Scandic Polar

Tolle Lage. Feines Frühstücksbuffet. Sehr herzliches Personal.

Alles gut.

Wir haben diese Unterkunft nur für eine kurze Nacht gebucht: gegen 3 Uhr kamen wir vom Aurora Trip zurück und um 10 Uhr mussten wir schon zum Flughafen. Zu diesem Zweck war das Hotel ok- ein Bett war da, man konnte schlafen. Es liegt mitten in der Stadt, man kommt schnell überall hin.

Das Hotel ist in die Jahre gekommen, die Ausstattung wirkt billig, abgenutzt und es ist nicht gemütlich. Anscheinend kommt trotzdem genug Kundschaft, so dass die Besitzer sich um die Ausstattung und Zufriedenheit der Gäste nicht kümmern müssen.

Room is clean and big.

Zentrale Lage, freundliches und sehr hilfsbereites Personal und schönes Zimmer und gutes Frühstück. Und eigener Sauna im Zimmer

Śniadanie urozmaicone i B . Smaczne .

Great location, spacious rooms ( our room had a sauna, too).

A little tired- but tge original 70s features well kept. TV didnt work in the room- but didnt miss it too much

Tutto nel complesso

Niente in particolare

10年前にも利用した施設です。ロケーションも施設の内容も知った上で今回も利用しました。 前回も今回も特に良かったのは，チェックイン前もチェックアウト後も大きな荷物をフロントが確認できる状態で保管してくれることです。チェックイン時刻前の早朝にロヴァニエミへ到着し，チェックアウト後も夕方まで滞在する者にとって大変助かります。

再利用した施設です。思っていた通りで，問題はありません。

L'emplacement, la taille des chambres, le buffet du petit déjeuner...

Le personnel de l'accueil... Pas toujours très accueillant... Un seul chevet pour 2 Pas de prises électriques près des lits...

La proximité de tout

liked the variety of meals in the buffet

I didn't like the plastic stamped tablecloth. and the white cold lights in all the spaces

Super Frühstück , klasse freundliches hilfreiches Personal

Alte Zimmer Einrichtung , nur lauwarme Heizung(hatte eine Stromheizung als zusatz aber meinKollege hatte keine und es war echt kalt in seinem Zimmer. Die Fenster sind Luftdurchlässig und man fühlte im Zimmer die kalte(-13C) Luft von Draußen

Świetna lokalizacja w centrum miasta, blisko dobrych restauracji. Genialna sauna w łazience dołączona do pokoju.

Śniadania mogłyby być ciut lepsze

Nice location and parking available.

The room was too cold. With the heating on a maximum value, room temp wouild barely get to 19C. I asked for an electrical heater but was told none were available.

Buen desayuno, cómodo y buena ubicación.

La ducha no se le Regulaba la altura

Nous sommes resté une nuit mais plusieurs ne nous aurez pas dérangé. Accès au sauna jusqu'à 10 p.m Lhotel et la chambre sont tres propre et la literie est très confortable. La salle de bain est très propre. Super petit déjeuner et très bon emplacement dans le centre ville

Rien

Tesis konumu çok iyiydi yürüyerek şehri dolaştık, arabamız olduğu için park yeri sıkıntısı yaşamadık, arabayla 10 dakikada santa claus village a gittik, resepsiyonda çalışan bir bayanın önerdiği göle giderek 2. Günümüzde kuzey ışıklarını gördük.

Tesis çok eski yenilenmesi gerekiyor. Mobilyalar merdivenler yemek salonu hepsi aşırı eski.

Localisation Petit déjeuner

Un peu chèr mais parmi les moins chèrs de Rovaniemi Un peu vieillot

Muy bien ubicado, y el personal de recepción es agradable. La habitación incluye toallas y secador de pelo. Hay una sauna común disponible entre las 5 y las 10 pm.

El hotel está muy viejo, aunque la habitación estaba limpia. No había café ni té disponible en la habitación. Para acceder a nuestra habitación, había que subir bastantes escaleras después de coger el ascensor, lo cual es incómodo si vas con maletas.

Aamiainen oli maukas. Täytti odotukset ja sijainti oli hyvä.

