Location is great. Behind the hotel is the river with beautiful views, in front is a bus stop to Santa Claus village. Multiple restaurants and stores around and close to city center. It's just that we refused cleaning but housekeeper came anyway while we were out.

Swimming pool was freezing (too cold to be useable) and areas of the hotel were worn/in need of renovation. Main single beds in room were very comfortable, but sofa bed was awful and has left me with a very painful back. That said, staff were friendly, location was good and breakfast was good.

Staff are very welcoming and friendly. Restaurant's dinner was delicious! though service was very slow, I waited 40 minutes for my order to get to my table (only 1 person at my table). The room was spacious and comfortable, the view was pretty, but the cleaning was superficial. I found hair and small paper and plastic residues from previous guests. The location is perfect and it was an overall pleasant experience (except for the cleaning, definitely an area of improvement).

Fabulous stay for a family of 4, the hotel is ideally located and has all the facilities that we needed. The breakfast was included and was delicious with plenty of choice. The room was large for a family of 4 and the kids loved the bunk beds. It was quiet and had a beautiful view of the river. I would highly recommend this hotel

Central location

Hotel was ok for what we needed and very centrally located to centre. Pool was freezing, hence I dipped a toe and came out…quiet as people don’t stay in long. tea/coffee in room never replenished. Breakfast was good and plenty to choose from. Price reflects the season

Centrum close hotel, need and upgrade

Sadly we got a room with half windows, so there was just a small window high up and no view at all. And our room was right next to the cleaning staff office, so it was noicy. Not possible to get relaxed or feel comfortable. Very few parking spots at the hotel. Breakfast was good. Staff at the reception was very service minded and friendly.

Very overcrowded, understaffed and all around poorly maintained. We were checked in late(4pm) after arriving early and spending the day out. Breakfast was poor and overcrowded. Room was never cleaned despite us asking for it. Very bad service levels - after paying 400 euros a night for a basic room.

So disappointed to end a super trip to Lapland here. Swimming pool was so cold we couldn’t enjoy it. Room didn’t look like any of the pictures!! Tired hotel with frustrating lifts. No kettle or facility in room, minibar warm, tv didn’t work nor comms in room. Felt completely ripped off partying £320 for one night.

My family arrived at the hotel around 1pm. I asked if possible to check in earlier. I was told the room was not ready. We waited patiently and I went back to the reception to check whether the room might be ready around 2:45pm. The receptionist first said she was not supposed to answer my question as the standard checkin time was 3pm. When I insisted she checked again, she questioned my nationality. I requested to talk to a manager and complained about my experience. The manager said it was their standard procedure to ask about my nationality before checking the room availability. We finally checked in at 3:20pm. The first thing my son found near his bad was a pair of used underwear. The room is tiny. There is nothing except for 3 single beds. I will definitely not be staying at this hotel in the future. The hotel staff do not respect the guests and there is 0 service. You definitely don’t want to see other people’s underwear in the room. Our family vacation in Finland was still a memorable one except for the terrible experience at this hotel.
