Неплохой отель у самого подножия горы Nice hotel at the foot of the mountain

If you come to Kuusamo Ruka mainly and primarily for skiing, then you can’t imagine better: Mount Ruka, the main ski slopes, rental of excellent equipment for conquering them, instructors - everything is literally at the exit from the hotel. It is better to book rooms in the new building ("superior") - they are larger and more modern. If the main purpose of the trip is a fun celebration of the New Year or Christmas, excursions, sledding, dogs, reindeer, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, etc. , and intensive skiing is not included in the plans, then it is better to stay in "Kuusamo Tropics" ("Holiday Club Kuusamo"). There, the hotel is better, and breakfasts and dinners are much tastier, more varied and plentiful, and the landscapes are more beautiful. By the way, the rooms there are much better in the new building. However, I repeat, for lovers of skiing, the Rantasipi Rukahovi hotel is the best and very worthy choice.
