Breakfast was every morning the exact same options. Scrambled eggs were terrible, meatballs questionsble, very few cheeses and hams and the ones they had were the supermarket packages cheeses and meats… probably the breads were the only appealing part in the breakfast buffet and coffee was also good but overall a bit disappointing

Hotels.com advertises a games room but there’s no such thing here. Room was nice enough - breakfast was in a very dated room and not great I couldn’t even eat the scrambled eggs as were horrible. Staff gave us incorrect info about airport bus.

Terrible! We arrived there at 11pm and freezing cold temperatures, they gave us the wrong apartment number and we were waiting for 40 minutes for someone to appear and just said to us: ah, your apartment number is the one on the side. I called them multiple times and nothing before! It was extremely disrespectful. The room did not have proper heating and no extra blankets… terrible

Spacious for solo traveler, but not very clean

Stayed in Studio with Sauna. The room was spacious enough for solo traveler, and a small kitchen was available which was good. Sauna worked well. But the building was quite old, and the bedroom was a bit cold when sleeping. Looked not very clean, and there was some uncomfortable smell at shower room.

Uncomfortable stay

My impressions after staying during October when the snow hadn't yet accumulated. The building where my room was located had few guests. The room was old and simple but comfortable to use. If I come to Saariselkä again in the future, I would like to stay here again. (Good) - The hotel staff were friendly. They listened patiently to my broken English and gave clear answers. - I used the sauna daily. It was a standard electric stove sauna, but since no one else used it at the same time, I had it all to myself and enjoyed it comfortably. - The breakfast menu had plenty of variety and was delicious. - I had dinner once at the hotel restaurant, and it was delicious. - The K-Market in the village wasn't too far away, so shopping for groceries and such was no trouble. - Right next to the hotel was a trail into Urho Kekkonen National Park. I enjoyed the silence while walking the trail. (Bad) - I think the facilities are old. The door to my room didn't fit well and required a bit of a knack to open and close. I mentioned at checkout that the front desk staff should probably get it repaired.

Check in closes at 10.00.p.m. at a major tourist area. The plane with tourists from the capital, Helsinki, does not arrive at the closest airfield until 10.30.p.m. They need to consider this. The afterhours lockbox is situated outside. It was minus 25 Celsius and dark when we arrived. The lockboxes inside need two fingers for the metal buttons on either side. I still have peeling finger skin two weeks later from having to touch them. The lockbox should be situated in an inside lobby - very poor. There are multiple buildings in this complex and not well lit, so you have to find your in the dark and the cold and pulling your suitcase through snow.

Si vous prenez une chambre basique ne vous attendez pas à être dans le bâtiment où l'on peut voir la belle entrée et les beaux espaces. Vous serez dans un bâtiment indépendant à 500m qui fait beaucoup moins rêver. La chambre était très petite avec 3 lits au milieu de la pièce et il n'y a aucun rangement pour les affaires donc il faut garder ses valises dans le seul espace restant, il n'était donc pas possible de circuler. La literie n'est pas de qualité avec des matelas très mous. L'état général est correct mais ancien. En revanche c'était plutôt calme et relativement bien isolé. Le sol chaud de la salle de bain était très appréciable. Le petit déjeuner se trouve dans un autre bâtiment, il y a du choix et l'accueil est agréable.

客室は広く綺麗で良かったです。 ただ本館より離れた場所にあり雪の方辿り着くことが大変でした。 3階のお部屋でしたが、エレベーターがなく階段だったのも体力をかなり消耗しました。 冷蔵庫やレンジもあり、ティーバーもたくさんあり良かったです。

建物は古いかもしれませんが室内は綺麗でトイレやお風呂などの水回りも問題なく使えました！シャワーこ水圧がちょっと弱いですがそんなに気になりません。 時期が11月末で外はマイナス20℃近い日もありましたが室内は暖かく過ごしやすかったです！サウナも付いていますが、サウナ後は部屋の中で半袖を着ていたくらいです。 受付の棟から少し離れており3分くらい歩きますが若い人は全然問題無いと思います。朝食が無料で付いているのですが無料とは思えないクオリティで、とっても美味しかったです！ ホテル横のツアーデスクのオーロラツアーにも参加し、ばっちり見れました！ サーリセルカは街自体もとても静かで30分くらいで回れるくらいの規模で、徒歩圏内にスーパーもあり、また訪れたい場所です！

Ala-arvoinen majoitus

Standard-huone ostettu etukäteen netissä. Paikanpäällä selvisi että kyse on economy luokan huoneesta kaikkein kauimmassa parakkirakennuksessa. Kylpyhuone täysin ala-arvoinen. Parkkipaikkoja ei ole, autot jalkakäytävillä ja nurmikoilla. Ei hissiä. Huone kellaritiloissa, betoniseinät ja pieni ikkuna katonrajassa. Reklamoitu hotellille heti saavuttaessa, ei muutosta.
