If you celebrate Christmas, surely, your family must have told you stories of Santa Claus when you were younger. And you might even be passing down the same stories to your own children. What if we told you the stories are real? Well, at least they’re real in Rovaniemi, a city in the region of Lapland, Finland, better known as the Official Hometown of Santa Claus.
However, Rovaniemi is not just home to Santa Claus, but a home to the Arctic TreeHouse Hotel, which APERTUS Aviation has partnered with. This hotel is sure to take you on an unforgettable Christmas adventure, as though you’re on board Polar Express.
The hotel is part of the umbrella brand, Santa Park Arctic World. So you’ll be enjoying not just your exquisite suite but also an entire Christmas Wonderland. Let us walk you through your stay from the moment you arrive in Rovaniemi.
At the Rovaniemi Airport, expect to be welcomed by an adorable Elf who has been preparing for Christmas all year around!
Fun Fact: One time, they even sent an Elf to the UK to accompany and entertain a family on their trip to Rovaniemi in their private jet!
Once you arrive at the Arctic TreeHouse, you can settle into your beautiful ArcticScene Executive Suite – a nest designed with a Finnish touch as well as natural materials for the ultimate luxury and comfort. You’d be greeted by unobstructed magnificent views of nature outside.
The panoramic views from the windows provide impressive spectacles of the forest and Arctic skies: the Northern Lights and Midnight Sun can be admired from the comfort of your bed. The suite has its own wellness area where you can settle down in a sauna, opened up towards the Northern sky. Imagine gazing into the sky, letting the moonlight wash all over you while you enjoy the smoothing steam that relaxes your muscles and mind.
