Laplands Hotel Hetta is in a great location right by a beautiful lake. It is a great stop-over if you are traveling through. The hotel offers a kind of good old fashioned 70´s vibe, even though it has clearly been refurbished at various times. It is a lovely resort hotel, with a great restaurant serving wonderful local produce. The staff are very friendly too.

My only complaint is that the water in the indoor swimming pool is too cold. I had looked forward to doing a bit of swimming while staying there, but had to abandon that idea. My husband wouldn't even go in, as it was so cold. We were a bit disappointed, as the poo was one of the reasons we had booked a place at this hotel.

We got to see the aurora just outside our door! The cabin was very large and spacious. Living room was huge - very suitable for families. Furnishing can be quite out-dated, but I'd rather call it retro / vintage :) Warm insides. Had a double door to keep out the cold.

We did not quite understand the instructions for the rooms so we took awhile to figure out that they were actually on the other side of the road from the reception building. The restaurant was closed just minutes before we reached (from a very long drive) and there was no other place that served food - so we did not have dinner that night. Sauna also closes quite early. But on hindsight, we missed dinner and sauna but saw the aurora so maybe that's good. Dining table and kitchen was quite small. There were no coffee/tea/sugar/creamer packets, so bring your own.

Nice lake view from the room. Very clean room, renovated (except the bathroom). Nice staff. We had a delicious dinner. Free parking and a cheap electric charger. Comfy beds and sofa. The hotel is surrounded by beautiful nature.

The bathroom wasn't renovated since it was build, it would deserve some love. Also, the lighting in the shower could be better - when you closed the shower door, it was very dark in there. We had to carry our suitcases down a staircase because there was no elevator. You can only use the swimming pool from 16.00, it would be nice if it was open in the morning too. The hotel is from 1984, so it felt a bit dated, though it has really good upkeep.

Breakfest was super! Restaurant good @ nordic price. Hotel clean atmosphere. We were only one day so could not enjoy the environment. We did a short walk (2km) to Jyppyrä hill. There was a perfect campfire hut with a great view on the like and surroundings.  

Small village not much to do.

On lake, nice for swimming, easy walking to national park and Sami museum

Not set up for every room to have lake view. It seemed rather empty, but we were not given a Lakeview room.

The breakfast was delicious, the equipment rental at the hotel was convenient, we also enjoyed the pool and sauna. The location close to the ski tracks was great and we appreciated having a spot to charge out electric car.

The pool could use a bit of renovation, and there should be wifi also in the vacation apartments separate from the main hotel building.

A wonderful location for our one night stop-over to Hammerfest.

The pool was a little too cold for comfort, but the sauna was nice.

Fabulous breakfast and evening meal. Spacious cabin with large fully equipped kitchen. Located by lake and forests, at one with nature. Free access to sauna and good sized pool is a bonus.

Beware mosquitos in the region. Wifi (internet) connectivity was below standard.

Good location and quiet. Ideal if you need a bed during a road trip. You can recharge your EV.

Carpet in restaurant needs a revamp. Indoor pool a bit too cold.

Very friendly staff and great food which 100% makes up for the partly dated facilities! It must be said though that all facilities and our room were in immaculate condition and extremely clean. The hotel is a great location to do all the available winter-activities!

Nothing to dislike about our experience!
