10/10 Excellent
"The best part of our Lapland trip was staying at this house. It truly had everything we could have wished for — a sauna, beautiful snowy surroundings, peaceful forest views, fully equipped kitchen, and even drying machines, which were extremely useful. The two-bedroom layout was excellent. One of the bedrooms, located under the roof, offered a stunning view of the aurora — such a magical experience. The kota was also a lovely highlight, especially on the night we went out and were lucky enough to see the northern lights. The staff were incredibly kind and helpful throughout our stay, making everything smooth and comfortable. The location is quiet and relaxing, yet still convenient if you have a car and want to go into the town center. Breakfast was simple but good, and we really enjoyed our easy mornings over the four nights we stayed. The kids especially loved the sledges provided — they had so much fun playing in the snow. We would absolutely love to come back again!"

"Great and easy check in with lovely staff. Room lively and spotlessly clean. Breakfast was plentiful at the buffet in the morning. Sauna was fantastic at the end of a long day and free to use from 4pm. Parking was easy just in front of the hotel. Great stay! "

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Pajala?
The best areas to stay in Pajala are within the town centre itself or just outside for those seeking a more secluded experience.Pajala town centre offers the most convenience, with hotels and guesthouses clustered around the main street, Kengisvägen. This area provides easy access to local shops, the supermarket, and local eateries. It's a practical base for exploring the surrounding Torne Valley.For travellers interested in the Northern Lights or a peaceful retreat, staying slightly outside the town centre is a good option. Many accommodations in this area are purpose-built for winter activities, often featuring direct access to snowmobile trails and offering opportunities for dog sledding or ice fishing.
When is the best time to go to Pajala?
The best time to go to Pajala depends on whether you're seeking the midnight sun or the northern lights, with the summer months (June-August) ideal for the former and winter (December-February) for the latter.For those keen to experience the continuous daylight of the midnight sun, June and July are perfect. During these months, the sun never fully sets, offering extended hours for outdoor activities like hiking, fishing, and exploring the surrounding nature reserves. This period is particularly suitable for couples who enjoy long evenings outdoors and a relaxed pace.Conversely, if witnessing the spectacular aurora borealis is your priority, then the dark, clear nights of December, January, and February offer the best chances. The snow-covered landscapes during winter also provide opportunities for activities such as husky sledding, snowmobiling, and cross-country skiing.
