This hotel is ideal if you want to stay away from the city centre life. However, if you want to visit Rovaniemi and what it has to offer, you do need a car.

Lovely hotel, comfy beds, quiet, nice breakfast buffet each morning. Isolated. The restaurant was closed except for breakfast since it’s the off-season; that was a bit of a nuisance, but they sell snacks in the lobby. Sauna available in the evenings.
