Prima 3* hotel in Ivalo
Pros:

Prima ligging in Ivalo. Wij verbleven maar 1 nacht, geen excursies gedaan. Vriendelijk personeel en een goed restaurant.

Cons:

Het is een 3* hotel, niks mis mee maar wel gedateerd

Nice hotel and location. Rooms and bed could be more modern and comfortable.
Pros:

Breakfast was good. The facilities overall were good and prices for drinks etc. weren't bad for a hotel.
The staff were pretty helpful. Loved the log fire in the entrance area.

Cons:

The bed wasn't the most comfortable. The pillows were to big and soft.
The rooms are a little dated and could do with some updating. The WiFi was a little slow and the TV was locked down so we couldn't connect a laptop using an HDMI cable to watch some streaming.

Für eine Nacht ok, aber länger wäre nicht drin.
Pros:

Gute Erreichbarkeit, freundliches Personal

Cons:

Das Frühstück war eher mit kleiner Auswahl bestückt, gab wenig zum auswählen, keine frischen Früchte. Für ein Hotel dieser Grösse könnte es besser sein.

Hyvä perushotelli
Pros:

Palvelu erinomaista.
Huoneen koko hyvä, nojatuoli huoneessa tosi kiva.
Hotellin sauna hyvä.
Aamiainen parantunut muutaman vuoden takaisesta kovasti.

Cons:

Aamiaiselle toivoisin maidottomia jugurtteja.
Ja ruokiin nimikyltit, siis esim mistä puuro on tehty.
Hinta-laatu suhde huonehinnan noustessa ei enää oikein kohtaa.

Hyvä majoituspaikka
Pros:

Aamiainen todella hyvä ja sijainti myös hyvä.

Pros:

Aaamiainen oli oikein hyvä ja hotellin sijainti myös hyvä.

Cons:

Huoneista oli otettu lämmitys pois ja siellä oli niin viileää, että vilustuin! En muista missään hotellissa palelleeni niin paljon kuin tässä Hotelli Ivalossa!

Kiva hotelli keskustassa
Pros:

Aamiainen runsas ja riittävä. Mitään ns omaa tai erikoista ei ollut, mutta normaalille ruokavaliolle ok. Itse kaipaan soijajugurttia aamiaiselle kyllä.
Palvelu kivaa ja joustavaa.
Sauna kiva, uima-allas mukava lisä saunomiseen.
