概ね満足．
Pros:

朝食は種類も多くとても良い．部屋も綺麗でシャンプー類がフィンランドの有名品でした．

Cons:

2泊目の夜は他の客がとてもうるさく3時頃まで寝付けないほどでした．ホテルのせいではないですが，積極的に注意を促して欲しい．

Great location, lovely sauna, helpful staff and saw the Northern Lights a short walk away
Pros:

The location of this hotel was excellent - right across the road from the bus stop and across from the river where I was able to see the Northern Lights - a bit muted because of city lights but a clear view nonetheless. I had seen them previously up north but it was great to see them again. The room was compact but had everything I needed. The hotel sauna was excellent and I could have spent much more time there. Breakfast was good and started early which was great as I had to leave to catch a plane.

Cons:

There is nothing I did not like.

Pros:

Hotel grande e situato in centro a Rovaniemi. L'hotel è molto pulito e la camera molto confortevole e grande. La colazione è varia sia salata che dolce. Comodo il posto auto a pagamento all interno dell'hotel.
