It's great that they offer transfer to and from the resort, the resort is beautiful and the spa is very good. The only downside was the food at dinner, very poor presentation and not very tasty.

Unforgettable Stay at Aito!

We had an amazing experience at Aito, and we highly recommend it! The spa facilities were excellent, with finnish sauna and jacuzzi. Snowmobiling was an exciting adventure that allowed us to explore the beautiful surroundings in a fun way. The lake-view igloo was simply adorable—though small, it offered stunning views and a cozy, magical atmosphere. We absolutely loved the Junior Suite. It was spacious, beautifully decorated, and felt like a true home away from home. The staff at the resort were incredibly helpful and attentive, making our stay even more enjoyable. Overall, our time at Aito was unforgettable, and we hope to return one day!

Amazing stay

The service was excellent, breakfast was amazing. Beautiful location, very relaxing. Patti was very helpful. Being newly open I’d say they need a few extra things to explain how some items worked. We stayed in the Nest and without remembering all the explanations, we may have had some difficulty.

The location was superb and so were the facilities. However, there is no management to guide the young staff left alone to run the hotel.....there is also more to be done on clearly stating the local activities and prices....the restaurant menu, especially lunch need to be a more varied if you are staying for more than two days. Airport pickup is chaotic and overal management needs to be improved.

It's a Wonderful Gem hidden in Lapland. The front staff was very friendly and helpful. The spa was amazing, relaxing, and beautiful. The salmon soup for lunch was amazing and delicious. The fine dining was a bit understaffed, but the staff was lovely and made up for the long wait. We enjoyed the Aurora Tree House—it was beautiful. Our tip would be to add some amenities to the hotel room, like a vanity set, dental set, etc. We loved this place!

Good but could have been better.

Good but not great. Some things were excellent but the excessive light pollution from the hotel and the excessive amounts of light diminished the aurora experience. Even all the way on the lake the bright lights of the resort spilled excessive light pollution for what is otherwise an extremely dark area. The treehouse was very fun, dinner was good but slow.

Absolutely beautiful, highly recommend. We cant wait to go back . The only things would suggest and not a criticism at all , but a mirror in the bedroom area would have been nice and a wider choice of lunch time menu, but understand they are keeping to traditional cuisine. A coffee lounge area would have have been amazinv give. The location . Honestly the best place i have ever visited . YOU HAVE TO GO !!

Treehouse not worth the price

Stayed in one of the treehouses for one night and took advantage of the spa. The novelty wears off once you realize you can’t control the temp of your room. The spa was fine but already needed had some wear and tear despite being relatively new. American style breakfast want worth waking up in the dark for.

We choose to stay in the igloo upon viewing the room is was not as listed on Expedia. I advised the hotel of this and they didn’t offer a solution. I asked if we could go into a lesser room with based facilities. I was told I couldn’t get my money back. This is not acceptable.
