Check in was a complete shambles ! We booked a superior room ? The room was so small we had no room to move around , with a suitcase of 28inch a medium case we could not open the bathroom door , no safe , no phone or anyway of contacting reception, we asked for the room to be made up upon our return they had put a roll of toilet paper on the bed , the only thing that had been done.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Overall, we had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The room, however, felt a little small and lacking, and we expected a bit more considering the price we paid. The layout of the building was also quite unusual — the very long corridors leading to the rooms made it feel more like walking through an underground car park than a 4-star hotel. The staff were helpful and friendly throughout our stay, although on one occasion housekeeping knocked to clean the room quite late in the afternoon. Breakfast was enjoyable with plenty of hot and cold options, though a few items that should have been hot were on the cooler side. Still, there was a good overall selection. We did enjoy our time at the hotel, but like much of Rovaniemi during this time of year, everything comes at a premium.

Location is great. Behind the hotel is the river with beautiful views, in front is a bus stop to Santa Claus village. Multiple restaurants and stores around and close to city center. It's just that we refused cleaning but housekeeper came anyway while we were out.

Swimming pool was freezing (too cold to be useable) and areas of the hotel were worn/in need of renovation. Main single beds in room were very comfortable, but sofa bed was awful and has left me with a very painful back. That said, staff were friendly, location was good and breakfast was good.
