Friendly front desk staff. Four restaurants inh the building. Good location in town center. Nice room and bathroom, very clean and comfortable, although a little bit small. Parking in hotel garage. Breakfast in the Fransmanni restaurant is o.k. but not very special. It was always crowded during breakfast time, so we had to look for a table to sit down.... more

As noted in previous reviews, this is primarily a business hotel, very well located in the center of Oulu. My stay was very pleasant. The decor was colorful and had more character than an average business hotel. Standard room was not very large, but well furnished and clean. The temperature control and message mailbox were an interactive feature on the... more

The breakfast buffet was excellent and had all too... more

It's new, rooms are modern, clean and quiet (but standard rooms are not very large), beds are good, bathrooms large and equipped with floor heating, breakfast is good (even... more

The Arina is a wonderful, newly remodeled hotel located in the heart of Oulu. In fact, it is on a corner of the pedestrian street right in the town center. The location is convienient to anywhere you would want to go and is just about a 10 minute (or less) walk from the rail station. We booked a superior room... more

Arrived at Arina Oulu a few days after it opened. There was no kettle in the bedroom, so impossible to make a cup of tea/coffee. I had to go to the local supermarket to buy one (20 Euros). Also had to buy a mug, spoon, coffee and milk. These basic items have been standard issue at all other hotels in... more
