Iisakki Glass Village

We have been welcomed at Iisakki Village by such a warm-hearted and friendly team, which allowed us to experience one of the best weeks we've ever had. The team at the reception, the guides and the restaurant crew make this lovely place an unforgettable memory. They put so much love and effort in providing a comfortable atmosphere in the accommodation, doesn't matter if it is the glass villa or the guest house, both highly recommendable by the way, in the restaurants and on the outside. We booked nearly all winter activities we could get and did not regret to experience a good taste of Finnish lifestyle. Even though it was not cheap, but this is not what you're searching for when visiting Scandinavia. And the guides really made a great job, everything was so organized. And after a long day of activities, we have been pleased with dinner, which made us feel like eating in a high class restaurant. My wife and me are thankful having met such great people and that we got the chance to discover this lovely place. Kiitos paljon

The glass ceiling hut stay was very nice although there was on snow on the top pf the ceiling. The food was bad and did not match at all with the quality of accommodation. It was supposed to be a three course dinner but turned out to be a buffet The taste was uninteresting and reminded of office meals. The waitress warned that one should not take too much so that they would not run out of food (this happened in the very beginning). Additionally the people were put into a tiny room to eat and that was not very pleasant during covid19.

Just got back today after the most incredible holiday ever! We stayed in the Glass Village and it was just absolutely magical! Pulling the curtains open in the morning to such views that are out of this world and falling asleep every night looking at stars. It was very cold like -20 cold but we made sure to layer up. There is a restaurant that we only ate at for breakfast due to having other arrangements in place for meals but breakfast was a lovely start to the morning with loads of different options available. There is also a Ski bus that takes you to Ruka but make sure you get the timetable otherwise you may be waiting a while. The bus was €4 pp 1 way which is a decent price and it drops you off pretty much in the village centre. There are taxi numbers and we ended up in a taxi one afternoon and it was at a cost of around €27. Would defo recommend this and would stay here again!

This place is out of this world! We stayed two night and really enjoyed our cabin. It felt amazing to have such an amazing view over the lake and later watch stars from the bed through the glass ceiling at night. Super quality! Also, there’s an area to make fire. Restaurant and breakfast we’re wonderful! We also took a kayak on the lake and enjoyed a nice afternoon kayaking.
