The small village of Muonio is located on the banks of Muonio River, in north western
Lapland close to the Swedish border. Its northerly, isolated location makes it the ideal
place to experience and appreciate nature whatever the season.
Harriniva is a unique family run hotel. Your hosts, Kopi
and Maria, and their friendly team will welcome you to
their magical winter and summer wonderland where
they encourage guests to relax away from the stresses
of everyday life and to enjoy the surrounding nature.
The hotel has been lovingly built using local wood
and stone to give it a warm and rustic feel with
traditional and cosy accommodation with private
facilities.
The hub of the hotel is the restaurant and bar
where you can relax at the end of an exciting day,
swapping stories over a hearty meal and a drink.
Harriniva is also home to one of Europe’s largest
husky farms which of course you will have a chance
to visit during your stay, but far enough away not to
affect your well deserved nights rest.

Each winter the hotel builds a wonderful igloo on the
banks of the Muonio River close to the hotel so guests
can make their visit to Harriniva even more
memorable. At the centre of the large igloo is a
chamber with ice table and chairs and leading off this
are several bed chambers with double beds made of
snow. Even in the coldest conditions the igloo
temperature remains moderate especially when you
are snuggled onto a layer of soft reindeer skins, in an
excellent sleeping bag and have a hot drink.
