Great wilderness cafe from good distance from äkäslompolo village, this distance is suitable also for beginners and children who wants to experience nordic landscapes by cross country skiing. You need to prepared for those 'lapland special' prices at all cafes out here so it might feel a litle expensive but you can't have this athmosphere enywhere else.

Yllashumina, Humina Restaurant

Reviewed By Ned L

I was staying locally on business. This was the second restaurant we tried in Akaslompolo. The first restaurant had been recommended locally but had been a disappointment. The food at Humina was excellent. We had the 4 course buffet meal. There were lots of dishes to choose from. All the food was tasty, well prepared and hot food nicely cooked. The variety of fish served was amazing. Although I usually drink beer we decided to try the wine. Not being too sure on what to choose I asked for advice and spoke to a member of staff who turned out to be the owner, and with his friendly advice we had some very nice red. Staff were helpful and friendly too. We had an excellent meal and I will visit again. Would recommend this restaurant.

Ravintola Rouhe

Reviewed By britsuomi

On this occasion, we visited the Christmas Eve buffet, although we have been here a few times on previous trips.The buffet was incredible, very varied, and so many local options. Too many to list, picture attached for reference.We did seems to be one of the few tourist tables, which for me is a positive, and the staff even humoured my Finnish, although they understood English very well.On previous visits we have eaten 'regular' evening meals as opposed to buffet, and were very impressed with the meals, service and selection of drinks/wines to match your meal choice. Not the cheapest ravintola in town, but for us, it has always been well worth it.

Restaurant has nice atmosphere and service is very friendly. Menu has no big surprises, but for local Lapland specialities this is a very good choice (ofcourse especially reindeer as their name suggests... Poro means reindeer in finnish...)

An old building turned into a café with reindeer soup, hot and cold drinks, and a very nice atmosphere. It is right where cross-country skiing starts in Ylläsjärvi and it's just beautiful all around. Highly recommend !

Easy lunch and after-ski choice during ski day - restaurant is just by the main ski lift base station. Service is friendly and place has nice fireplace for warming up. Menu is basic - pizza's, pasta's, burgers, chicken wings and nachos etc... But everything was ok, as long as you don't expect anything special.

Had fondue dinner with family and some friends. We started with cheese and continued with beef and reindeer. All was very good and the wine list still decently priced. Sweets were good but downgraded on quality from our past visit last year, that took the last point away this time.Thank you and welcome agains!

Yllas Saaga

Reviewed By TMC825

Saaga hotel very cosy and friendly. Didn't use the spa facilities as spare time was spent sledging. Could step outside hotel room patio door and go sledging with one of the hotel provided sledges. Snow quality for skiing was fabulous. Not the longest ski runs or the most, but not a problem given that ski lift queues were 10 people at the busiest, and we were there in their busiest week!Fabulous holiday, with huskey sled rides and reindeer farm visit as well as the skiing.

Aurora Estate Restaurant

Reviewed By Mackan84

We are at the moment traveling Lapland around on an combined northern hunt and food journey. I have been traveling all over the world, and are a bit of food and hotel nerd, focusing on the details of different hotels.The hotel itself will be reviewed separately, but book if you can, you won’t be disappointed as it really impressed me, far more than the 700€/ night accommodations we have visited on this tour. As for the restaurant, and the food it was the absolutely best dinner we have had during this trip. The food was delicious, and the presentation of the dish looked perfect and was very well planned. You got recommendations on matching wines for each dish and information about what was on your plate. To the owners and kitchen staff;You are doing an amazing job, and are also enjoying it as all guest can see and taste in your delicious food. Wonderful! Dear Marcus,We are happy to hear that you enjoyed all the aspects of your visit and very flattered about the fact that you actually planned your trip so that you could include us to your travel plan.We hope to see you again, thank you for your kind words!Best regardsHeidi
