We wanted an apartment so we could come & go as we pleased and also to relax in the evening.We booked the apartment with Tui and were extremely pleased. We were a family of 3 and I’d say the accommodation would comfortably fit a family of 4 (2 adults 2 children). The bonus of the apartment was that it came with its own sauna which my husband used a lot. We had a nice living/dinning area where we did cook a couple of meals using the facilities provided. The main bedroom is compact but comfortable with good wardrobe space. The other bedroom is fairly small with bunk beds (the stairs are steep but have high sides so there’s no chance a little one could fall out). On booking it did say a 1 bedroom apartment but actually it is 2 separate bedrooms it’s just the one with the bunks is small. We also had a small balcony which was nice and a drying cupboard which was brilliant, the apartment was very well thought out & came with a fireplace.
The location was spot on, it was away from the town of Ruka by only 10 minutes walk (via the shortcut) and it backed onto the beautiful lake which was frozen and where we got a glimpse of the northern lights. It was the best of both worlds.
The apartment also left 2 sledges which we used everyday.
The hotel restaurant next door was also very nice.
Also the apartment is operated by a key code so you don’t need to worry about loosing keys just remember to take a photo so you don’t forget the code.
The only negative comment was that you had to make the beds when you arrived which was a pain especially after a long journey but other than that is was a perfect place to stay in a beautiful location. We’d definitely stay here again I’m just surprised this great place doesn’t have more reviews as it was fully booked. Definitely recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great apartments perfect location

We spent a long weekend at Rukatonttu early February. RukaTonttu is located only a five minute walk from the Ruka center with all restaurants and services. Peacefully located by a lake you can either stay in the hotel or in apartments. We had a very nice, clean and cosy hotel room in the basement with an entrance practically out on the lake. Outside you also have the possibility to swim in the lake around the year (yes it's cold). If you ski the nearest lift is only some 50 meters from the hotel and if Nordic skiing is of interest it can be done on the lake. We will definitely return. Worth mentioning is the very nice personnel managed by the very owner Matti.

Peaseful location close to everything!

We stayed in the smaller (43 sqm) apartment in RukaTonttu. The advertising states that it's suitable for a small family. This is to be believed. We were just two adults so the place was ok but it would not work for 4 or even 3 adults. One or two kids might be ok. 
That said, the apartment does hold everything - a sauna, two toilets, kitchen area, dinner table and a small couch plus two bedrooms (one of which only fits a bunk bed). There's also a drying cabinet and outdoor storage for skis and a balcony.
A big big minus is the non-existent soundproofing. You can hear everything from above, below and next door and this can be a bit embarrassing or downright annoying (think barking dogs).
But the location is unbeatable, you can hop onto your skis literally from outside your door and go downhill or crosscountry. The Ruka village is 500 metres away (escalators going up) with all its services.
The RukaTonttu customer service is very good and friendly.

Compact and practical

Helsinki, Uusimaa

January 2016.
We stayed in the hotel but transferred to an apartment.  

HOTEL   -  is very comfortable.  Twin beds. Hairdryer. TV. It has a drying cupboard for damp clothing.   Under floor heating in the shower room is extremely nice.  There was no shower gel or shampoo.  Only criticism is that the room was too hot.  We had to request kettle as there was not one in the room.

APARTMENT  -  The apartment had two twinned bedrooms.  The lobby area has a coat cupboard and there is also a drying cupboard too.  The shower room has under floor heating, a toilet and sauna.  There was also a separate toilet.  Table and chairs that seat six.  Didn't use the log fire as, again, the apartment was too hot.  Would say that if the top damper of the log burner (on the wall) is pulled out... it lets in a tremendous draught.  All the apartments appear to have a balcony and there is a launderette in the basement.   Everything you need for self catering is there.  

RESTAURANT  -  Breakfast was included in our package.  Usual fare on offer, cereal, hot and cold food together with tea/coffee/squash.  Lunch time snacks available which is fresh cooked and hot.  Had two evening meals one of which Matti prepared planked smoked fish... really tasty !

LOCATION  -  Beautiful location in Winter and would imagine it to be in Summer also.  Set on a vast lake surrounded by fir streets.  Ski Slopes can be seen from the hotel/apartment and are lit in the evening.  

It is about a 450m uphill walk to the escalator that takes you up the hill into Ruka Village.  However, on the occasions I used it.. it didn't work and had to walk up the 75 steps!  We were told that you have to push a button and it would start but the button is not in an obvious place.  It brings to out to a car park and the village is not far from that.   You have to have a reasonable amount of fitness to walk into Ruka.

RUKA VILLAGE

Plenty of bars/restaurants/shops/supermarkets etc.  

All in all... a pleasant trouble free vacation.  Thank you to Matti and his team... professional and very friendly.
