Stayed in a rustic cabin in the woods but beds comfy and staff on site very helpful - restaurant good

We had an amazing time at Tankavaara in December 2023. Firstly the area in winter is absolutely stunning. Secondly the staff were fantastic in the bar area and guides and driver. Shout out to both Kimmos!
We chose to stay in the Sompiotalo Deluxe apartment which was a 10 minute (very enjoyable) walk from the reception. It is a great apartment. In terms of activities we did the northern lights snowmobile tour with Tankavaara (Kimmo 2) which was AMAZING. We also did the Lappish Dinner meal in the traditional Kota and indoor winter gold panning with Kimmo 2. The good museum is also surprisingly really good. We booked husky and reindeer safaris ourselves from Tankavaara recommendations. Absolutely fantastic time.

Clean room looks like renewed and kind staffs.

Beautiful hiking trails nearby and best place to stay in Tankavara.
Value for the money and comfortable stay. Staff was really helpful and they provide all the hiking trail maps and easy to rent equipments.

Breathtaking view within few meters

I had visited the place before, this year I spent 3 nights in a cabin of the Gold village (before and after a multiday hike in the area). The cabins are cozy and all gold digger style and just beautiful. Toilet, shower and kitchen are in a separate common building. Depending on which cabin you get, that building will be more or less close. Cabins have nice wooden bunk beds, bed linen, a table, chairs, a fireplace/chimney, chopped wood some shelves. 
Check-in is in the nearby restaurant, which is also a cozy place with good food and very friendly staff. 
There are several old buildings and some tiny shops in the Gold Village, you also have the possibility to learn gold panning. The international gold museum is also within walking distance.
There's just no supermarkt in the area (the closest grocery store is in Vuotso).
Free wifi works close to the reception/restaurant only, not in the cabins etc.

Touristic, but stylish place to stay in Tankavaara

I came here for a meditation retreat and felt in love with the place, the staff and the environment 
This is a magical place with amazing trails to explore the beautiful nature and super nice food 
I will definitely come back with the family go this dreamed land

Meditation retreat and nature 

Cozy place for travel. good location to see aurora. highly recommend for all traveler

cozy place in finland

Intersting place. You can try gold panning here. Has a long history and different kind a place than you see anywhere else. Went to the restaurant for a burger. It was made out of reindeer! They also had their own beer. It's next to national park so if you stay here you can easily go for hiking there.

Nice food!

This is at 31 Tankavaaranite close to the Gold Prospector Museum at 11 Tankavaarantie. This  has accomodation in authentic wilderness  cabins that reflect the simple living of the gold prospectors,  and more modern apartments. There is also a Old Gold Prospector restaurant.

Great to be in cabins in nowhere in middle of Finnish snowy winter. In summer probably a little tacky next to fake Gold Mine town. Bathrooms are communal and have ventilation and plumbing issues. Food is excellent, prices are great.
