Accommodation in Ylläs: where to stay

Looking for accommodation in Ylläs?

We live in Ylläs so we can recommend you our reliable local accommodation partners: small, quiet and close to our office in Ylläsjärvi village, far from the big hotel chains.

Ylläs is a year-round destination with downhill slopes, more than 300 km of cross-country ski trails, husky and reindeer adventures and snowmobile safaris. Ylläsjärvi village sits on the lake shore, away from the busy slopes, which makes it a calm base and a good spot for northern lights evenings.

Book directly with each place below. Once your bed is sorted, have a look at our WINTER EXPERIENCES and sign up for the Northern Light Alert Ylläs, so you know when the aurora is out.
