"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Wonderful stay at Riekko Lodge We are very happy that we chose Riekko Lodge for our stay in Lapland, Finland. The lodge consists of more than 20 cozy wooden villas. Ours was one of the smaller ones, but it was more than enough for our family of two adults and two children. The villa was very comfortable and well equipped: a small entrance area, a full kitchen with built-in appliances, a living room with dining area, a nice bedroom, and a loft with two single beds and a cozy chair....

"Location and staff were great. Buffet breakfast is very good. Dinner in the hotel at night was really bad though. (Had to go out to find something decent). Our room required about 10 doors and two flights of stairs so perhaps ask for something close to the amenities. You have to add everything (eg room clean, access to gym pool etc). Full of kids, fun place for families. "

10/10 Excellent
"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Wonderful stay at Riekko Lodge We are very happy that we chose Riekko Lodge for our stay in Lapland, Finland. The lodge consists of more than 20 cozy wooden villas. Ours was one of the smaller ones, but it was more than enough for our family of two adults and two children. The villa was very comfortable and well equipped: a small entrance area, a full kitchen with built-in appliances, a living room with dining area, a nice bedroom, and a loft with two single beds and a cozy chair. Our kids were absolutely happy to have the second floor for themselves. There were also two bathrooms and a great private sauna. We stayed in early December, and after the sauna we loved going outside and jumping into the snow. Our villa was number 1, which gave us extra privacy. The kids also enjoyed playing in the snow near the house. The location is beautiful — on a hill near a river, surrounded by snowy nature like a fairy tale. We were lucky to see the Northern Lights on several clear nights. One wall of the villa is fully glass, so we could watch them from inside the house, although outside they were even more impressive. Breakfast was included and very good. There is also a lovely restaurant nearby where we had dinner once and really enjoyed the tasty local food. The staff were always friendly, welcoming, and helpful. Thank you for a wonderful experience. We truly hope to return to Riekko Lodge someday. "

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Pajala?
The best area to stay in Pajala is the town center, which offers convenient access to local amenities and the Kalix River.

The town center of Pajala is relatively compact, with the main street, Soukolojärvivägen, running through it. You'll find the local supermarket, a few eateries, and the community center within easy walking distance. The Kalix River flows nearby, offering opportunities for fishing and enjoying the natural surroundings. This area is ideal for solo travelers or couples looking for a practical and central base to explore the region.

For those interested in experiencing the natural beauty and outdoor activities, staying in accommodations just outside the town center, closer to the countryside, can be a good option. These areas often provide a more peaceful setting and direct access to hiking trails, cross-country skiing routes, and opportunities to observe the Northern Lights.
