Scandic Rovaniemi City

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely brilliant breakfast"

HAAWE 1933 - Boutique Apart Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"If I could give it 6/5 stars then that says it all."

Hotel Aakenus

8/10 Good

"Förmånligt boende 400 m från centrum, 250 m från köpcentrum. Bra med parkering, bra bastu och skön säng. Det negativa var badrummet där duschen inte hade något skydd så vattnet flöt runt hela utrymmet och man måste lägga handduken på golvet för att vistas "torrskodd" där. Frukosten i normal/enklare format."

Hostel Café Koti

10/10 Excellent

"Nice staff, good location, place was clean, just needed the shower and toilet to be separated better other than a curtain."

Polar Nook Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Very central to the city. Quiet room. Very clean. Had a small issue with aircon that was fixed immediately. Outstanding customer service considering there is no on-site reception. Recommended hotel."