La struttura era vicina al centro,colazione eccezionale e staff gentilissimo 😘😘😘

Struttura un po’ datata…ma molto pulita 😘😘😘

Aamiainen oli ihan ok. Sellainen kodinomainen.

Hotelli on jo selvästi vanhanaikainen ja kauhtunut. Tapetin paloilla peitetyt taulut olivat jotenkin huvittavat.

Hyvä

Breakfast was good

I had problems to charge my phone.

Lokalizacja idealna, 3 minuty od Centrum. Dojazd do Wioski Św.Mikołaja trwa 10 minut taksówką. Śniadanie różnorodne, uzupełnione daniami tradycyjnymi.

Warunki noclegowe bardzo skromne. W hotelu jest czysto, jednak hotel wymaga remontu.

Ystävällinen henkilökunta, hyvä sijainti

Huoneissa kylmä!! Hinta-laatusuhde ei kohtaa. 200e kuluneesta ja vanhanaikaisesta hotellihuoneesta!

Excellent location, central to the city - within walking distance of everything around. Helpful and friendly staff. Good variety of breakfast, lovely sauna to be used for hotel guests which was clean and quiet.

The room was quite hot at night with no apparent way to control the heat, and the shower hadn’t sealed at the bottom to the ground - this meant the water leaked onto the bathroom floor when using the shower.

Nice central location

Our stay was a torture which was not heard. We had health and safety issues with 2 kids as young as 4 year and 6 year involved and the hotel took 4 days till something could be done. The shower room drain cap was open and all bacteria and stinky smell kept flooding the room. My son is smell sensitive and he stopped using bathrooms and toilets due to the smell. Sleeping was difficult due to the constant drain smell that seeped in the room. We kept seeking help and no one was listening. After a lot of push they offered us a replacement small room in another hotel which had 2 beds only ( we are 4 people) and at a time when it was 11pm and kids were highly sleepy after a very hectic day. After persistent push atlast their plumber fixed the broken drain cap but by then it was 4 days since facing the issue. We raised complaint with management who was named Sussazane whom we met on the day of check out. She clearly declined having any information regarding the matter. They said they will discuss the matter and will come back to us with compensation which they didn't. They do not care about kids health getting affected. Really avoid this hotel at any cost.

Location great . Staff friendly

No fridge in room..Room awkward shape. Room was cold. Breakfast items cold and should have been hot. Stairs to room. Definetly charge too much for accommodation. Hasn't been updated since 1970.

Location was fine

Hotel is very dated and it shows built 1960 and no renovation my "double" room had 3 single beds in an odd shaped room. Breakfast wasn't very nice either, strange food not appealing

Het hotel ligt op een centrale plek met alles in de buurt.

Близько абсолютно до всього.Всі екскурсії всіх компаній ,всі розваги починаються в 2хв від готелю.Не треба їздити на таксі,як іншим

La localización, está al lado de la calle principal, muy cómodo. El desayuno buffet estaba bastante bien y son flexibles con las horas, para niños genial.

Estaba bastante sucio, no hacen las habitaciones, solo estiran la colcha y cambian toallas. Las lámparas llenas de polvo El baño cuando llegamos ya había pelos ajenos en la ducha y como no lo limpian mucho acaba estando bastante sucio después de unos días sin limpiar

Es ist ziemlich zentral gelegen.

Es ist nicht hygienisch, es gibt keinen tägluchen roim service und die ausstattung lässt auch zu wünschen übrig.

Location.

Furniture look old fashioned.

Great location in the city centre close to shops and restaurants. Rooms are old with worn out furniture and especially the toilet require a complete renovation, old tiles and tap, missing part of the shower box enclosure, cleaning is really bad as in three rooms we found hair from previous guests in the restroom, even pee strains in one case. Anyway leaving a short written note made it as the cleaning staff paid more attention. When we checked in one room was not available and we got downgraded for the first night but the hotel staff was very friendly and offered us a complimentary dinner, much appreciated. Overall hotel pricing is outrageous anywhere in Rovaniemi

Old furniture, old toilet, overall cleaning

Hotellihuone oli todella kylmä, sain vaihdettua toiseen ja kylmä toisessakin huoneessa.

