There is a swimming pool at the hotel levetunturi spa which you can use for a fee.Hotel food at the k5 is great for adults but we found there was not a good choice for children or a separate childrens buffet.Immelmokit cabins are great as are the levi logs cabins.Really have not seen or been in any other accomodation in levi that was poor,they are all of good standard.Personally immelmokit cabins are my favourite due to the cabins sizes and the wooded areas.The k5 is the nearest hotel to the immelmokits.

I was reading about the plans they have in Levi (the Levi Hotel and Spa):

there will be 9 saunas and 17 pools (by the end of August 2010).

|||

I think it will be a shame if Levi becomes over developed.

|||

Why build 17 pools if most of the tour comapanies are pulling out of Finland, who is going to use them ?

|||

British tour operators are not the only customers in the world, you know.

|||

Why build 17 pools anyway.It%26#39;s only a small little town,surely that cant be right.

|||

If they are not careful they will spoil Levi terribly.

Looks like I%26#39;ll have to go to Sarriskelsaasuh or something like that BLUNY .

|||

Hope they dont spoil levi wally,although i have a feeling there will be a few more changes there by december this year.

It will be interesting to hear just how much though.

As John says British Tour Operators are not the only tour operators that go to Lapland, also only one Tour operator as pulled out and they only did two years in Lapland.

Seventeen pools does seem a little excessive but I still wouldn%26#39;t call Levi commercialised, when compared to other resorts outside if Finalnd/Lapland.

Back to the original question, I personally didn%26#39;t like the food in K5 at all, it just wasn%26#39;t to my taste.

I think that Finland does need to expand to be able to cater for the people that go there, I think that it is big enough to be able to cater for everyone but in doing so that does mean that some resorts have to expand whilst others will stay as they are, some people want swimming pools, clubs etc whilst others don%26#39;t and if Finland wants to remain as a tourist attraction then it%26#39;s going to have to cater for them and it%26#39;s doing that and in doing so, those lovely little places that we love are going to change but there will always be other little places for us to go to, it will still have the magic
