Aino Private Island Hotel - Adults Only

Cannot recommend this hotel highly enough. The setting is magical. Everything is beautifully designed. The staff are so lovely and went out of their way to help us with anything we could have possible needed. The chef is a genius - the food was exquisite! The complimentary sauna, the library and soul pharmacy are such lovely additions. The room is beautifully designed and has everything you need - I especially loved the reading nook with the chaise! The views from the property are stunning with everything covered in pure white snow, including the rivers. My favourite thing was walking across the bridge to get to/from the island: in the day time it provides sensational views, and at night time it is lit by candles and fairy lights and feels like a true wonderland. We had the best time - thank you!

The only thing is that the twin beds are very small (narrow). The mattress was comfortable but turning over was a challenge!

Where do I start!! We loved every single thing about our stay here. How very special to stay at a private island, it was simply magical. Every single day waking up to a winter wonderland. The staff made us feel very welcome and they were so friendly. The rooms were warm and cosy and we loved the neutral colour scheme, the bed and pillows were like sleeping on a cloud. We made use of both sauna’s, wood and electric and loved the sitting area of the wood sauna and the outdoor hot tub. The food was next level and of such a high standard and service. We couldn’t wait every morning and evening to eat :) The walk across the bridge was such a highlight for us and we saw the Aurora too on our walk back to our room after dinner one night. We were happy to be a little away from the main area of Rovaniemi and it was easy to call a taxi. We thoroughly enjoyed our 3 day stay and there is no where else I would stay when we return.

Absolutely nothing and out of a six week trip with numerous hotel stays all over Europe and Asia this was by far our favourite

This property is amazing! The suite was truly beautiful, the design is warm and welcoming. The ambiance inside the suite really compliments the stunning view, the snowfall felt like a winter wonderland. The private island feels special, very new, clean and cared for. All of the staff are wonderful. The chef personally attends the table to explain the meal, adding to a unique experience. The food is exquisite. The chef completely catered to a gluten free guest, exceptional food and stunning dining location. The library with a fire and drinks is super cute and inviting. Worth every cent and highly recommend!

Possibly the most beautiful place I have ever visited, so peaceful and serene. The staff were fantastic, amazingly comfortable bed and room. Restaurant was exceptional - I didn’t want to leave!

Nothing to dislike - Everything was perfect.

Excellent location on an island, great food, great sauna (in and outside of the room), excellent ice swimming, nice plave to watch aurora, nice people

Really nothing

nothing!

It's one of the worst places I've ever stayed at, paying this level of money. As a result, we may need to check in early since we are arriving by plane. However, even though they have empty rooms, they charge an hourly fee for early check-in. But this is not a problem either. The rooms at the hotel are nice, although they have some problems. It is in a bad location and they help with transportation. To go to the city center, you have to pay an average of 30 EUR one way. One of the interesting issues is that they offer dinner service, but it is open buffet; Let's say they cook a meal like a salad and get paid for it. You can eat this meal unlimitedly, or you can eat in the city center by paying 60 EUR round trip. The choice is up to you. It is realy terrible. I paid 30 euros per person for a meal like potato salad. There is no bar or any activity you can do in your location. They have a small sauna and it is free and only open between 5 and 7 pm. If all the rooms come, they cannot use it. You may be going for a holiday, but you have to wake up in the morning because breakfast ends at 10 o'clock. And it is better to go to breakfast at 8 o'clock. They never renew what's left for breakfast. You can't drink hot tea, and whatever food is left may have to be gnawed like a mouse. There is a television in the room that you can view with a magnifying glass. If you get bored of the activities that are not available at the hotel, you can watch television with magnifying glass. A hotel that is definitely not worth the money they charge. Frankly, if I rented a house and stayed there, I would have more options and pay much less. On your check-out day, they don't hesitate to leave a plastic bag in front of your room, giving you the message to leave as soon as possible.

The location of this hotel is very good. Although it takes ten minutes to drive to Santa Claus Village, the environment is quiet and there are super beautiful scenery. My daughter really likes this wooden house and wants to stay here forever. Every afternoon from 4 to 6 o'clock, she can also enjoy a free Finnish sauna. The service is also very friendly, and the breakfast is also very delicious. Our family will stay here again next time we come

El entorno es muy bonito, las vistas, la tranquilidad que transmite es mágico. Muy cómodo y el personal muy atento y amable, pendientes de todo para que estuviéramos a gusto

La habitación que nos toco no tenía vistas es una pena que no hayan aprovechado ese sitio tan especial para hacer todas las habitaciones con vistas…
