We recently stayed at Arctic Light Hotel for our first trip to Finland and Rovaniemi, and it was such a beautiful experience. The room was spacious, comfortable, and exactly what we needed for a relaxing stay. Wi-Fi worked great, and check-in was quick and easy. The front desk staff were incredibly kind, they even provided us with a wall outlet converter we didn’t have and let us know we’d been upgraded, which was such a thoughtful touch. The entire stay felt peaceful and quiet, which made it the perfect setting for a summer holiday. Every interaction with the hotel staff was warm and welcoming, and we were always greeted with kindness. After long days exploring the city and everything Rovaniemi has to offer, it was so nice to come back to a place that felt calm, cozy, and cared for. Truly grateful for the hospitality. Would absolutely stay here again.

Beautiful hotel in the middle of Rovaniemi. Service was amazing (Mark at the front desk and our server at dinner were OUTSTANDING). Everyone was extremely helpful, the hotel was chic yet comfortable and It was the largest room we have stayed in Europe. Will definitely stay here again.

This hotel is a lovely place to stay at. Cozy sitting areas to have a glass of wine before retiring for the night. Helpful front desk staff. The parking lot is small, behind the hotel, but there is one. The breakfast is a dream, so much to choose from. My room and bathroom were clean and well supplied with needed products. I highly recommend this hotel.
