Located in the Arctic Circle of Finalnd, Hotel Kakslauttanen can be found in the Saariselkä fell area amidst beautiful Lapland scenery in the vicinity of the Urho Kekkonen National Park. In the winter, the Igloo Village of Kakslauttaner offers a variety of unique accommodations, the most stunning of which are the 20 glass igloo rooms available for rent.

The glass igloos provides a one-of-a-kind opportunity to admire the northern lights and millions of stars of the crystal clear Lapp sky in a comfortable room temperature. Based on a groundbreaking idea and years of research and development, glass igloos are a marvel of modern technology. Built from a special thermal glass the temperature inside the igloo always stays at a normal level. It also prevents the glass from not getting white frosted, hence keeping the view clear even when the temperature outside drops to under -30°C. Every igloo is equipped with a toilet and luxury beds. On every evening a hot sauna and a refreshing ice hole are waiting for you.
