Ylläs Saaga Spa Hotel, Yllas, Finland / Lapland

The Ylläs Saaga Hotel is a modern hotel located beside the Lappish fells - it's right in the centre of the Ylläsjärvi side of the fell, next to the ski lifts, ski school and ski hire shop. The cosy rooms are furnished to a high standard, and have everything you need for a week in Lapland, plus many of our rooms have views over the fell.
