We travelled to Nellim in March for four nights and had the most fantastically enjoyable time. The location is almost total wilderness and we were lucky enough to see the lights on our first night there which made it all worth it. The hotel is cosy, clean and has a great buffet restaurant. Our room was simple and comfortable and... More

We spend a great time in the Nellim Wilderness Hotel, enjoying a lot of activities in the snow. But, we did miss the real Finland culture, like the famous open Finland sauna near the lake. There was only a miserable sauna somewhere hidden in the base of the building, without any connection to the outside. Furthermore, there was an oldfashion... More

We have just returned from the wilderness hotel at Nellim. We had the most wonderful time and truly one of the best holidays I have ever had. The hotel is great, the guides are wonderful and lovely to spend time with. We saw the northern lights for three nights with the most amazing display. The activities were all well organised... More

Hotel and experiences lived up to the positive reviews others have posted. We had a fantastic time. We enjoyed all the activities, although husky sleding and night snowmobile safari were our favourites. Room warm and clean with a heated floor in the bathroom. Food hearty and full of flavour. Equipment of a high standard and adequate for the minus 34C.... More

We arranged this holiday with Aurora Zone and we initially thought it was a bit expensive, however we now think it was worth every penny. The company were very easy to deal with and gave us lots of information so we were well prepared for the cold weather. Peter the Rep met us at the airport, and provided a very... More

We booked through the Aurora Zone and they come highly recommended. Excellent communication and well organised. We were met at Ivalo Airport by Rambo! a jovial Nellim... More

Just back from a fantastic holiday. We were fortunate to see auroras on all three nights we were there which, of course, enhances our view of the holiday. The hotel is excellent, and is made outstanding by the staff who work phenomenally hard to make it a special stay for all guests. So why my reservation (and only 4 stars)?... More

My husband and I have just come back from the Nellim Wilderness Hotel, Lapland. We went with the tour company Aurora Zone. The hotel and staff were very helpful and friendly and I would definitely recommend this holiday. It was very cold (-30) but you are supplied with clothing and boots. You need to take a lot of layers with... More

Our three days at Nellim was the highlight of our trip to Lapland. A magnificent location (surrounded by lakes, frozen when we went), great facilities and an astonishing level of hospitality. The food is included in the tariff and was fresh, thoughtfully prepared and plentiful, exceeding our expectations. Each meal had three main course options (one vegetarian), many salad options... More
