スカンディック ルカホヴィ(Scandic Rukahovi)

Came to this hotel on 30/12. Service are great, right next to Ruka Ski.

Stayed in the apartments during Easter. The location is great near the main center. Parking is tricky and the road to drive is very narrow. The apartment is quiet good with an amazing view. The fan and stove didn't work well and kitchen equipment are not good. When we arrived in the room we notice that it was not well cleaned (toilet was not flushed and there was dust and hair on the floor). WiFi didn't also work during whole of the time of over stay. With small efforts these apartments would get a much better review.

Yet again nice family trip to Ruka and several nights stay in Scandic Rukahovi. We stayed in Junior Suite which was just perfect for our young family of four. Super nice staff anf great, tasty breakfast. Especially oat porridge, 10+ . You can walk straight to slopes from the hotel, separate storage room for equipments. Nice lobby area. Rooms a bit outdated but apparently some of the rooms are renovated. Ours was not but it didnt bother us. Will definetely come back!

We made a short stay (couple of nights) at the ski resort. Enjoyed both the cross country and downhill slopes very much and had overall a good time. The apartment was on a good location, near to all services.

I didn't think too much of it. The cleaning level wasn't the best either, there were visible stains of coffee (or some other dark beverage) on the table and also on the floor and wall by the bed. A day later I got down with a stomach flu that included projectile vomiting and some serious diarrhea. Wonder what was the smell in the room they had had to leave them windows open for...

Nice hotel in beautiful surroundings. You can find free parking behind the hotel. Friendly receptionist. We had booked a superior room. The room was really big with separate bedroom and a living room with sofa beds for the kids. Huge balcony, mini bar, coffee and tea. Bathrobes in the room. We had a nice dinner in the restaurant, the waiter was very kind. The bread and croissants for breakfast was not so good and under Scandic standard, but overall was everything very good.

This is a great place to stay in Ruka. The location can't be beaten - right in the middle of Ruka Village and literally a few yards from the Gondola and ski hire shops. We've stayed here three times now and picked the superior rooms to get access to the balcony, as the views on to the skiing area are spectacular. The rooms are comfortable and large, with a sizeable modern bathroom, a drying cabinet for ski gear, and ample desk and wardrobe space. The "double" rooms are actually twins with two smaller beds pushed together, in the European style. The rooms are well-heated, even when it's well below zero outside, and we made use of the screened vents and the balcony door to moderate the temperature. There's a TV, good quality Wifi and a Chromecast in the room, along with the usual things like a kettle and tea and coffee. Although we didn't use them, there are Sauna facilities. Breakfast is wonderful, a great mix of Finnish and international breakfast food, served in a separate area at the back of the hotel. There's a great restaurant and bar at the front of the hotel that serves amazing local dishes at a cost. We usually book the half-board option, and the hotel has clearly listened to feedback, as the half-board option is now served in the rear of the hotel, in the same area as the breakfast. The quality of the food has markedly improved since last year, and even though it's cooked to a budget, we've eaten some great choices there this week with a local flavour - reindeer salad, arctic char, pickled vendace, alongside some more conventional nuggets, fries, meatballs and meatloaf that fussy kids would like. The hotel has clearly made a lot of effort on the half-board menu, adding in much more local food, desserts and choice, which is great to see. The staff are great - courteous and really helpful. They can't do enough for you. The rooms are kept spotless and clean, as are the interior areas. We were allocated a ski locker behind reception. which is very handy for the start and end of the day. The location cannot be beaten. Ruka is split between the Village and the Valley, with the majority of shops, eating and entertainment in the Village. The Scandic is right in the middle of everything and a few steps away from the ski bus, heated parking, gondola, ski facilities, outdoor excursions, shops, cafes, bars, supermarket and several restaurants at various budget levels. The majority of the skiing is on the Valley side, but we definitely prefer the Village, and love the Scandic.

Good hotel in the very centre of Ruka village. Room was spacious and bed was good. Room was clean. Service was polite. Breakfast was very nice. Hotel restaurant food was well prepared and served with a smile. Meeting services was very good. Overall this was a good visit!

Absolutely lovely. Great hotel, great food, loads of facilities for skiers, including secure ski and board storage, and a warming cabinet for your boots and clothes in your room. Staff were so helpful and friendly. I’d definitely go there again. Cracking views from our room too.
