Top Vanaranta Hotel Reviews

Lapland Hotels Oulu

Lapland Hotels Oulu

8/10 Good

"The hotel is extremely large but well located. We could walk everywhere we wanted to go. The breakfasts were fantastic. There was a huge selection and the food was exceptionally tasty. Dinner at the hotel restaurant was also good but various groups eating there made it too noisy. Our room was adequate but the mirror attached to the wall in our bathrooms did not work. Parking was available but we had to pay for it. This hotel was perfectly acceptable but it was not my favourite. I prefer smaller hotels with more charm."

Original Sokos Hotel Arina

Original Sokos Hotel Arina

10/10 Excellent

"What a truly lovely hotel right in the heart of Oulu! It feels genuinely high‑end, and honestly much nicer (and cheaper) than the Lapland Hotel, for example. Everything about it is so practical, spotless, and completely hassle‑free. The amenities are fantastic, and the breakfast included in the price is absolutely wonderful. I’d highly recommend this place to other travellers — it really exceeded my expectations."

Scandic Oulu City

Scandic Oulu City

8/10 Good

"The breakfast was great, lots of choice, a gluten free area and all food labelled well. The room was clean. It's in a great location. We didn't get the Queen bed we were expecting and the extractor fan in the bathroom didn't work. The shower was amazing though. Bed was comfy with decent pillows. We did struggle with the air con, very dry and luckily we had a balcony so could leave the door slightly open which helped a lot. The hotel staff were lovely, the hotel was absolutely fine. "

GreenStar Hotel Oulu

GreenStar Hotel Oulu

10/10 Excellent

"GreenStar Hotel, Oulu was centrally based in downtown Oulu. The shopping center Valkea was just around the corner which had many excellent stores, restaurant's and grocery store where you can buy all necessary products for yourself and family members. The hotel room was very good and the bed was excellent. The breakfast was very good because it had variety of everything you need. When I come the next time I will reserve a room at GreenStar Hotel. The price was reasonable for the service. GreenStar is located close to the Railway Station. "
