    Very occasionally a bit short on staff, if you needed a coffee in the daytime but mostly ok.

    Well presented and well run hotel. Excellent room, good but expensive restaurant, good breakfast. Not too far from the airport and well positioned in the centre of the town, all restaurants were walkable

    The shower box is really tight, although the shower itself is fantastic! You felt like you were under a waterfall! The size of the shower was the only thing I didn't like.

    The hotel is beautiful, stylish (it's a boutique hotel) and the breakfast! I can say it was the best of the whole trip, it's just fantastic! Not only visually wonderful, it's full of options and has just about everything! We loved it! The bed is super comfy, the room has a good size and is very well furnished and lit. The hotel has a restaurant and the food is excellent! And the window opens, even just a little , which is an important point for us, because we need a cool room to sleep and It's not often that the room temperature is cool enough for us to sleep in. The hotel has a very good location in Rovaniemi if you don’t want to drive, and has parking lot as well.

    The hotel locates in the center of Rovaniemi and near the river. Its location is very good. There are many restaurants around the hotel, including its own restaurant which is very good. I reserved table before arrival. Kids like the moose meat very much. The hotel is well-decorated. The lobby is cozy. We booked a family room which has one Queen-sized bed and two single beds. The room is big enough for meet the need of a family. Breakfast is good. Staff of reception desk are very helpful. He told us that we could take sleds for kids and there is a playground not far away. The hotel, the room, the restaurant, the service and the beds are quite good, although the price is also a little expensive.

    In the evening they didn’t have any wine glasses so had to reuse the glass we had. Also at breakfast the tables were not made up so had to sit at a table with someone else’s dirty plates until we asked for them to be cleared.

    The hotel is beautiful and the location is superb. Very stylish but cosy.

    From the start Max and his fellow reception staff could not have been more helpful - the hotel was an oasis to return to in true arctic conditions as low as - 32 C temperatures. The room was comfortable and we had a great 3 days in Rovaniemi

    We're family of 4. We stayed in the polar street double room. The room is very well equipped, very clean and well decorated. Cosy room to relax. Since it's on street level, it's nice to just step out of the room and enjoy the snow right outside the room. Breakfast was good, service was excellent. We also enjoyed the sauna as a family. It's a private space which we could book for an hour for our family use only. Location is excellent. Walking distance to train station, to restaurants, to meeting place for tour activities. Overall, am enjoyable stay.

    The restaurant is cosy but the service and the food are not as good as the next door Nili and the sister restaurant Monte Rosa at the City hotel. Customer at the next table used hand free to speak over the phone loudly. People dining in Monte Rosa are different.

    We stayed at the Christmas Cabin. The decoration and design was excellent. We are surprised to have a Christmas tree with light at the suite.
