This was my first hotel I visited when I travelled Finland, Norway and Sweden. After arriving from a delayed flight from Manchester to Helsinki then up to Rovaniemi I was glad to finally get to my hotel and get my head down, upon arrival I was given my key and went straight to my room. The reception area and rooms... more

I stayed four days with my mother, brother and sister at the scandic. It's a nice and clean hotel although the rooms located at the inner side of the hotel (and looking at the inner courtyard where the restaurant is located) are very dark. It's location is excellent for lapland in wintertimes. All the main attractions are within a few... more

Just back from the Scandic usual hotel thing really, rooms were grand, clean but with 2 adults and 2 kids and a buggy in it not much space to move around but perfect as your not in the room much. No nightly entertainment there is a bar area but it is quite enough not many Brits or Irish staying there.... more

Unfair of me, considering that I had more issues with the town of Rovaniemi than the hotel itself, but I just get the feeling that the Scandic along with the area is not set up in any way for Santa-believers and their parents. Kids just ran wild and a Scandic hotel because there was nothing for them to do other... more

On arriving at the Scandic it looks very nice from the outside and is right in the centre of town. Once inside the hotel the main public areas were more like a shopping centre than a hotel reception area, glass walls, gift shops and a coffee bar all before you even get to the reception desk. Staff very friendly but... more

Very standard Scandic hotel. Nice and clean room with normal size for European hotels. Clean and functional bathroom (if a bit small). Only 1 small window that could only partly open. Pretty poor selection of tv-channels, but the free internet makes up for this. Breakfast was as usual at Scandic hotels horrific. The list of things present at the breakfast... more

I have spend three nights in this hotel during my holiday trip to Finland and I can say I am satisfied considering quality/price range. Rooms are enough spacious and clean as well as properly refurbished (we had sauna in our room). Breakfast is good and staff is friendly and professional, can't say the same of the restaurant (had no good... more

We stayed at the Scandic and got a great summer rate for a room that included a Sauna – check the Scandic website for the most flexible room choices. This hotel is handily located for the city centre and the excellent Arctikum museum. It also has a good car park right on site (and the Hertz office is on site... more

This hotel looks and, on the room floors, smells like an hospital! Rooms are like Motel 6; breakfast so and so. Not everyone at the reception speaks english. more
