"The hotel is located on the south side of Ivalo District and on the riverside. On the first night we saw the Northern Lights in the open space in front of the hotel! When we checked in, we were given a "feelings" piece of paper with the opening hours of the hotel facilities written on it! Buffet breakfast: good style, but not enough portion! The opening hours are until 9:30 in the morning, which is a bit too early! Because I want to see the Northern Lights at night, I get up a little later! Our room had a beautiful view of the river! There is a long-distance bus station near the hotel, and transportation is convenient. However, there is no bus directly to the airport, so you have to take a taxi!"

"We only came for the reindeer feeding but this was a real highlight of the trip. We could have done it every day! 15-20min with the animals was fantastic The rest of the resort however looked lovely and they seemed to offer a great range of activities."

"The hotel is very good overall, recommended"

"I stayed at the Holiday Club cottage facility. It was difficult to find at first, as the buildings were all similar. However, the facilities on the premises were listed on Google Maps, so I was able to find it by following the map. I booked this hotel because it was convenient, as express buses depart and arrive at the Holiday Club. It also had a sauna, a unique feature of Finland, which I enjoyed while waiting for the Northern Lights. I cooked my own meals during my stay, and there was a supermarket nearby for easy grocery and alcohol purchases. There were no condiments or seasonings, so buying them was a hassle. It would have been nice if there was a service that allowed me to use the condiments left by previous guests, even if I didn't leave them in my room, as it would be a waste if my stay was short. I was amazed to see the Northern Lights around 3:00 AM, just a three-minute walk away."

"Personally, I really like the atmosphere of the entire Northern Lights Village, and I like the glass cabins even more. Fortunately, the hotel assigned me the glass cabins in the outer row, and I can see the forest through the glass. Although I didn’t see the Northern Lights in the glass house, I had a lot of fun playing with the snow in the village."

"We visited with my fiancè and my mum for her 80th birthday. The staff looked after us so well from organising trips to catering for myself and my fiancè who are vegan. The food was incredible- big selection at breakfast and possibly the best granola and vegan pancakes I have tasted! Trips that I would recommend are the cross country skiing lesson with Marti- so much fun and a really knowledgeable instructor who was very kind and jolly. Also the huskies; the dogs were so well looked after and clearly enjoyed the event. I am big on animal welfare and I was cautious about events that mix animals and tourism but I was blown away with how happy the dogs were and cared for they are by the staff who love them. The Spa opens at 4pm each day and we loved going to the sauna and then to the cold plunge and back to the sauna again. We felt so relaxed after. Seeing the northern lights from the hotel whilst sipping champagne in the spa lobby was the absolute dream. I can not rate this hotel, experience and holiday enough. Thank you to all the staff at Galdu- we hope to someday return!"

"Not very helpful"

"The accommodation was really spacious and the facilities were clean, so it was a great place to stay with friends and family~💛 I'm so satisfied and leaving~!!! I'm completely satisfied!!"

"I didn't take a photo of the room, but it was the same as the picture, or even worse than the picture. It was the oldest room type, and it was very far from the front desk. It was the farthest room, and it was very inconvenient to get in and out. The hotel has only two floors of accommodation rooms, but there is no elevator. The sauna room is on the negative floor. I suggest you don't choose the oldest and cheapest room type, but a slightly newer and more expensive one. Although 1000+ is not cheap, it still shows that the prices of local resorts are high. If you want to see the aurora, I suggest you spend a little more money to stay in the glass house, there will be surprises in the middle of the night!"
