Lapland Hotels Hetta in Enontekio

Location is great. Right next to a lake and the lake will be frozen in winter so you can see the aurora on the lake.

Good place to stay, great food
We stayed in an apartment across the street from the hotel. A little dated, but lots of space. A large kitchen, two bedrooms and a private sauna. Only thing I missed was WI-FI which is not available in apartments, only hotel rooms and lobby. Hotel is otherwise very nice, easy access to public sauna and pool. The food is great, especially impressed over breakfast. Everything tastes fresh and not mass produced to maximize profit.

Great family hotel,perfect for us:)

Lapland Hotel Hetta was a wonderful experience! The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming – you really feel the warm hospitality from the moment you arrive. The food was absolutely delicious – both dinner and breakfast exceeded expectations. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and clearly prepared with care. While the hotel itself is a bit dated in some areas, the beds were very comfortable and the view from the room was beautiful, with that peaceful, untouched Lapland charm. All in all, a cozy and authentic stay with top-notch service and great food. Would definitely come back!

We stayed here with Tui in December and absolutely loved it. Yes it’s mostly a trip to take your young ones to see Santa but as an only adult couple, I adored it! We stayed in a bungalow over the road and it was very warm and equipped with everything you needed. Staff and Tui staff at the hotel were amazing. Food was really lovely too. All trips were well organised and great. The coldest we had it was -28 but with the correct layers and clothing provided I didn’t feel it. Finland is such a beautiful country in the snow, I loved seeing all the local houses decorated for Christmas. The locals are very friendly too. The huskies were are favourite I’d do it all again in a heartbeat :)

We had the best time at Hotel Hetta, staying in 2 of their bungalows. The bungalows are basic, clean and have everything you need. They are spacious, have areas for drying suits and boots. Lots of kitchen amenities, with a large fridge freezer and plenty of cupboard space. We were able to enjoy the dinning table to play games and perfect for a quick pasta or noodles to give the kids energy for sledding. The bungalows backed onto a little hill for sledding which the kids and adults loved. Not to be confused with the hill that leads into the main Road though! The food at breakfast and evenings (half board) was great. Plenty of choice and some local twists with a few meals. Soup every night, salad bar, puddings and 3/4 hot main meals. In our party there was something for everyone and we all enjoyed. Kids struggled a bit and those who like their home comforts might find it difficult. It’s a small hotel so not loads of options but we always found something we’d eat. We also once had lunch in the hotel and enjoyed the pizzas and chicken and chips. Set in a lovely remote location. Felt Christmassy and because it’s so north just loads of snow. A proper white Christmas. We went on the frozen lake every night, walked to the fell centre, walked into the town. Everyone was very welcoming, would visit again.

A pleasant surprise in the middle of nowhere (no offence).

The hotel itself, located by a lake, is a combination of Finnish rustic and modernism, which creates a somewhat unique atmosphere. The interior seemed to be original (70s-80s?), and well kept and clean.

The service was great from even before we arrived (they called to hear if we were okay as we were running late). The restaurant, with a kitchen focused on local ingredients, and its attentive staff, made me wish I could stay for another night.

A great stay
We stayed in a very dated apartment (I believe they are in the process of renovating), but it was large and mostly clean. It had a kitchen and a sauna. The hotel has a restaurant with a view of a lake. The food quality was great! There was also a pool, but we never tried it.

We are overwhelmed. To find a hotel so far up north in a small village with amazing food like this was a big surprise. Add to that serviceminded staff with great knowledge and a nice view.

After we were driving 3h through the woods (from Kiruna) we arrived in this pretty quiet place. We really didn't expect that high quality à la carte dinner here. It was really a pleasure. We had a warm welcome at this hotel and the service in the restaurant (Matilda and a man, I can't remember his name) was excellent!
The rooms are a bit old but you have everything you need, a beautiful view over the lake, comfortable bed, tv and a sauna. Also a big breakfast buffet. In the total the hotel is great with its very friendly staff. Thanks a lot!
