Stayed there for 6 nights as being my base camp for my hunt for the aurora borealis. Good hotel good kitchen good personnel. Only bad thing is that the kitchen is closed on sundaynight. The staff accomodated me very nice on my nocturnal activities. The lake is nearby as is the city center but hey, the city isn't that big... More

Recently stayed at Aakenus for four nights. To put this review into context I paid 99 Euro a night which, let's face it, for Rovaniemi is a bargain. This included accommodation for two people, free WIFI, daily sauna, free parking and breakfast. The room is more like a hostel/motel room than what I'd call a hotel room. The bed's are... More

Everything was bit outdated or nothing special, but room was clean and staff friendly. Breakfest was very basic, and lack of elevator makes moving with the suitcase bit unconvenient. Museums Arktikum and Pilke were very close.

There is small kitchen for you to make your coffee or have a snack. Breakfast is provided and it is good, wide variety. It is near to the most northern Mac. It is... More

I stayed in this hotel because of the good reviews on Tripadvisor but have found my experience a little at odds with other reviewers. I agree it represents great value for a town that is, with all respect, intent on squeezing as much of your tourist pounds out of your pocket! The place is spotless but very basic, I would... More

Aakenus Hotelli provided us with the last (triple) accommodation in Rovaniemi, when we booked from Australia in the first week of July! The room and bathroom were both quite large, the hotel staff friendly and helpful and it's located in the main street, roughly 4 short blocks from the centre of town.

Value vs price was really not that good as the it is Christmas season and the price was higher than normally. Apartment was outdated and I thought it was clean until I fetched kids toys under the bed... big mistake.. There was also other... More

Quite a good compromise (value vs price) for Finland. We used their flats that are clean, warm and close to the center. Breakfast are nice, as well the dinner (not as a restaurant, but quite cheap and acceptable...so perfect if you are tired and do not want to travel). People at the reception are very nice. So this is quite... More

My husband and I took our 2 children aged 6 and 8 to Lapland last christmas. Let me just say it was the best thing we have done to date. The experience was magical and our children are still talking about it to this day. The Hotelli Aakenus was where we stayed for 6 nights and it was excellent. As... More

Break fast is fair but for vegeteraians the choice is limited. The hotel is comfirtable walking distance from city centre and... More
