Easy to drive to entrance, parking available in garage, and the dinner recommendation was fantastic. Walks in both evening and early morning a great addition. Fun to see downtown Oulu. Room worked well for the three of us, and breakfast was very good.

Decent hotel for the price

Good hotel for the price. Staff was very kind. We reserved the family room and it was super small. Breakfast was ok but better at other Scandic hotels in Finland (a lot of the food was cold).

Overnight stay with the Mrs on our way to lapland. First room had buzzing contactor, not a big problem since the nice reception desk changed our room. The original room we had contained a pornographic playing card between the bible. Not a nice surprise and a sick joke. Kind of ruined our stay in this nice hotel, was in conversations well beyond our stay. Good breakfast, very comfortable beds. Thanks for the night receptionist who understood the shock caused by the playing card.

A short weekend trip to Oulu

The great location in the middle of the city. The room was clear and breakfast was great. The traffic noise from the main street is quite loud during the weekend evenings.
