Yhden yön majoitus

Mukava yhden yön paikka keskellä kaunista ympäristöä. Kaikki perustarpeet oli hyvät. Huone oli perushyvä, joskin pikaisesti siivottu. Ilmanvaihtoa ei ollut, mutta ikkunan sai avattua. Aamupala tarjottiin 4min ajomatkan päässä yöpymispaikasta, oli hyvä.

Super schöne Unterkunft wir waren begeistert. 3,4 Kilometer von Saariselka entfernt zu Fuß gut erreichbar. Mit langlauf skiern, knapp 15 min durch den Wald. Super schön Loipe 1 minute von der Unterkunft entfernt. Direkt im Waldgebiet total idyllisch wir sind totale Natur Menschen.In der freien Wildbahn genau an der Hütte ein kleines Rentier gesehn war toll.Die erste halbe stunde die wsr da waren bei der Unterkunft gegegen 23 uhr sind wir noch raus gegangen und in der Sekunde haben wir die Nordlichter( aurora)sehen dürfen einfach nur magisch.

Upea luonnonläheinen majoitus!

Sauna ja uima-allas iso plussa. Nettisivut olivat hieman sekavat, mutta onneksi päädyimme Outa-majoitukseen. Huoneistomajoitus sopi meille loistavasti. Siisteydessä (pölyistä) oli hieman toivomisen varaa.

Toimiva tunturimajoitus

Tunnelmallinen yöpaikka luonnon helmassa. Hyvä saunaosasto ja uintimahdollisuudet sekä purossa että uima-altaassa. Kesällä muita majoittujia oli vähän ja saimme olla todella rauhassa!

Hieno paikka Laanilassa hienolla saunalla

Kiva ja rauhallinen, myös erittäin siisti, asunto. Keittiövälineitä yhteisessä keittiössä voisi olla vähän enemmän ja uudempia. Check-in (ja aamiaispaikka) on 4 km päässä, mutta autollisellehan tämä ei ole ongelma. Ilmainen aamiainen-merkistä huolimatta aamiainen ei kuulunut hintaan. Saunaosasto on erittäin viihtyisä ja ainakin meidän oleskelumme aikaan maksuttomassa käytössä 16-22.

La struttura è molto bella e ben tenuta immerso nella natura. Il nostro cottage era all’interno di una costruzione tutta in legno con un bel salone in comune e una cucina. Nel cottage piccolo cucinino ma funzionale, bagno con asciugatrice, camera da letto e sala pranzo con due letti. Ben arredato. Asciugamani e lenzuola gratis. All’esterno edificio con sauna e piscina molto pulito. Consigliatissimo.

Prachtige ligging, zeer ruim, sfeervol, uitstekende sauna met binnenzwembad, naast eigen keukenblok ook uitgebreide gezamenlijke keuken en grote goed ingerichte woonkamer mer open haard. Personeel zeer vriendelijk. Helaas was de eerste dag de verwarming kapot waardoor het net niet comfortabel was. Zeer voortvarend opgepakt door het personeel wat wel tot de volgende middag nodig had om het probleem op te lossen.

快適に楽しむ為には諸々要注意です。

森の中のコテージといった感じで、ロケーションの雰囲気は抜群。室内やサウナ等、とても綺麗で滞在は快適でした。ただしサウナは16時〜22時までと案外短い時間しか使用出来ず、街からは非常に距離があり、歩くのは無いと思います。冬は宿に籠りたいので無ければ普通に街のホテルをお勧めします。また、チェックインが遅くなる旨伝えておいたはずですがカギを受け取るレセプションが閉まっており、雪の中、荷物を抱えて途方にくれました。幸い近隣のホテルに駆け込むと、夜間のカギの受け取り方法を教えてくださり、タクシーも手配して頂き事無きを得ましたが、事前に夜間の受け取り方法のお知らせが無かったのはどうかしているとしか思えませんでした。

Passeli paikka perusmajoittumiseen

Vierailu Apartment Hotel Kuukkelissa olisi voinut sujua mutkattomamminkin. Saapuminen ja sisäänkirjautuminen yöaikaan osoittautui luultua haasteellisemmaksi. Ennakkoon saaduista ohjeista huolimatta mökkiä ei löytynyt mistään ja tuli ajeltua ympyrää metsässä kahden aikaan yöllä. Mökkejä ei oltu nimetty, eikä numeroitu asianmukaisella tavalla, joten metsään meni metsästys : ) Mutta kaikeksi onneksi Kuukkelin henkilökunta oli puhelimen äärellä yölläkin. Saatuani yhteyden vastaanottoon asiat alkoivat järjestyä ja sain korvaavan majoitushuoneen mökin tilalle. Yö venyi kuitenkin pitkäksi ja koin sisäänkirjautumisen ongelmalliseksi. Myös sisään- ja uloskirjautumispaikka Kuukkelin kauppakeskuksen sisällä on jotenkin hankalasti löydettävissä -tai ei ainakaan liian sujuvaa. Korvaava huone, jonka sain yhdeksi yöksi, oli viihtyisä, mukava ja perustarpeet täyttävä. Ilmastointi oli sopiva, sänky hyvä nukkua (vaikkakin yllättävän kova!), suihkutilat siistit ja puhtaat. Työpöytäkin oli kiva lisä näin työmatkalaiselle, samoin vedenkeitin kahveineen ja suppeine teevalikoimineen. Huoneesta en voi enempää sanoa: aika perushuone ilman sen kummempia lisävarustelua. Sopinee yhden yön perusmajoitukseen, mutta mitään ekstraa ei kannata odottaa :)
