Arctic Lighthouse Hotel / Luotsihotelli

Arctic Lighthouse Hotel is located on Hailuoto, the largest island in the Gulf of Bothnia. Nestled at the foot of a former lighthouse, the truly unique and utterly fascinating hotel once served as a maritime pilot station and offers exceptional and expansive sea views across the gulf. Thanks to its truly one-of-a-kind natural setting, Hailuoto island has achieved iconic status in Finland. Hailuoto is the third largest Finnish sea island and the only one in the Bay of Bothnia that remains permanently inhabited despite the absence of year-round road access. During the summer season, Hailuoto is connected to the main island by a free twice-hourly ferry service, while in winter it is connected by an ice road. The hotel is a half-hour drive away from the ferry terminal. The distance to Oulu is 62 km and the journey takes approximately one hour. All rooms are equipped with a widescreen TV, shower room and complimentary Wi-Fi. Some rooms benefit from a lounge area and a balcony with sea views. The hotel also has a reception area, bar, sauna and activity rooms. A natural heritage exhibition is also on display at the hotel. A guest marina is located immediately adjacent to the hotel, complete with a service building, waste disposal area and sauna facilities. A fully operational pilot boat marina is located next to the guest marina.
