The buffet has a whole range of foods on offer - including a waffle maker to keep every sweet-tooth happy.Lapland Safaris arranges loads of excursions for the hotel, from snow safaris to dog sledding, and for those up for a challenge, cross country skiing. And don’t forget to walk down to the Äkäslompolo Lake one evening to try and catch a glimpse of the magical Northern Lights – a once in a lifetime experience.But after a fun filled day outdoors, the hotel itself has loads more things to keep you occupied.
