Nice place, located near the train station and with a shuttle bus stop. The rooms are good and the breakfast (extra fee) is abondant with a wide choice of foods. You are given a key of the front door in case you want to enter after the curfew. The manageress is kind and serviceable and there is a communal kitchen for those who wish to cook.
Our shower only delivered cold water in the morning, though.
Good breakfast, wifi is free
Nice hotel, comfortable in a good position beat the city Centre.
Budget class hotel - high value for your money.
We were overnight here on our tournee from Southern Finland to Lapland to have one week hiking trip. Rooms are small but clean and you will not get any extras, but for our purposes this is all we needed. In stairs there are even beautiful paintings from Lapland's nature (see fotos). The location is quite good. It is easy to have evening walk and see city centre.
Very basic and slightly run down place, you can get a nice airbnb apartment for less.
A cosy B&B near the train station, with a nice breakfast buffet. However the location is not very convenient to city centre if you do not have a car and have to walk 15mins in winter.
The bed was really comfy and the staff were nice.
However, the shuttle bus said they would pick me up at 4:30 when I had to have my bag checked in by 5am. Even though i expressed my concern to the girls, they assured me this would be ok. The problem is that the bus picked up heaps of people on the way - the bus was packed. So when we got there right on 5am, first the driver just sat in his seat and I had to pull out everyone's bags that were piled on and around mine, then there was a massive queue to check baggage, and the plane left late because all the passengers were late. So all of us who had connecting flights at Heathrow missed or connections. So right now, I'm sitting in helsinki airport, when I should be on the train from London Heathrow to kings cross. This is a really important issue that needs to get sorted out. The airport shuttle is potentially a fantastic way to get to and from the airport - but they really need to review their departure times. Maybe they don't realise that this happens frequently they don't know what happens on the other end due to their late pickup time that's why I'm posting this - so, hopefully, it will be improved for the next people getting picked up. DO NOT BELIEVE THEM WHEN THEY SAY 4:30 AM is OK WHEN YOU NEED TO DROP YOUR BAGS BY 5AM.
Btw the shuttle bus costs €7 and dropped me off and then picked me up, right at the door of Borealis Guesthouse.
The guesthouse is close to the railway and bus stations, but a little far from the town and restaurants. By the time I walked back at around 7-8pm, I was really freezing but the kind girls working at reception allowed me to make some hot chocolate both nights. Apart from the shuttle bus fiasco, I liked the guesthouse you can't imagine how many hotel rooms I've stayed in, and this hotel had probably THE most comfy bed ever. (An extra pillow would have made it totally perfect.)
Nice place, close to rail station and to the center, but the room are a little old, but well decorated.
Just what two guys needed for a quick overnight in Rovaniemi. Comfortable beds, clean shower and bathroom, nice breakfast included, well-stocked kitchen. Well priced at 60€ for the two of us.
Well kept traditional-style guesthouse offering basic but clean rooms, relaxed atmosphere and friendly service. Close to railway stadion and bus station.
