Santa Claus in Finnish Lapland and Northern Finland

Hotel Jeris

 

Ideal for Single Parent Families / Single adult parties

Hotel Jeris benefits from an idyllic setting, deep in the forest on the shores of Lake Jerisjarvi, nestled next to a national park.

 

The hotel has 24 twin / triple rooms or guests may choose to stay in the nearby individually furnished cabins that are set in the forest.

 

Enjoy meals in the hotels panoramic restaurant with stunning lake, forest and fell views or just unwind with drinks in front of an open fire or in the hotels bar.

 

After a day of exciting activities in the surrounding nature where better to relax than in the hotels lakeside spa. Rest in one of the hot spa pools, warm in a sauna or if feeling brave attempt a dip in the lake ice pool!

 

Jeris is ideal for those wishing to take part in activities, all conveniently close to the hotel, but also wanting some quality family time whether that be playing in the snow in the beautiful surroundings or curled up in front of an open fire playing games in a private cabin.
