Gielas Hotel

The Gielas Hotel, located in the deluxe wing of the Tunturi Hotel, is an excellent high-end base for your Arctic ski holiday. After a day spent carving through the snow or exploring the wilderness, there’s nothing quite like returning and relaxing in your own private, cosy space. Each room features all the essential amenities you'll need on your trip, such as a private sauna to soothe tired muscles and a drying closet to warm socks and mittens for the next morning. Each room also includes a balcony with resort views, free Wi-Fi, and coffee-making facilities to help you gear up for first lifts.

The hotel’s amenities are centred around post-ski relaxation - You can curl up by the fire with a rich hot chocolate to recount the day's runs, or head over to the Bar & Grill Pirtti for a laid-back vibe. If you’re still buzzing from the fresh Arctic air, the live entertainment frequently hosted during the winter season is a great way to cap off your night. It’s the perfect blend of rugged adventure and refined comfort, ensuring you’re fully recharged for another day on the slopes.
