Ski-Inn RukaVillage

Great location at the bottom of the lift which was handy for a mid day sauna in the -20 degree weather! Having a ski clothing warmer and sauna was amazing but instructions for those and the dishwasher could be more accessible. No free parking. Would definitely go back!

Effective charging place, over 100 kWh, for electric car is missing. There is only 22 kWh place. Location is good.

Sauna in room is great. Able to access by code on arrival.

Place to be for a skier The room was a great place for a skier, the slopes are just outside of the door! Simple but clean, very nice staff!

Our stay was exactly what my fiancé and I were hoping for! The room had absolutely everything needed for a ski trip. It had a spectacular view with both a hot tub and sauna. It was spacious, equipped with all the kitchen necessities, and was close to the rentals and gondola. Not too mention all the nearby restaurants and shops. We couldn’t have been happier with our stay.

Great accommodation and centrally located. We stayed as a family in a 2 bedroom apartment and it came equipped with full kitchen, lovely seating area, double shower and sauna. The views from the apartment were amazing and with it being so central getting to all local amenities was very easy

Looked nice but not the beds promised It said that it had beds for 8 and we put we have 7. It showed 8 regular twin beds when we booked, but got there and there was only 6 twin and a very uncomfortable sofa bed that definitely could not sleep 2 I asked about it but they said the room technically sleeps 8 and wouldn’t move us. Overall clean and spacious. Both the showers are in one bathroom with sauna and washing. Machine and toilet all in one space, so the setup is not ideal for multiple people needing to shower quickly. The other 2 bathrooms were just half baths. No one is available on location during the evening, so when we needed help turning the sauna on, no one could help us. Dishwasher didn’t clean.i asked for coffee filters and was told we have to buy our own which seems weird from all the places we’ve stayed.

The hotel/apartments were great, amazing location, fully equipped apartment... The only downside was the food, we stayed half board so had breakfast in the Colorado bar, the selection was very limited and they only had one 2 slice toaster which was very frustrating. The staff were also rude and very unhelpful. Dinner was in the piste restaurant, staff were very friendly and there was a kids play area which was great. However the food selection was very poor: 2 meat options, one veg and one potato and the only drinks available were water and coffee. Each meal worked out at £26 per person per night, it was definitely not worth that when you can buy a large pizza over the road for £14! We have already booked again for next year but this time self-catering!

Ruka Finland was a great location, we went with Crystal Ski. Alleged transfer was 25 mins it took us well over an hour. Also had to wait at the airport as our coach was still being used by others waiting to get in to the airport. Very small airport and limited capacity with crystal bringing so many people in a small time frame put a strain on the airport. That said all the airport staff were very helpful and friendly. Crystal communications are poor. Welcome letter had different information than what we were told. Even got a text that contradicted the letter and that was sent late. We went to the welcome talk and again got different info that should have been passed on arrival. That was the last we saw of Crystal reps until departure. The apartment was great sauna was great after skiing and room very good. Really great getting into the room with the code. Food was awful. Do not do half-board. Self-catering is the way. Evening meal first night was told to order off the menu. This was wrong and there was a hot (was not hot, lukewarm at best) and cold buffet. Pudding was frozen still one night. Buffet was out long before we got to it and you could tell. That said one or two mains were nice the salmon and lasagna. The fish on Friday was bad. Plenty of places to eat, but not cheep, pizzeria lukewarm was a short walk out of the village and was very nice. Skiing is for beginners but was still enjoyed the skiing. Wind was an issue and the gondola was closed most of the week. Night skiing was also fun.
