If you want to make sure that Father Christmas visits you during Christmas time, you should spend it in Lapland. Inari is in the heart of Lapland, full of magical atmosphere throughout the year. Stay either in the centre of Inari in Hotel Inari, which is newly renovated, cozy place right next to the main sights and lake Inari or in Hostel Ahopää, which is part of the fell centre Kiilopää, situated next to a National Park. There is an international airport in Ivalo, less than an hour’s drive from both of the hostels.
