Your Perfect Room

✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026

Before you check in to SkyView Igloo Resort, here's what to know about choosing the right room.

Best rooms to request

Rooms on higher floors (4-6) are recommended for a quieter stay, as they are further away from the potential street noise on the lower floors. Additionally, rooms on the 4th floor or above may have a better view of the surrounding landscape.

⚠️

Rooms to avoid

Rooms on the ground floor or the floors adjacent to the service entrance (likely 1 and 2) might experience noise from staff and service vehicles entering and exiting the hotel.

🪟

Best views

Guests on the higher floors (4-6) can enjoy views of the surrounding forest or, if the hotel has a northern orientation, a glimpse of the Arctic landscape.

😴

Quietest floors

Fifth and sixth floors are likely to be the quietest due to their higher elevation and distance from the lower floors.

🔊 Noise notes

Street noise is possible in rooms facing the main road, especially during peak hours. However, the hotel's location in Rovaniemi's urban area means that noise levels are generally manageable.

Insider tips

Guests can request a room with a mini-fridge to store snacks and refreshments, which may be beneficial for a longer stay in the area. It's a good idea to check-in early to secure a room on a higher floor, as availability may be limited, especially during peak winter season.

How to request your preferred room:
  1. Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
  2. Add a note in your booking comments field
  3. Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available
