout the winter season and available for 3, 4 and 7 night durations. Please refer to the Nellim Wilderness Adventure holiday section for details.
Many of the room types have their own private sauna, and there is one located in the main building for guests to use. Private 1 hour sessions can be booked at the Reception.
From mild fear to major giddiness. Be prepared for the unbelievable size of the brown bears as they come trundling out of the forests in Eastern Finland. Take a small tripod to steady your camera – I guarantee you'll be trembling with excitement as you come to take the shot.
