Santa’s Hotel Tunturi

4 Diamonds

A unique hotel with an excellent choice of rooms and suites, including the recently added luxury Gielas wing. I love the atmosphere here, backed up by friendly service and great food.

  • Attractive and comfortable hotel
  • Holiday Club leisure centre approx. 3 minutes’ walk (300m)
  • Luxury Gielas wing offering superb family bedrooms, all with private bath/wc, sauna and balcony
  • Family suites have private saunas
  • Small children’s play area
  • Reception lounge area and cosy lounge bar
  • FREE use of toboggans
  • Hot and cold buffet breakfast
  • Half-board option includes excellent 3-course evening meals with choices (sometimes buffet-style), with a special Gala Buffet Dinner on your last night*

I have chosen this hotel for its renowned friendly service and excellent food, and the fact that so many guests come back year after year. Well designed, the hotel features a main central building as its focal point, including the reception, restaurants and bar, where musical entertainment is on offer every evening.

The well established, comfortable accommodation buildings are set in a charming wooded area near the cross-country ski trails, within an easy 2-3 minute walk of the main Tunturi building.
