Suzanne, Canada

The location is perfect, right in the center of town. The staff we met was nice and the restaurant is very good.

Audunn, Iceland

The location was close to everything in the city center. Shopping, booking tours, and places to eat. The staff was very helpful and friendly with all our questions and requests! The room was clean and comfortable. The free breakfast buffet was good with a lot of options ( even reindeer pâté’). The sauna was nice and you can book a private one for $20 an hour. We arranged late check out as well with having a late overnight train booking and were happy to pay the extra amount. Wonderful stay!

Heikki and Vuokko Gröhn opened City Hotels' doors on the 9th of March 1978. The hotel was then the 3rd largest hotel in the Lapland region and employed 15 persons. City Hotel already expanded in 1985. Same year Gröhn family and City Hotel staff was awarded "Entrepreneur of the year" and the restaurant was awarded with the "Best Service in town-award". Mikael and Anne Gröhn continued Heikki's and Vuokko's footsteps and they turned the hotel into the modern and cosy 4* star hotel it is today.

“Too dark, too small, too stuffy”
- • Business trip

- • Luxury Double Room
- • Stayed 1 night
The room was small, dark and stuffy. The stuff was indifferent. And the breakfast was the saddest and poorest breakfast I've ever seen at a 4* or even 3* star hotel (note: I travel a lot all around Europe and Scandinavia). Overall, I can say I don't see myself coming back to this hotel even though I definitely will come back to Rovaniemi due to my work.
I liked that fluffy deer thing they put on my bed and that's basically it. But I'd rather have an adequate lightning in my room...

It was really hot in the room. (Summer) and the Windows could not open. I asked the reception the next day and we should have asked for a special key to open a window... would have been nice if this was mentioned upfront.

There is no AC and the beds were not too comfortable, so on a hot summer night it wasn't exactly the best sleep we had during our trip to Lapland. The breakfast seemed okay but the non-alcohol champange had run out, the berries tasted bad and the fruit were not fresh either. Also the corn flakes were the cheapest kind and the coffee below average. The breakfast was really not up to the standard and drags the overall experience down quite a lot.
The hotel staff was friendly and it was very well located & had good car parking facilities. Overall the hotel is very nice and clean and we really enjoyed the bathtub in the room.
