Okay, so you don't go to Lapland for the luxury and the famous Finnish cuisine but the food and service at this hotel is dreadful. Inedible scrambled egg at breakfast and very little choice of anything else. Bread and water are good. Evening food was just as bad with overcooked meat which smelt awful. Ordering from the menu is expensive... More

stayed at the Holiday club from 10th February 2008 for 1 week. Firstly, on the positive, Finland is a lovely resort to ski for begginers as we were. The slopes are quiet and there are no ques for chair lifts etc. On the down side.... We found the Holiday club to be far from a four star resort. If like... More

We stayed at the Tropikii for one week with Activities Abroad with our eleven year old son. We did toboganning, snowmobiling, cross country skiiing, snow-shoeing, husky sledding, skiing, reinder farm etc etc. It was great fun and one of the best holidays we have ever had. The hotel facilities are good - tropical swimming pool, ten pin, sports bar, badminton.... More

The hotel is not a four star as it is rated in the brochure. I would class it more of a 3 star, as the standard of the food is average. The pool is a good size but everytime we went into it, it was cold even though the temperature was supposed to be around 30 degrees! The evening buffet... More

We landed in Snow for the first time ever on a ski-ing holiday, normally when we ski we have a long 4 hour transfer journey, only 1/2 an hour this time wonderful. excellent warm Finnish welcome which was experienced everywhere we went. The Hotel Club Tropikiki in Kusammo was clean,comfy, warm and had loads of sports and leisure facilities. excellent... More

Ruka is a great resort for beginners/intermediates. The slopes are really uncrowded, the tuition good and the mountain restaurants really reasonably priced (wow!). The weather did drop to -30 plus wind-chill which was bitter but we still went out on the slopes; the chairlifts didn't work at these temperatures but T-bar lifts were open. The hotel is a bit of...
