The tree rooms are suspended 4-10 metres above the ground and are accessible by ramp, bridge, or electric stairs. Upon checking in at The Guesthouse, it’s a five-minute walk to Treehotel.

Breakfast, lunch and dinner is served in our Treehotel Guesthouse restaurant.

All of the Treehotel tree rooms have: Incinerating toilet, electricity, underfloor heating, air conditioning, coffee maker and water kettle, fresh drinking water, refrigerators, WiFi, our sustainable Rukkamoika water system with 3 litres of water for washing your hands. Dragonfly and The 7th Room also have their own showers.

The Mirrorcube is an exciting hide-out among the trees, camouflaged by mirrored walls reflecting their surroundings.

The base consists of an aluminum frame around the tree trunk and the walls are covered with reflective glass.

The Bird’s nest is built on the contrasts between the outside and inside.

The treeroom’s exterior is nothing but a gigantic bird’s nest. It gives a camouflage so you quickly disappear and become part of the surroundings.

The Cabin. This treeroom’s location was based on the idea of creating a platform high up on a sharp hillside overlooking the Lule River valley.

You can reach the hut from here via a horizontal bridge among the trees. At the front of the bridge is a large wooden deck.

7th room. As you near the seventh room from below and look up at the sky, the entire underside of the building is covered by a life size photograph of the treetops as they looked before the room was put in place.

This clever camouflage piques one’s curiosity. What is hiding up there?

The Ufo. While working on the Bird’s Nest, which is largely in harmony with its surroundings, the idea of creating an entirely different environment was born.

Dragonfly. With its 52 square metres and 22 metric tonnes, the Dragonfly is without a doubt our biggest room.

Unique in many ways, this room can function both as a conference space as well as private suite.

The Blue Cone is based on simplicity and accessibility, both in terms of material and design.

The room is a traditional wooden structure with three foundations in the ground to give a sense of height and lightness, but also stability.
