    The room was clean, had all the amenities we needed, and even had a fan which was great. The outdoor meals were a lovely touch and the free parking was convenient. The common bathroom was totally clean and we felt comfortable using it. The hosts were incredibly friendly and made us feel right at home. They were involved in making our stay enjoyable and provided lots of thoughtful details. We would definitely come back here anytime and highly recommend Villa Virpi to others!

    It felt like being home, nothing was too much trouble.

    the stay at Villa Virpi in Rovaniemi was simply perfect - a beautiful Finnish house with a lovely family and a super cute dog. The room was clean and comfortable, and we enjoyed the short walk to the city center through the snowy streets. We would definitely come back!

    Shower was too narrow.

    We had an amazing experience staying at Villa Virpi in Rovaniemi. the host, Risto, was extremely kind and made us feel very welcome. He was always available to answer any questions and even offered transfers to the airport and city center. the double room we stayed in was well-lit and spacious, with Scandinavian decor. It had all the necessary amenities, including a fridge, kettle, and microwave. the shared facilities, such as the shower and toilet, were conveniently located on the same floor. the open plan kitchen downstairs was also available to use. We highly recommend Villa Virpi for its comfortable location, friendly host, and cozy atmosphere.

    Nothing all good! 😊

    Loved the airport shuttle, garden, and terrace at Villa Virpi. Free WiFi was a nice touch too.

    Who needs TV in the room? Simply staring at construction material and hearing everything happening next door was entertainment enough.

    A garden where I can pretend to enjoy nature, free WiFi to post my fancy pictures, and a terrace to sip my tea while pretending to care about the scenery.

    What a shame, no butler at my beck and call. How do they expect me to survive without one?

    We loved the cozy atmosphere and the helpful hosts. The private villa upgrade was worth it. The kitchen was well-equipped and there were some extra groceries available. The location was quiet and close enough to walk to the city center. The driveway had ample parking space.

    Felt right at home, nothing was too much trouble.

    The shared kitchen was a game-changer! It felt like having my own personal chef, but instead of a chef, it was just me clumsily whipping up meals. It was like Nigella Lawson meets Mr. Bean.

    Lack of room signs.

    The fully-equipped kitchen at Villa Virpi is a game-changer! It's like having Gordon Ramsay's kitchen at your disposal.if he also took care of the dishes and grocery shopping. I felt like a master chef whipping up delicious meals every day.
