If you've experienced this holiday first hand, why not write a review?
We are keen for as many customers as possible to review their holiday. To make it easier to do so, we include a specific review section on our post-holiday questionnaire, and this is what we publish here, unedited. Read our full review policy >
This is a special place, the family history behind the hotel origins remain and keep a warmth to every aspect of the service. Facilities are 5 star with even the basic accommodation being very comfortable; the Finnish tradition of saunas is well catered for and encouraged as are other activities. Any level of x-country skiing is accepted with tracks to suit; there are no judgements made by the better skiers, only comradeship and encouragement. Food is special catering for any allergy. Finally, if you want to try this outdoor activity or just to experience one of the last bastions of winter wonder, give this a go.
The setting for this holiday was truly beautiful and we were lucky enough to see the Northern Lights twice whilst we were there. We really enjoyed the food but you would have really struggled if you were a who didn't eat fish and would recommend talking to Inntravel before booking if you are vegan.
Unless the ski instructors rein in their expectations of how quickly you can learn to cross country ski, I would really recommend that you do so kind of cross country basics before going on the holiday, though experienced downhill skiers seemed to cope well. We had neither and struggled, assuming that we would be taught as absolute beginners.
A unique location, beautiful despite the extreme cold (minus 30 most days). I would not actually recommend January to anyone, but I would certainly recommend the hotel and the wonderful facilities.

As first time cross country skiers this holiday was perfect. Trails on lake ideal for learning techniques. Trails readily accessed from hotel, including floodlit trail, perfect to practice and improve. The daylight hours were quite short but this meant we saw the most spectacular sunrises and sunsets. Finding lovely atmospheric cafes for coffee and snacks on the trails was an added bonus. We can understand how many people return to the Ylläshumina again as the service was excellent and food extremely full of flavour and variety. I suspect we'll be back!
An excellent holiday which fulfilled all expectations. Inntravel were so efficient and The hotel was in an ideal position and we were well looked after. I would thorougly recommend this holiday to anyone.
A beautiful location, stunning and friendly hotel with excellent quality rooms. Perfect for getting away from the stresses of normal life, getting out in the breathtaking landscape on ski or foot and embracing the darkness. Food was absolutely delicious too.
