Top Rovaniemi Hotel Reviews

Polar Nook Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely 10/10 stay! There is no physical reception so upon arrival you’ll receive instructions & codes for how to get in the building & the keys— it’s such an easy smooth process. Seriously was attached to a mall & a 3 minute walk to city center it was great. It’s about a 10 minute walk to the bus stop for Santa Claus Village & about 5 minutes from where they drop you back off. So close to everything. Also in a safe & super quiet area. The room was extremely clean & updated, they provided complimentary soaps, had a mini fridge, & the window opened all the way to allow cool air to enter which was good because it did get a little too warm in the night. The shower pressure was amazingggg. I could rave about this place all day it’s a great family friendly place 100% would come back. Also kiddy-corner to a 24/7 open Burger King which hit the spot on late nights lol. Great location & stay. Thank you!
