A small hotel but everything is there for a comfortable stay. No lift to second floor. Nice comfy lounge, good but not exceptional breakfast. 6 mins walk to centre of town. Staff very helpful and friendly.

The room was clean, but during the winter conditions, you should have the options to at least have your room swept. Front desk staff was not very friendly. Furniture in the lobby was not anything we would sit on. The most disappointing part was the shower. The shower head did not stay up, so you had to use the hand held head, the water ran out of the bottom of the shower stall, so you had to squeegee the water back under the shower door after you had to get wet, lather and then rinse off in there different steps. The location was not bad it was less than a 10 minute walk to the city center.

Very basic hotel, location is great but staff is not friendly at all, esp the blonde lady with glasses. Bed is very hard, thin mattress on divan. Pillow is very flimsy and uncomfortable. Bathroom has a bit of smell from the pipe, soap is terrible so bring your own. Breakfast was acceptable, not the best but at least there are some toast & jam.

Pros...

Hotel is in best location near to city centre.walkable to city centre.All staff is very helpful and warm welcoming.Especially Himalaya is very knowledgeable and helful



Cons..

First TV doesn't have access to many channels you need your own account. In my room some channel is not working which is a basic channel , I called the staff but no he was not able to fix it. In the shower the drainage stingy smell is coming.shower gel was almost empty that was supposed to check byhousekeeping, needs to check before guest arrival.
Breakfast is very basic everyday.Hotel suppose to add some more fruits and vegetarian options .Even inform on desk and housekeeping for daily cleaning they missed .The housekeeping department needs to be not providing great service.
This is our personal opinion because we stayed there.

The staff were helpful and the hotel is close to the airport and a shopping mall. The main reasons why I didn’t give the hotel more stars are:

There is no lift so if you are travelling with heavy luggage you might want to look elsewhere.

The room is pretty old and the bathroom is small. There is not much space between the shower curtain and the shower so it was uncomfortable. The housekeeping didn’t check the shower gel. It was empty on our visit. The toilet paper was in a holder on the wall opposite the toilet seat so only someone with very long arms can reach it.

I would not recommend the hotel. Apologies to the staff.

I was supposed to stay in Rovaniemi for one night and next morning fly out to Helsinki. My flight got canceled and my only option was to take an overnight train from Rov to Helsinki. I tried to explain my situation to the front desk staff and she was completely unhelpful. That same rude woman also checked in my friend and he had asked if he could do early check in (not an uncommon thing to ask if hotels can accommodate when rooms are available). Her response was, \"Did you read the booking information?\" Also asked if he could leave his bags until check in (another common request) and she was short about that and said he could do what he wants with the bags. My only negative experience my whole week trip in Norway/Finland was this hotel.

Bathroom very small and wet. Bifold door jammed took ages to close shower. Triangular shower too small for a 6.4 man. Kettle was rusty and had mould inside, had to get a replacement. Fridge wasn't working and Tv was not connected properly. Corridor had very old carpet. Food wasn't great. Bread was great cuz it was not baked by them and rest was just very ordinary for a $4000 4 night. All the reviews was good so I booked here but it turns out shocking how people did not complain about the price vs quality. Sauna was good though. Not posh but very effective.

We arrived before 8am. Not only were we able to leave our luggages before check in, Greta offered to give us towels and let us use the spa area to shower and freshen up before our tours. Though we didn’t need to do so, the extent the staff went to make sure we’re comfortable and well settled before we even check in is such a nice gesture. The breakfast provided is good and the room is comfortable.

At the mall there is a Article Park office where you can be able to book the aurora tour and more. Also a supermarket.

We had a wonderful time staying at the hotel it was in the perfect place very close to town. Breakfast and dinner were very tasty only complaint we had was buffet prices were changed half way through our stay and we weren’t told in advance only when we went to pay. Reception staff were very knowledgeable and went the extra mile finding a sledge for my daughter to enjoy the snow. Sauna was lovely, clean only thing to say is watch your head in the sauna as the ceiling is quite low

Such a wonderful stay at this hotel. Is was a little nervous initially to book but I'm so glad we stayed here. It's a small hotel and a little bit further out than others but it's a completely short walkable distance to the town center and bus stop to the Santa village. There's plenty of food for breakfast and the choice to pay extra for evening meals. Staff are so wonderful and the hotel and area was so quiet when we stayed in March which we loved. Although the hotel was pretty full with guests it's probably the quietest we have stayed and it was delightful. The hotel itself is a little older but I would definitely stay here again if we were ever back in the area, such great value.

The breakfast was a buffet that included variety of juices, cold meat, bread, yogurt, fruits, waffles, coffee and tea, pastries, eggs, potatoes, and hot meat. Staff was very friendly and helpful.

Impressive and Surprising Breakfast!! Recommended

It was nice to staying at Hotel Aakenus, the staff are friendly and helpful. The breakfast is always impressive and surprising everyday, especially the waffle maker , it is fun and interesting to have my own waffle every morning. Overall this is a nice hotel, my room is cosy and bright however there the housekeeping has rooms of improvement , for example the bed making is too rough and even one day my bed is not being rearranged or even the pillow is on the floor. The faucet is not clean, one cup was missing one day... etc, the housekeeping is not done carefully or detailed. I will still recommend to my friend since I really enjoy my 6 days at Hotel Aakenus.

Good stay in central

Overall a great hotel for a good budget! The best part was that it was centrally locates, about a 10 minute walk to the very center and the Santa village bus stop. The room was good and comfy- the only downside is the shower leaked all over the floor because the door didn’t shut all the way. It was also a bit of a pain being on the first floor- there’s a good amount of traffic outside and if we were to open the window everyone would see right in. The breakfast was really good. I loved the potato meat dishes, the cakes, and the waffle maker. I only wish they kept their coffee hotter and didn’t water down their juice. The staff was very friendly. Also for the kids, it was very cool they had a play area at breakfast and sleds they could take. I would stay again!
