We just stayed 1 night so we weren't looking for a spectacular hotel. However, for the cost we expected more than what we got. The location and complimentary breakfast options were very good. The staff could have been a bit more friendly and the hotel definitely needs an upgrade. Especially in the rooms like the beds and showers.

Excellent location, felt safe. Was clean, warm, cosy, and friendly helpful staff. Would definitely recommend. A little dated but part of its history ( pictures of how it looked many years ago on walls) and feature. Everything we needed as a base

The staff were friendly and the room was spacious. However there are a lot of rooms that are not accessible by lift, and very often tourists had to carry their luggage’s up and down the long staircases, which is very often not easy to do. So be careful when selecting this hotel - if you’re travelling with wheelchairs or heavy luggages, maybe another hotel would be better. If not, Scandic Polar is perfect.

I did not stay at the scandic polar as it was closed. I stay at the scandic pohanjovi instead. This was a more picturesque . Location perfect with busses stopping outside. Also on new yeats eve , i did not have to go outside . This is a four star hotel. It has a pool and sauna. I did not use either mainly because of covid and i was outside most of tbe time.

The lobby area looks pretty old fashion, but once you get to the room, it's very modern and up to date. The staff was super friendly and the breakfast buffet was great. I'd stay there again.

The hotel changed its name and the parking lot is very difficult to find. The breakfast is nice, lots of variety and tasty. The hotel staff is nice and helpful. Some hotel rooms needs to walk uppstairs or downstairs which is very inconvenient to travellers with large luggages

Hotel is based in fantastic location, close to everywhere, food, market, restaurants, trips etc. Hotel staff are very friendly, no issues at all. Would really recommend and come back.

Walls a little thin so be sure to keep your volume down. The room was spacious and the hotel is easy to find. Great eats around the area but may get crowded so do make reservations. Hotel staff are available 24/7 and are friendly and helpful.

The hotel is conveniently located in the city center. supermarket, shops, bar and restaurants are all 2 minutes away. Bus stop to and from train station and Santa Claus village is down stairs. The hotel is a bit old and breakfast is minimal, but given the relatively cheap price and location, I think it is all right if you are looking for a clean and tidy place to sleep.

We enjoyed staying here, right in the middle of the town area. Buses to Santas village nearby and also the frozen river. Christmas decorations everywhere and snow. Its like a fairyland, just beautiful.The room is spacious with big windows to look at the snow. It was great to see the snow falling from our warm room. Breakfast was delicious too. Staff were friendly.

The hotel looks really old and musty - it's in dire need of some refurbishment! The hotel staff is excellent though.Location is pretty good, but Rovaniemi is a small town. Wifi is good. Breakfast spread wasn't a lot.Would return if they would just do something about the hotel.. especially with such a new hotel like Artic Light just opposite at about the same price.

I found this hotel on Expedia and loved the price and location. Public transport was great in Rovaniemi so it worked out great for my friends and I--we took a shuttle in from the airport and could walk all around the downtown. The reception was super friendly and had all kinds of good ideas for things we could do in town, including booking a Northern Lights tour right when we arrived. I really liked the breakfast--the meatballs were cool as were the awesome sugar cookies. The only thing I didn't like was the fact that we couldn't regulate temperature in the rooms. I get hot easily and two of our three nights, I had to sleep with a window open since the heat was cranked. But aside from that, it was a great hotel!

Room service was excellent except the food can get boring especially since we stayed for more than over a week. (The food is the same EVERYDAY!) Checked out was disappointed. As we had a very early flight (6+am) to take, although the counter staff was kind to help up booked a taxi upon our checked out (at 4am), he did not provide further assistant when he knew that Airport only opens at 5am and from hotel to airport takes only 10 to 20mins! The taxi came at 4.10am and we had no choice but take the taxi, and ended up having to be in the cold for nearly half hour before one of the airport staff opened the main door slightly before 5am.
