It was a useful location, the room though small had a microwave and kettle plus fridge, and was only 20 metres from washing and cooking facilities.

The location at the frozen river was very beautiful. The staff was exceptionally helpful, the guide Tomas was extra kind and most surprisingly he speaks excellent Slovak:) We rented cross-country skis directly at the property and explored the forests and area around which was a breathtaking experience. It is not too far (walking/skiing) to Ivalo city where you can do grocery shopping if you need or buy souvenirs.
Hillside Rooms features accommodation in Ivalo. Guests can enjoy garden views. The rooms in the motel are equipped with a coffee machine.

Ivalo is not big, but it is strategically positioned between Rovaniemi and Inari. Amazing location to admire the northern lights and visit Inari. Nature is incredible and it looks less touristy than Rovaniemi.

Ivalo is a quiet place for nature and sport lovers.
Ivalo is a quiet place for nature and sport lovers. A great place to take a rest from busy life and see SNOW in time of climate change. The shops in the centre offer everything you may need and even far in the forest your mobile will still get the signal.

We enjoyed watching the northern lights in the outskirts of the city ... Dont expect the colorful northern lights as you see it in the photos and videos in the Internet , mostly it will be in white color only... Ivalo Hotel club nord and northerlightsriders.fi arrange the best tours which we hired. They showed us the lights in the better places around Ivalo and inari... Apart from norther lights, snowmobile, skiing and other sports activities are available but we did not try those things.

Ivalo town as a tourist attraction might not have too much to offer, however, I was going to Inari and spending time there, hence, Ivalo was optimal for accommodation. It is great that the little town has all services needed and several places for grocery shopping. Also good bus connection.

Ivalo is small but includes some lovely nature trails which are lit in winter and have useful information boards. The supermarket sells fabulous camping kit- such well designed and well made things we don't have at home like collapsible silicon sandwich boxes. And lovely wooden cutlery.
Location: 300 meters from the bus station, close to many outdoor activities companies, supermarket is right across the road, close to the Ivalo river.
Apartment: just perfect, with everything you might need for longer stays as well, a super comfortable sitting room and fully equipped kitchen.
Check-in: very smooth and we arrived during holiday (owners were not there).
Owners: very kind and available since the day we booked, they also helped us managing one of our outdoor activity with a local company.
Cozy, clean, and comfortable.
It had the necessary items to refrigerate, eat microwaved meals, and had a kettle for hot drinks.
The check-in and check-out method was seamless.
The location is ideal - 6 minutes from the airport, 5 minutes from Ivalo, and within 30 minutes to Saariselka and Inari.
P.S. - You only need to drive a few minutes north of Ivalo to see a spectacular showing of the Northern Lights.
Definitely a great deal for the price.
The location and accommodation is perfect and relaxing. The cabin was clean and the views across the lake from the many windows were exceptional. Had the Northern Lights been active, we could have seen them easily from the living room. It is located an easy distance from both Ivalo and Inari for dining options. Parking was directly beside the cabin. SmartTV and WiFi worked great.
Charming hotel on the shores of Lake Inari. The overall vibe is intimate and slow-paced. Our room had wooden walls, private sauna and was very spacious. Dinner was great both nights we were there, we liked the buffet + main course formula.
Room was exactly as the pictures, nice, clean and warm. It was located in a separate building but not a problem. Breakfast was okay as well. We travelled end of November and Ivalo was veeery quiet, same for the hotel/activities proposed.
Abosultely beautiful views from the house. The host was extremely flexible with our arrival and departure times. He assisted us with planning some excursions while we were in Ivalo. Very easy to contact! Would 100% stay there again!
We saw the Northern lights on our first night from the hotel
Stuffs are very helpful and nice. They managed early check-in for us
Room was clean and comfy. Bed was very comfortable
Great location
We had a vey nice stay
Good location between Inari and Ivalo. Comfortable and nice room in the middle of the forest. Kitchen is clean and you can find all utensils you need. A good spot to see the northern lights. Host is kind and friendly.
A very suitable place to stay for families in Northern Finland, even in summer, with excellent additional leisure opportunities. Comfortable rooms, very kind staff. A rich selection for breakfast.
It’s like staying in a winter fairytale, everything perfect and staff super helpful (I recommend to purchase the hotel app with alarms for the Northen Lights which is actually very useful)
Good location, right opposite the supermarket in Ivalo, kitchen facilities were very good and clean. Comfortable bed, cosy room, friendly staff, good Internet.
