Best Stay in Rovaniemi

We booked this hotel having never been to Rovaniemi. What a surprise in the heart of the city! The hotel was modern yet comfortable. Our Double room with queen bed was wonderful and well appointed. Service was courteous and helpful. Breakfast was a highlight of our day and cocktails at night did not disappoint. Would absolutely recommend to anyone.

Great and Excellent

Check in was hosted by front desk manager Mark. He was awesome and attentive. Great hotel that takes of every need. I have never felt such hospitality for a long while given the amount of hotels stayed in. I only have one word to describe Mark and his crew beyond excellent.

Really nice hotel in Rovaniemi

We had a lovely stay. Our room was clean and large, the bed was comfortable and water pressure was great. It was a little noisy outside the room within the hotel and could hear some street noise but it wasn’t bad. We used the sauna, enjoyed the large buffet breakfast, and the hotel was close to everything by just a few blocks. Free parking on site was also a nice perk.

Noisy but nice

My stay at the Arctic Light Hotel was overall very nice. The room was nice, although it was down from the ground level which meant without the blackout drapes shut anyone walking by on the street could see right in the room. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom was clean, although at 6’ I barely fit under the rainfall shower. My one main gripe was the noise coming into my room from other rooms. Whoever was in the room next to mine seemed to be constantly screaming and I could hear it clear as day through the vent. There was no phone in the room so I had to go up to reception to tell them about it. It was good for a one night stay but bring earplugs.

This property was solid! It's nothing fancy - certainly a little dated - but its a good option to stay. The breakfast is definitely the highlight. Rovaniemi is terrible though (id never come back)
