"In May 2018, we held a ten-day training camp with KHL and NHL players at Saimaa Life & Light. I will note the ideal living conditions: the apartments are equipped with everything necessary for a full rest and recovery of players. The food in the village fully meets the standards that top-level players are used to. The Ice Palace, where the training took place, does not need comments: top competitions have already been held here and everything is organized at the highest level. I recommend this place for training camps!»

For several years now, the company Hockey is my Life holds hockey camps in Imatra, Finland. And the base for the accommodation of the Participants of the hockey camp is always the Saimaa Life Hotel. You can't find a better place! Everything here is designed for the convenience and comfort of the athlete.
Let's start with the fact that the Ice Palace, where hockey players train, is a 5-minute walk from the hotel ! On the first day of the training camp, the guys take the hockey equipment to the Palace, leave it in the lockers, and on the last day they take it away . This is very convenient for both hockey players and their attendants . And you can wash your underwear in your apartment.
Now about the living conditions. The interior of the apartment is simple, but tasteful, stylish and neat. Nothing superfluous, but at the same time there is everything you need. After all, what is the most important thing for an athlete?
Full sleep is important . It's rare to find beds in hotels where you really get enough sleep. This is exactly the case. The mattresses are very comfortable, the bed is soft , the pillows are comfortable.
A hearty meal is also important . All Participants of the hockey training camps and accompanying persons give the highest rating to the hotel's cuisine. Variety and freshness, the products are appetizing and eco-friendly.
And the athlete is also important for emotional relaxation. And again, the village of Saimaa Life hit the nail on the head. This is a beautiful quiet place, pristine nature, forest, lake, silence... And each apartment has a sauna where you can relax after training.
While athletes train, parents and accompanying people also have something to do... Cycling and hiking, fishing, swimming in Lake Saimaa in summer, cross –country and mountain skiing in winter, ice skating, water parks, rope town and much more.
In short, Saimaa Life is a great place for hockey training camps! It's nice to be in the village, it's quiet and peaceful here. Saimaa Life is cozy and somehow warm!
Many thanks to the hotel management for their cooperation, for the prompt solution of all issues, for their kindness and hospitality!
