About Davvi Arctic Lodge
When you step inside from an amazing day's activities amid the snow, ice and spendour of Europe's last wilderness, warmth is the commodity your body and soul most longs for.
And warmth is exactly what you will be met with at the Davvi Arctic Lodge, a simple hotel steeped in local charm and character. An open fire blazes in the hotel's cosy lounge, while the warmth of the welcome provided by the staff will soon have your cheeks glowing with pleasure.
It's time to kick off those heavy layers of clothing and relax by the glow of the flickering fireside, perhaps with a glass of wine, a coffee or a warming brandy, while hungrily anticipating dinner.
The accommodation is set on a secluded hillside on the edge of Karesuando, allowing you to savour the peace and tranquility of this beautiful, unspoiled region. The centrepiece of the hotel is its distinctive restaurant, which provides spectacular panoramic views across the snow-covered hillside towards the Swedish part of Karesuando.
The circular design of the restaurant is inspired by the shape of the Sami reindeer corral. Nearby is the lounge area, where a log fire burns invitingly, again part of a circular structure., with a centre skylight that represents the ventilation hole at the top of a Dami Lavvu, or reindeer-hide tent. The lounge is comfortably furnished with sofas, chairs and occasional tables, and is equipped with a large flat-screen television.
Davvi offers three choices of accommodation. You can stay in the hotel rooms, in timber cabins in the grounds, or in the family rooms at The Fell House, a converted border guard and customs hosue, a short (appro. 150m) walk from the main hotel.
The Cabins
The Davvi Arctic Lodge offers accommodation in timber-built cabins conveniently situated within its grounds. The cabins are simple but cosy and all are en suite (shower, WC). Most cabins are semi-detached and sleep three or four, with one double or two single beds plus a sofa bed for up to two children in a open-plan area. Please note that, as with hotel rooms, when the cabins are filled to maximum occupancy levels, the space and storage can be limited. There are two large, detached two-bedroom cabins that can sleep five or six, with one double bedroom and one twin bedroom, as well as a sofa bed in the living area that can take one or two children (or one adult). All cabins are located just metres from the main hotel building where meals are taken. All cabins have private saunas.

Sauna. Shower and WC.
