Snowhotel Family selected as one of Europe’s best workplaces

Great Place to Work has published its list of Europe’s best small and medium-sized workplaces for 2025, and Snowhotel Family is ranked 55th on the list. Only four companies from Finland made it onto the list.

The European list is based on a survey of more than 1.5 million employees. The list is based on responses from over 300,000 employees at companies that met strict eligibility criteria: the company must have 50–499 employees in Europe, Great Place To Work certification, and a ranking on at least one national list of best workplaces in Europe.

– This is so amazing! We are really proud, especially because it was our own staff who gave the responses that made us the 55th best workplace in Europe, say Snowhotel Family entrepreneurs Heidi and Ville Haavikko.

Snowhotel Family is known in Lapland as a tourism company that draws its strength from snow and ice. The award is a significant recognition not only of its corporate culture, but also of the appeal of the northern region. Lapland suffers from a labor shortage, and the local workforce alone is not enough to meet the growing demand for tourism.

– This kind of positive international visibility is very important to us, as it helps attract employees from abroad. Reliable recognition increases our credibility in the eyes of international job seekers, Heidi and Ville emphasize.

Snowhotel Family’s ranking among Europe’s best workplaces reinforces the message that investing in employee well-being, trust, and community spirit bears fruit and makes Lapland an even more attractive place to come and stay to work.
