Resort
Luosto
Lying some 90 minutes north of Rovaniemi and 100 minutes from Kittila is the ski resort of Luosto comprising two hotels, a small cluster of beautiful log cabins, nestling amongst the fir trees and adjacent to a slalom ski slope and an attractive log cabin restaurant. It is such a beautiful and peaceful area that it is quite possible to believe that Father Christmas lives behind Luosto fell.

| ACCOMMODATION: | ||
| The well-appointed Hotel Luostotunturi was designed to fit into the natural beauty of the area and is built in the shape ofa reindeer earmarking! | Cabins vary in style but in each one you will find your own private sauna, shower and wc, kitchen area, TV and a warm air clothes dryer. | |
Twin rooms have shower, wc, TV with video satellite channel, telephone, hairdryer and minibar.
Family rooms for 3 or 4 persons can be provided with 2 individual beds and a convertible double sofa bed, or a duplex room with 2 beds at the lower level and 2 mattress beds for children at the higher level reached by a staircase (with safety gate). A highlight is the Amethyst Spa swimming pool (a grouse shaped Roman bath with various water jet massage points) and 2 jacuzzis. Breakfast and dinner are buffet style. |
For the romantics at heart there is a wonderful log fire in each one (although all have central heating as well!) Open plan cabins normally provide 2 double beds built into the wood at a lower level and 2 upper beds. Others may provide a different breakdown of beds but will still provide for a maximum of 6 persons. These will be situated 5 to 25 minutes walk from the main log cabin restaurant. Two bedroom cabins generally accommodate 4 persons, although it may be possible to obtain some for 6 persons. These cabins are situated 15 to 30 minutes walk from the restaurant. Five 'log rooms' are also available within the main building which that houses the log cabin restaurant - these are suitable for elderly persons in the party who may not wish to walk to and from the cabins. Please note that these rooms do not have a sauna or log fire. Towels and linen are provided in the cabins and log rooms and clients may use the facilities such as the swimming pool, solarium etc at the Hotel Luostotunturi as an additional cost. |

A small restaurant for up to 60 and a lobby bar seating up to 30 complete the fine facilities of this hotel. Igloo accommodation Whether you are accommodated in a hotel or cabin the lure of the Arctic may prevail.

Meals:
Breakfast and evening meals are taken in the main log cabin restaurant or the hotel restaurant. Persons accommodated in log cabins managed through the Hotel Luostotunturi eat in the Luostotunturi restaurant. Other cabin guests will be generally allocated the log cabin restaurant, but where numbers need to be balanced, you may be allocated the Luostotunturi restaurant or the Luoston Hovi restaurant. This will be stated on your final itinerary.The main log cabin restaurant is now totally non-smoking.
Guests accommodated at the Aurora Chalet Hotel are offered buffet breakfast and waiter service for evening meals (parents can discuss children's needs with the waiter). All meals are buffet style at the main log cabin restaurant and the hotel. For dinner children have the opportunity to select from their own buffet, or select from the adult buffet. During activity days meals are taken at an outdoor venue. On the final day all guests will eat at the log cabin restaurant or the hotel. Drinks are not included with meals and should be paid for locally.
Should you wish to try some typical Lappish cuisine during your stay then it is possible to eat at Kertulli's, a small restaurant with waiter service, facing the hotel and within walking distance from the cabins. Lappish meals are built around soups, main courses consisting of reindeer and desserts of cheese and berries. You can select from the restaurant's a la carte menu and child friendly meals can be prepared if required. A supplement is payable if you would prefer to eat here and this must be booked at the time of your initial holiday reservation - it cannot be booked in resort.
