Salla - Posio, Finland hotel rooms at the Independent

"The property views were gorgeous. The staff was very friendly & accommodating. "

"The hotel is amazing, the location is key, ski-in-and-out. Right next to Ruka Ski Resort Gondola. The room assigned to me was clean, very charming and cozy. The bed was super comfortable, nice winter blankets, and soft pillows. Breakfast was included and it is a massive buffet with healthy options. I loved the food and the service. There are restaurants, shopping stores, and tour agencies all within walking distance. Also the bus stop to the airport is a 4 minute walk. I would come back to this hotel and location big time. Finland is a dream!!"

"Check in was friendly and simple, room was clean. I had an early bus and left before breakfast but they delivered it to my room the night before for no extra charge and it was delicious!"

"Lots of skii routes and easy access to the lifts. Great place to skii from January to April. You can also go and see the northern lights in the area since its right on the border or the arctic circle."

"Our stay was exactly what my fiancé and I were hoping for! The room had absolutely everything needed for a ski trip. It had a spectacular view with both a hot tub and sauna. It was spacious, equipped with all the kitchen necessities, and was close to the rentals and gondola. Not too mention all the nearby restaurants and shops. We couldn’t have been happier with our stay."

"We stayed in the igloos and cooked and ate meals both in the igloo and also dinner in the restaurant. 1. Staff were amazing and lovely 2. Food and wine options for dinner and the cosy restaurant was delightful and enjoyable 3. We also cooked and ate in our igloo and the kitchen provided all the kitchen items we needed and were happy for us to drop things off to be cleaned 4. I found the igloos to be surprisingly spacious with lots of spots to store things 5. Small compostable toilet was fine for evening use and we didn’t mind heading up to the main guesthouse for showers and to use bathrooms 6. The bathrooms are a little dated but clean and functional 7. People mentioned in past reviews about the big step to the deck of the igloo. However you don’t need to do the big step as you can walk around a different paths Overall we had a totally amazing experience and I could have stayed longer "

"The villa was great and a good fit for our break point during our road trip up to Kittilä. A bit narrow for 8 people but good fun overall! Thanks Villa Havula."

"We stayed in Glass Villas - view was amazing, everything was really nice. I would have liked a proper double bed, but the two beds that were pushed together were also comfortable. Ventilation made quite a lot of noise, but it also meant that we could adjust the temperature as we liked. I would definitely stay there again."

"Room was hot. No a/c. Food was good."
