Excellent location and clean enough but for what it was I found the room to be extremely expensive. Quite cramped and not much room to hang your much needed outdoor clothing.

We stayed at Scandic Rovaniemi City, and overall it was a great experience. The hotel is in a fantastic location - very close to the airport and perfectly situated for exploring the city. Since we arrived late at night, it was an ideal stop for our first day.
The staff at the front desk were extremely helpful and welcoming. The lady who checked us in went above and beyond - she even showed us how to keep our car plugged in and warm overnight so it would be in good condition the next morning. The rooms were clean, the breakfast was decent, and the location couldn’t be better for getting around Rovaniemi.
