Basic, but clean
Rooms seemed clear but disappointing bin in bathroom had not been emptied.

This hotel offers excellent value in Rovaniemi.
Clean, simple rooms. Super friendly staff. Good breakfast. Great facilities including a pool with hot tubs, but also - at additional cost - a big kids play area, bowling, and all kinds of sports and/or equipment.
They also have a restaurant with simple meals like burgers and chicken, etc. - decent food at very fair prices.
Great location if you have a car (parking available), but you could manage without a car too.
You can walk to an observation tower just nearby if aurora forecast looks good - we saw amazing auroras here - no tour or car needed if the sky is clear.
Honestly, if you are a family traveling with kids, I can’t imagine a better place to stay in Rovaniemi.

This is a former Olympic training center now used by local youth as a full time training facility so there's a LOT of kids and families staying here but everyone was polite and well behaved. There was no nonsense. There are two food facilities on site - a snack bar that has sandwiches, burgers and snacks and the cafeteria used to feed the athletes and provide the free breakfast. Both were very good. I highly recommend the in-room sauna rooms if you can get them. Note this is an easy to get to place from the airport but there is nothing within walking distance. Beds are very comfortable but there's no way to turn up the heat in the rooms. TV is very limited. You'll be Uber'ing to town and every where else from here. But thats not a deal braker. it was a good place to stay.
28.03.2025 ronan
The Room had 2 twin bedrooms and a double bed in the main area.A kitchen with dining area .A bathroom with Shower and Sauna.And a Balcony high enough to keep the kids safe.
Locks were secure n safe.Noise was minimal
TICKS ALL BOXES

The Hotel had lots for the kids
Bowling alley
Pool with waterslide
Playzone area
Plus im sure lots more as it was an Olympic training centre.

Location just 10 to 15 mins from the city.

The breakfast had nearly everything and was not as hot as hoped.Minor blemish.

The restaurant served Great tasty food which was easily Accessible.Comfy as well.

The Staff
Always Always Always helpful , informative and though not always able to meet our needs as sometimes out of their control.They were friendly and always able to offer alternatives.
Well Done Guys.

Overall I would highly reccomend to any family to stay here.
Efficient and Friendly.
19.03.2025 Kirsty
Great day perfect for us as a family. Enough to entertain the kids in the hotel but far enough out of town to have that winter woodland feel.
17.03.2025 Vangelis
Great family friendly sports hotel. There is a pool, indoors playground and a bowling center within the same building. Highly recommended for eve.
11.03.2025 Joost
Very friendly staff who are excellently capable of speaking English. The rooms are very clean en we have everything we need in the rooms. The food here was great! Breakfast and diner buffet.

The hotel is not far from Ravaniemi, I think it's a 20 minute walk.
