At Roiske, you stay in a unique glass-roof Aurora Hut by the river, combining peaceful nature with easy access to Rovaniemi. In winter, enjoy Northern Lights, sauna, ice swimming, and our Aurora alert system. In summer, experience bright nights, riverside relaxation, and water activities. Located just 3.5 km from the city center, 4.5 km from the airport, and 4 km from Santa Claus Village.

The space
Welcome to Roiske Aurora Hut, a unique glass-roof stay by the river in Rovaniemi, where Arctic nature, peaceful surroundings, and year-round experiences come together.

This is not just a place to sleep. It is a stay designed for guests who want to experience Lapland in a more memorable way. From your bed, you can look up through the glass roof and follow the northern sky above you. In winter, the setting becomes especially magical when the dark season, snow-covered landscape, sauna, and ice swimming create a true Arctic atmosphere. To make the most of the Northern Lights season, the stay also includes our exclusive Aurora Alert system, designed to wake you when the auroras appear.

Roiske offers a rare combination of nature and accessibility. Although you stay in a calm riverside setting, you are still close to everything important in Rovaniemi. The city center is only 3.5 km away, Rovaniemi Airport 4.5 km, and Santa Claus Village 4 km. This makes it easy to enjoy a peaceful stay without feeling isolated.

Winter at Roiske is about slowing down and enjoying the essentials of Lapland: northern skies, sauna heat, fresh air, icy water, and quiet surroundings by the river. Summer brings a completely different atmosphere. During the bright season, the area transforms into Kesätekemisen keskus Roiske, where the surroundings come alive with water activities, long evenings, and riverside summer energy. On the Roiske area, guests can also find services and activities such as SUP boards, boats, a floating water park, restaurant services, and more, available separately during the summer season.

The Aurora Hut is ideal for couples or travelers looking for a stay that feels more special than ordinary accommodation. The focus is on atmosphere, location, and experience: the feeling of being close to nature while still having Rovaniemi’s main attractions within easy reach.

If you are looking for a stay that combines Lapland’s natural beauty, a distinctive setting, and the chance to experience both winter magic and summer charm in one place, Roiske Aurora Hut offers exactly that.
