Our verdict
Arctic TreeHouse is known for its architecture: timber suites raised on a hillside with a floor-to-ceiling window facing the forest. The standard suite is 27 m²; the GlassHouse (50 m²) and ArcticScene Executive Suite (55 m²) add a private sauna.
No suite has a glass roof, and site lighting plus the nearby town limit aurora views from bed. On site there is Rakas restaurant, the Syvä wellness area and free winter gear such as sledges and snowshoes.
Value for money is the weakest category on every platform, and some guests mention extra charges and inconsistent service for the price.
