Stayed here because of the reviews. A decent hotel though I wouldn’t call it four star, but for Rovaniemi it probably is. Pretty expensive internet access for your room but free computer usage in the lobby. Decent shower with good water pressure and the zoom bar was a friendly place to hang out after a long day of exploration. I... More

Hotel Hotel Santa Claus falls well short of what I have come to expect from a four star hotel. Upon arrival there is no porter to take your luggage to your room. We booked a deluxe room to accommodate our two children, as there are no family rooms. The rooms are very small with with two single beds pushed together... More

The hotel is situated in the middle of town which is great but this is no where near 4 star as was rated by First Choice. Bring your own shampoo etc. Our superior room for a family of 4 was small and the beds had no proper matresses but, what looked like a thick douvet. My sons bed consisted of... More

We have just returned from a magical holiday to lapland. It's very rare to find a holiday that exceeds expectations, this one did! The hotel is well situated, very comfortable, clean and has one of the best choices for breakfast we have ever seen. The Lapland holidays are expensive in comparison, however, go with the tour operator and trust their... More

We have just spent 2 nights here. Our travel agent booked it, however if I had known that there was literally going to be hundreds of children we would have chosen a different hotel. We aarived before 3, the reception girl informed us that we couldnt check in till 3. That was ok but it took about another 30 minutes... More

Nice and clean Hotel. Was transferred to this Hotel because the hotel we had booked was overbooked. So a bit of an upgrade, which was good. The downside: they charge for everything, the wifi, the movies (all movies 11 euros each, I mean seriously!), even the sewing kit 3,50 eur. Somero noise from the street. Nice balcony. Mukava hotelli, mutta... More

Thank you very much for your feedback.Glad to hear you liked our product. Unfortunately you have been charged for the hotel amenities which should have been free for hotel guests. I am truly sorry for that. With regards to entertainment services on TV, you are right that one movie costs 11€. Choosing the special package offer for 18€ hotel guest... More

I've stayed at Hotel Santa Claus for about 5 weeks in total during 2011 and I can safely say it's the best hotel in Rovaniemi. Why? Because the rooms are clean and nice, service is friendly and the hotel restaurant works very well. It's a nice and modern 4 star hotel. I've stayed in both the deluxe rooms with a... More

first, let me say that i live in finland, so i am very much used to the high prices here, but this hotel is just ridiculously overpriced. if you book a standard room you will get a tiny chamber with the charm and personal touch of a motel room and view to the industrial looking concrete inner yard with no...
