    amazing breakfast
    helpful staff
    no on-site restaurant

    Cozy stay with a sauna

    The Polar Suite was super luxurious, especially with the private sauna. Breakfast was amazing, always refilled. Mark at the front desk were very good too help us out. Just a bummer there's no on-site restaurant, but there are plenty of places nearby.

    cozy lounge area
    charming decor
    easy accessibility
    insufficient seating
    public area discomfort

    The cozy lounge area with its charming decor was good as if I was in a winter fairy tale. Accessibility to various areas was seamless, perfect for enjoying a warm cup of espresso in comfort.

    More seating options in public areas would be nice.

    cozy hotel
    spacious rooms
    limited dining options

    The kids adored the wonderful breakfast spread, and we loved the spacious rooms, complete with rain showers and underfloor heating-perfect for warming up after a day outside.

    My kids wished for more kid-friendly meal options during dinner time.

    local artwork
    limited seating

    A cozy corner for winter nights

    The hotel's unique charm was upgraded with the local artwork displayed throughout. Breakfast was a good surprise with fresh local treats.

    The seating options in communal areas felt limited, making it tough to relax with a warm drink during peak hours in the lounge.

    private sauna
    friendly staff
    delicious breakfast
    noisy surroundings
    check-in delays
    dining limitations

    The location is fantastic, just a short walk from shops and restaurants. I loved the Polar Double Room Sauna. It was spacious and cozy. The private sauna really amplified my experience after a long day. The breakfast spread impressed me with a variety of delicious options, especially the Finnish rye bread and fresh pastries. Staff were attentive, always willing to help-Laura particularly stood out for her cute demeanor. I did face some minor annoyances, like the noise from the guests above and the slightly limited dining options in the hotel during peak times. The check-in process could also be streamlined a bit, as it felt a tad slow at times. Still, these didn't overshadow my overall enjoyment.

    comfortable bed
    noise disturbances
    lack of privacy

    Comfortable bed and clean bathroom.

    I also found the lack of earplugs frustrating, as I had to go to reception to address the issue. To make matters worse, the room lacked adequate privacy due to its location, allowing passersby to see inside.

    central location
    delicious breakfast
    crowded dining area
    unpleasant initial room
    extra charge for upgrade

    Central location made it easy to explore shops and cafes, with a good restaurant next door. The Magic Twin Room was spacious, stylish, and soundproof. Breakfast offered a plethora of options, including fresh French pastries. The dining area felt slightly cramped during peak hours. A slight downside was the initial room allocation, which lacked privacy and natural light until a better room was provided for an extra cost.
