Northern Lights Village Levi
     
 

Located in the far north of Finland, 16km away from the centre of Levi and close to the ski resort (approx. 14km), the Northern Lights Village sits tucked away in its own piece of wilderness. 

With 40 Aurora Cabins, you’ll have the brilliant opportunity to view the Northern Lights right from your bed. Each cabin comes equipped with a half-glass roof with the twin or double beds situated underneath. This is one of the few places in the world where you’ll prefer a sleepless night! 

All cabins are in walking distance of the restaurant which serves local, Lappish delicacies. 

Facilities

  • The village restaurant takes inspiration from the traditional wooden Finnish tipis with Lappish décor. 
  • Using flavours from Lapland and the Barents Sea regions, the restaurant serves local food and special delicacies. Breakfast is a buffet of continental options and some hot dishes. Evening meals are a buffet with starters of soups and salad, and then a choice of local meat or fish will follow. Dietary requirements are all well-catered for as long as we are informed at the time of booking.
  • All activities start from The Northern Lights Village (except the husky safaris and art gallery) to make your holiday as easy as possible. 

Aurora Cabin

All Aurora Cabins face north and out into the wilderness to increase your chances of seeing the Northern Lights through the half-glass roof. The windows are also laser heated to melt the snow so that you have clear views at all times.

Inside, you’ll find twin beds which can be made into a double and there is also a sofa bed (suitable for an additional adult or two children). There is a shower room, toilet and luggage storage area. You also have tea and coffee making facilities, a hairdryer, electric fireplace and unlimited Wi-Fi.

A few housekeeping notes we always like guests to be aware of – cabins are not cleaned between arrival and departure unless requested from reception. Additionally, towels can be exchanged at reception if required. The hot water is plentiful, but not unlimited (10-15 minutes per half hour), so please bear this in mind.

Aurora Suite

These stunning Aurora Suites are a very popular option for families. The spacious 44m2 size means that alongside the double bed under the spectacular laser-heated glass roof, there is space for 3 extra guests (2 on a sofa bed and 1 on an extra bed).

We however would not recommend more than 4 adults in one of the suites as it would be rather too cosy. The suites have a shower room and separate WC as well as their very own private sauna. An electric fireplace adds additional ambiance. You also have tea and coffee-making facilities, a hairdryer, minibar and unlimited WiFi.
