Davvi Arctic Star




Davvi Arctic Star is a traditional hotel with an unpretentious charm. Located just steps from Sweden’s northernmost church and a short stroll across the river into Finland, it's perfect for nature lovers and explorers alike. The 27 rambling rooms offer Scandinavian simplicity and the open-plan bar and dining area is the heart of the hotel. A warm, sociable atmosphere here brings guests together after a day of snowmobiling, husky rides or Northern Lights hunting.

Davvi Arctic Star keeps things simple and cosy, with two styles of rooms inspired by Scandinavian living. Both options provide all the essentials for a comfortable stay, including en-suite facilities and tea and coffee amenities, while reflecting Swedish traditions in their names and design. Whether you prefer the balanced comfort of a Lagom Room or the extra space of a Fika Room, each offers a warm and welcoming base for your Lapland holiday.

The hotel offers everything essential for a comfortable stay: a cosy open-plan bar and dining area, free Wi‑Fi, a small library lounge, and ski storage. The surroundings are peaceful, with walking access to the Finnish border and the local museum. Guests enjoy hearty full-board meals and local hospitality in a warm, communal setting. It’s a relaxed base for outdoor adventures, not a luxury spa retreat.

Tucked just outside Karesuando village, Davvi Arctic Star overlooks the Muonio River and nearby hills. Key local sights—a wooden church, museum and the Finnish border crossing—are all in walking distance. The hotel's remote location makes it a great base for Northern Lights excursions and outdoor adventures across the Arctic tundra.
