    ski lift proximity
    limited breakfast options

    Had a boss time! The location couldn't be better, just 40m from the ski lifts – dead sound for hitting the slopes. The personal sauna in my room was a proper treat after a day of skiing. Breakfast was good but could do with more options, like bacon!

    great stay but breakfast could improve

    The room was comfortable and clean, with a sauna that provided relaxation after skiing. The staff were friendly. The mountain view from the balcony was amazing.

    Breakfast could offer a wider variety of options to cater to different tastes.

    The accommodation features clean, modern rooms with a cozy sauna and a balcony that offers a serene view. Friendly staff and convenient online check-in add to a pleasant experience.

    sauna

    Just a reliable pick for a weekend escape in Ruka with great value for the money. The sauna in my room was perfect for unwinding after a long day of skiing. Make sure to bring some snacks, as dining options nearby can be limited in the off-season.

    A Magical Experience in the Snow!

    Expect luxuries like a sauna directly in the room and a cozy jacuzzi on the balcony. Every morning, indulge in a sumptuous breakfast with fresh fruits, good pastries, and hot dishes. Make sure to hit the slopes early. They're picture-perfect and nearly empty!

    Amazing, Amazing, Amazing

    Vacationing here was very nice! The luxury of having a personal sauna in my Superior Twin Room allowed me to unwind after an exhilarating day on the slopes. The breakfast spread was good, with fresh fruits, warm waffles, and an array of hot dishes to fuel my winter adventures!

    100% recommend 💖❄️

    ski-in/ski-out
    sauna balcony
    direct access
    uncomfortable amenities

    The ski-in/ski-out feature provides instant access to the slopes. A cozy sauna on the balcony offers a perfect way to unwind after a day on the mountain.

    There's a significant lack of basic amenities like shower curtains and shelves in the bathroom, which makes it frustrating for managing toiletries. Noise from neighboring rooms can also be a problem, particularly in the Beautiful Twin Room. Breakfast options feel uninspired, especially with the absence of expected items like bacon, leaving some meals feeling lacking.

    unhelpful reception

    The food was amazin, better than expected. Super comfy beds and the online check in made it easy. Nice staff too!

    The breakfast was good but felt a bit basic, no bacon and the sausages were kinda nasty. Also the receptionists could be more helpful, reminded me of they didn't know much.

    Located right next to the ski lift and children's ski area, Ski-Inn offers a convenient way to start your day on the slopes. the sauna in the room is a nice touch and gives a relaxing way to unwind after a long day of skiing. the ski lockers and waxing facility offer an easy way to store and maintain your equipment. the code to access the room is a clever way to make check-in easy and flexible.

    The breakfast could use more variety, especially for those looking for more hot food options.

    Spent Easter at this hotel and the skiing was great, and the sauna was amazing. It was good that the ski-in/ski-out option was available from the hotel which saved time. Also, the breakfast was fantastic.

    The WiFi was terrible. It was so slow that it was practically unusable. There was also a lack of basic kitchen supplies like cooking oil and seasonings. If you plan on cooking, be sure to bring your own supplies. Additionally, the cleaning isn't that great; you have to pay extra for cleaning, and the beds were not comfortable and kept collapsing which made for a bad night's sleep.

    I had such an amazing time at this hotel! The location was perfect, right next to the ski lift, making it so convenient for hitting the slopes. The hotel room was incredibly clean and spacious, providing a luxurious and comfortable stay. The staff were extremely nice and friendly, always ready to assist with any requests or questions. I loved waking up every morning to the breathtaking snow views, it was truly magical. Another great feature was the separate ski locker, making it easy to store my rental equipment overnight. And let's not forget about the tasty breakfast, it was absolutely delicious! I had a lovely holiday here.

    I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a luxurious and comfortable stay.
