“This hotel is wonderful! They provided a wide range of food for breakfast and the kitchen utensils were of premium quality. You can simply buy food and cook yourself inside the room. The room was spacious and the staff was very helpful. Everything there was excellent! I definitely recommend this hotel to others and would stay there if I come to Rovaniemi again!”
“The hotel was situated on top of the hill, and we really loved the landscape around the hotel. A lot of trees and a lot of snow with few people. But there were no nearby bus stops, so transportation was quite inconvenient. Taxi to the city centre for 6 people was 46Euros. But since we expected this when we booked this hotel, we have booked tour with hotel pick up most of the time, so it was not that big of a problem for us.
Staff were friendly, food at the restaurant was good.
Room was small……
“No designed parking area in front of the chalet, one night someone parked in front of our chalet and we had to park further away and walk back under the snow. Some windows and balcony doors do not come with curtains or blinds (or have a big gap), quite insecure about that. The staff are funny and helpful. Overall is good. Laundry machine - 10 EUR for 2 hours. ”
“I stayed here for just one night, and the power tripped twice. I had to move a chair to reach the breaker box and reset the switch both times. Also, the front desk said their sauna was great, but when I went to the women’s changing room, the light wouldn’t turn on at all. The location is great though ”
“Pros:
I can pay and have breakfast buffet in the hotel
Room is clean & quiet
Staff member is helpful when I asking the traffic to Santa Claus Village & the airport
Cons:
The sauna room opening duration is short so I can't enjoy sauna in Finland
My room is at 1st floor and I need take my suitcase to walk for 1 storey of floor. No lift.
Notes:
The hotel is small and consist of 2 (or few?) buildings. I need to leave main building and walk for 10 seconds to next building for my room. There is……
“You need to get your room key in Santa's Hotel which is 800 meters away, but I didn't see any note when I was booking this hotel. Try to imagine that you need to walk 1.6 kilometers on a frozen and slippery ground as a round trip to get your key under -10 degrees. Fortunately I am the one who has own vehicle to get there. ”
“Perfect house, perfect location, perfect hotel restaurant! Just 5 minutes walk to Santa Claus village. All parts in the house are in perfect condition, especially there’s private sauna in each house, an enjoyable stay.
Also, I sent the massage to celebrate my lover’s birthday at the very last minute and the hotel did tried their best to help with the arrangement.
The hotel restaurant is totally underrated and it only got 4.6 in Google. However, after having dinner in surrounding restaurant with……

Room was small but comfortable and clean. Good to have a private sauna in the room, we enjoyed that :)
It was right next to a ski resort, so good for people who like to ski as well."
