Kemijärvi

Academy Hotel

A quiet lakeside hotel in Finland's northernmost town.

About this place

Comfortable rooms in Kemijärvi, a calmer Lapland base for travellers seeking lake views, forest trails and unhurried mornings.

Kemijärvi is Finland's northernmost town and one of its best-kept secrets, a lakeside community ninety kilometres east of Rovaniemi, framed by Pyhä-Luosto fells. Academy Hotel sits a short walk from the lake shore and town centre, with rooms designed for travellers who prefer their Lapland slow and uncrowded.

The area is a haven for cross-country skiing in winter, paddling and berry-picking in summer, and serious Northern Lights hunting through the dark months. The hotel runs as a small operation, friendly reception hours, breakfast served simply, and direct rail and bus links back to Rovaniemi when you want to explore further.
