Great room for the price, nice clean hotel with modern upkeep. Staff was great, especially the restaurant staff after hours when help was needed. Nothing bad to say other than breakfast and parking situation.

Ruka village is lively and with good selection of bars and restaurants.

Compact and convenient for most things.
Compact and convenient for most things. Skiiers used to Alpine ski resorts will find it small but it has good snow and being amongst trees is lovely. Bear in mind that beginners wanting the easiest slopes should be at the Valley side not the Village side or else you'll need to bus/gondola across.

I was in the summer.... which is still not too warm... so take that in to consideration.
There are TONS of mosquitoes, you wouldn't believe, but still the area is beautiful and the things to is basically kayaking, hiking or just relaxing. you must have a car to get around and it's better to purchase food and cook for yourself where you stay.

Ruka is a great family resort.
Ruka is a great family resort. A winter paradise with cross country skiing and downhill skiing available. There is also a ski school. I recommend staying in Ruka village side rather than Ruka valley side.
Ice slide onto small frozen lake was super popular with my kids as well as watching the ski jumping.
Highly recommend the ski school and Lammintupa for reindeer and husky adventures.

Ruka is a very friendly and family oriented place but my son...
Ruka is a very friendly and family oriented place but my son and his friends enjoyed the night- life at Ruka village too. Skiing is for those who enjoy the more relaxed atmosphere as this place doesn’t have many if any for the more experienced ones. We did not have to queue at the lifts. Nevertheless it is very popular with couples and families alike . There are plenty of places to eat in , or use the take-away services too. We would definitely go back next year. Loved it!

Beautiful place, fantastic food in the restuarants in Ruka...
Beautiful place, fantastic food in the restuarants in Ruka Village. Must try Stefans Steakhouse. Do book with Ruka Adventures for experiences, they are exciting, genuine and very helpful. The Cabin is cosy and warm and an ideal place to relax. Would highly recommend to all.
The location is absolutely gorgeous and the cabins, although tiny, are absolutely beautiful. We enjoyed our time by the bonfire and watched northern lights from here. They even have snow shoes available to go hike some of the trails around. Beautiful stay which is close to the ski town of Ruka which has plenty of food options. It was nice that the breakfast is included in the morning. Ruka Pizza was amazing gormet pizza we ate.
A beautiful location with stunning views. Access to the Ruka Valley Slopes were very convenient, just a 15 minute walk away. The Cottage facilities were exceptional, everything that we required was very much on hand. Added extras, all that we could possibly need to get our holiday well and truly of to a good start. Thankfully our host pretty much had everything in order which meant we had no pressing issues.
Beautiful hotel right by the lake. Great views from the restaurant/breakfast room. Nice fireplace that gives a great ambiance to the room. Electric Sauna was good too. The rooms are equipped with an electrical clothes dryer which is very thoughtful and was already useful in the fall, so I can only imagine how useful it will be in winter! The location is great as well, just a short walk from Ruka village.
The house was modern, new and good size. The kitchen was well equipped- we had everything what we needed. The most, we liked the location - in the middle of the forest - perfect for the skiing holiday and Christmas celebration. The cross country skiing tracks started close to the house; and the Ruka alpine skiing centre was very close as well. Quiet and beautiful place - perfect for winter holiday!
Comfortable and good sized apartment, very helpful host. The apartment is near to a ski bus stop and also only a 20 minute walk to Ruka village. Beautiful location and all the facilities you would need; good wifi, well equipped kitchen, sauna, good heating, comfortable beds, location to keep skis/snowboards.
Excellent situated in the Village with all that you need within walking distance. The shop was in the first floor.
Beautiful conditions with Ski tracks and downhill slopes.
One of the better Ski sites in Europe.
Nice flat with everything you need for your own household.
Silent neighborhood
Easy and near access to skiing to Talvijärvi
Easy to walk to the nearest ski lift along Talvijärvi lake

Location is great! 3 minutes drive from Ruka's center. Kitchen was well equipped, showers were great and so was the fireplace with lots of ready wood in the storage. There's also a smart big screen TV and a big dining table. plenty of space.
I like the location and the ambiance of the hotel. Basic rooms, but as a ski-in hotel it provides easy access to both the slopes and cross-country tracks. The hotel's restaurant is a good one with a real live fireplace boosting a cozy feel.
Nice location by the lake, 15min to Ruka east slopes.
The place is cozy. The dryer is convenient for drying gloves and ski clothes.
The kitchen is compact but very well equipped.
The villa we booked is spacious and cozy. We love everything. The village itself is beautiful. The staff are very friendly and helpful. We hope we could stay longer.
Very cosy cabin with wonderful atmosphere. Remote but still to close to Ruka. Comfortable beds. Excellent value for money. Easy communication with the owner.
