"A lovely very clean and tidy hotel 5 minutes walk to just about every where
Fab restaurant and bar in the hotel plenty of seats and no need to book great choices of beers and wines
Will definitely stay again"
"What a truly lovely hotel right in the heart of Oulu! It feels genuinely high‑end, and honestly much nicer (and cheaper) than the Lapland Hotel, for example. Everything about it is so practical, spotless, and completely hassle‑free. The amenities are fantastic, and the breakfast included in the price is absolutely wonderful. I’d highly recommend this place to other travellers — it really exceeded my expectations."
" stay at the Magical Pond Igloos was absolutely unforgettable. The property is incredibly unique, with huge panoramic windows that allow you to watch the Northern Lights from the warmth and comfort of your igloo—such a special experience.
The location is stunning, surrounded by peaceful, beautiful scenery that really adds to the magic of the stay. Breakfast was delicious each morning, and the hosts were wonderful—so attentive, welcoming, and thoughtful throughout.
Thank you for such an amazing experience. We will definitely be returning!"
"The breakfast was great, lots of choice, a gluten free area and all food labelled well.
The room was clean. It's in a great location.
We didn't get the Queen bed we were expecting and the extractor fan in the bathroom didn't work. The shower was amazing though. Bed was comfy with decent pillows.
We did struggle with the air con, very dry and luckily we had a balcony so could leave the door slightly open which helped a lot.
The hotel staff were lovely, the hotel was absolutely fine. "
