Grand Hotel Lapland

Grand Hotel Lapland

10/10 Excellent
"We arrived late so convenient location and a really efficient check-in (keys ready, no lengthy unnecessary stuff) were much appreciated. Excellent breakfast. Comfy bed. Only criticism would be complicated lighting in room and some furniture choices (bag stand, easy chairs) designed more for aesthetics than function."

"Clean room and nice breakfast. Shared bathroom was fine. We only stayed for 1 night but would return. If you want somewhere with all the luxuries this is not the place, but if you want somewhere clean, warm and welcoming for a reasonable price then I highly recommend this place. "
