    ABOUT THE HOTEL

    • Official Rating

    Surrounded by snow-covered slopes and huge stretches of pine forest, the Lapland Hotel Saaga offers up views that are second to none.

    You’ll find it hard to beat the mountain scenery that surrounds the Lapland Hotel Saaga – drift-drenched slopes, frozen lakes and pine forests all put in appearances.

    The hotel’s mountain setting and next-door ski lift gives instant access to hiking, skiing, snowboarding and tobogganing trails. As for the interiors, expect roaring fires, sink-into sofas and wood-panelled walls.

    You'll find the details of your itinerary below - just remember that all itineraries are subject to change. You can find your final itinerary on the TUI Lapland app two days before you're due to go - just search for TUI Lapland in the App Store or Google Play to download it.

    Your Itinerary

    • ARRIVE IN KITTILA

      You’ll get a traditional cooked English breakfast on your flight to Lapland. After landing at Kittila airport, you’ll pick up your thermal clothing before you take the transfer to your hotel in Yllas. Once you’ve arrived, the rest of the day’s yours to suss out your snowy surroundings.

    • SNOW VILLAGE AND SANTA

      There’s lots on the agenda today. First up, you’ll get a big dose of Lappish culture at the snow village. This is the place where you’ll have your husky-sleigh ride taster session before decorating cookies and making Christmas ornaments. Next, you’ll zoom through the snow on a toboggan ride as you make your way to the big event – your meeting with Santa.

    • FREE TIME/FESTIVE FINALE

      Today’s free for you to explore at your own leisure, or book in an extra TUI experience – just make sure you book before you go so you don’t risk missing out. If you’re staying for three nights, you’ll hand your thermal clothing back today before you head to your festive finale this evening, where you’ll tuck into a Christmas dinner with all the trimmings. Meanwhile, those staying for four nights will have a free evening.

    • FLY HOME/FESTIVE FINALE

      Whether you stayed for three or four nights, you’ll get a festive Christmas dinner on your flight back home. For those on a three-night trip, it’s time to head back to the airport ready for your flight home today. Or, if you’ve still got another night left, you’ll have another free day to fit in anything you missed the day before. Search for Yllass for all the options. Later, you’ll hand in your thermal clothing before heading to your festive finale, which will feature a Christmas dinner with all the trimmings.

    Fantastic hotel

    Stayed in 2 bed apartment. Everything you need. Drying area and separate sauna which is amazing. Small shop under apartment for everyday essentials. Hotel located right on the slope. 1 min walk to gondola and carpet lifts. Ski school opposite hotel. Limited on eating out....we only ate in restaurant across from hotel but eat early closes early. Also ate in bar area of hotel as meals were really nice but expensive. Cheaper than booking half board option though. Drinks expensive especially wine. So get duty free. Ski conditions amazing and never queued got lift and that was half term.
    brilliant - loved it!

    The apartments (we staid in a 2 bedroom one) were brilliant. Very new feeling, comfy, spacious and well equipped. We stayed bed and breakfast and the selection of foods available at breakfast was some of the best I have ever had. Sauna in the apartment was lovely. Really quite and peacefull one oddity about the apartment was that they second bedroom didn't have a door which isn't great from a privacy perspective. We fashioned one with a spare bed sheet and gaffa tape - be warned and bring gaffa tape! The village itself is relatively limited which is ice. The main bar / pub shuts at six pm so if you want to eat out at reasonable price be in there by 5!! Not overly expensive (cheaper than average French ski village process) Skiing is brilliant due to the lack of people and the endless untracked off piste. Pistes are relatively limited but you cant really get tired of blasting empty red runs on fresh perfect snow. Views from the top incredible. oh and dont walk on the cross country ski trails... !
    A very pleasent stay

    We came to ski for four days with my son with all our gear along. The standard room is spacious and clean, you get your own locker for skis, you have a small drying closet in your bathroom, excellent breakfast and the daily Spa visit after sking before dinner is relaxing with its pool, whirlpool and saunas. Service was kind and helpful, will stay here again
    Magical stay

    We stayed in this hotel between 9th - 12th Dec, booking through Tuis Lapland trips. We found the hotel extremely good with no complaints at all about it. We had a standard twin room which was a good size, great bathroom, and very comfy beds. Plenty of storage for clothes and for the snowsuits and boots that were provided. We were staying B and B and the breakfasts were amazing with so much choice and all beautifully cooked. We also thought that being able to order hot drinks and snacks at reception was a great idea and enjoyed several lovely hot chocolates sitting by the fire looking out onto the snow! All staff were extremely friendly and helpful and the hotel was very well organised in all aspects. The hotel is right next to the ski slopes and there are plenty of places for tobogganing and walks. A few restaurants are opposite. Our festive finale dinner was at Taiga just across from the hotel and was very enjoyable. Would definitely recommend staying here - in fact we enjoyed it so much we are returning this coming December!
    Booking not possible and support request never answered

    I tried to book a ski charlet rum on the website for a holida in March at the non-refundable price, which was not possible due to an booking rate error. My email to the hotel was never answered and now a couple of days later the room is not available anymore.