The beds were comfortable and, surprisingly for Finnish hotels, this place managed to have a shower cabinet built in such a way that the water flows into the floor outlet properly without dousing all the rest of the bathroom. The breakfast was great, and the clerk at the reception was attentive, and the whole process went fast enough. Parking was free in the courtyard (with licence plate registration), which is a big plus! The room is spacious, perhaps a bit too spacious for just two people. All in all, it was great, but only for the single night we stayed.

First of all, the windows are showing their age (the whole thing seems to be dating back to the 1970s) with the inability to keep sound out, making you wake up to snowploughs and garbage trucks at 5 AM. The fire drill plaquette on the door mentions the countries "SF" and "SU", which shows the age of the place, along with the single-cavity metal radiators. We also may have found the wiretap's control centre on the wall? (Nah, it was some "massage bed" thing that no longer exists in the place.) Opening the small window was enough to cool the room sufficiently for a good sleep. The lack of properly grounded (3rd pin) electric sockets was a bit frightening, my laptop gave me some slight shocks. The price point is a bit brutal, even if this hotel was the cheapest available option (for a single-night stopover, we weren't looking for anything extra). (Slight nit: the "free Wi-Fi with no password needed" only works with WiFi6 devices; on some older devices that we have, we were only able to find password-protected 2.4 GHz networks.)

Czysto, świetne śniadanie

Drzwi do kolejnego pokoju przez które było słychać każdy szmer.

close to the center

Unhelpful and rude Staff, room was cold heater not working, bathroom flooded no drinking water supplied instead charged us, no hot water kettle and charged

sufficiente colazione buona posizione

Costo spropositato per la tipologia di hotel. Camere vecchie, sporche (ho dovuto richiedere più volte la pulizia della camera). Ribadisco il costo eccessivo dell'hotel rispetto ai servizi proposti. Non lo consiglierei.

A város központi részén található. A reggeli megfelelő.

Nem volt a szobában hűtőszekrény, kávé/tea , vízforraló. Vacsora lehetőség helyben nincs. A környéken csak előre foglalással lehet éttermet találni.

The staff was nice. The rooms were clean cozy and warm. The sauna was a perk and the closet to hold luggage was a lifesaver. The breakfast could've shown a bit more variety and the sauna shower could've been cleaned but other than that it was perfect.

Good food and variety., Coffee not strong enough.

It is a worn down hotel, carpets nbeed replacing, drapes in the rooms need replacing, the base of the shower leaks, the room lighting is terrible, too few electrical sockets and none by the bed for recharging.

L’emplacement de l’hôtel qui permet de faire tout à pied Les chambre étaient propre

Le petit déjeuner pas terrible Salle de bain un peu petite

Posizione e dinamica ottima colazione

Caminetti finti

Le buffet du petit déjeuner est très fourni et propose un large choix.

Bra hotell mitt i centrum med god frukostbuffe

personale disponibile, molto bella la hall di ingresso con grossi tavoloni dove potersi sedere comodamente. vi è una macchinetta automatica per the/caffe e acqua bollente o temperatura ambiente da bere. ottima posizione centrale dell'hotel, praticamente sei in centro. e li vicno vi è un supermarket aperto h24.

diciamo che il 3°/4° letto aggiuntivi sono poi delle brandine apribili, a misura di bambino .

Erinomainen aamupala ja siistit, hiljaiset huoneet. Todella miellyttävä hotelli.-

We had a fantastic family winter vacation. The location of Scandic Polar is good in Rovaniemi. The breakfast was good at Scandic Polar.

# Review of Scandic Polar Hotel in Rovaniemi (3/2025) ## Location The location of Scandic Polar is excellent - very convenient in the center of Rovaniemi and close to shops, pubs, and restaurants. This makes it easy to explore the city on foot and enjoy the local amenities. ## Food The food at the hotel is good quality but lacks variety from day to day. During my stay, I had both breakfast and dinner at the hotel, and while tasty, the menu became repetitive. ## Staff The staff members are friendly and welcoming, providing good service throughout my stay. ## Rooms The rooms are clean and spacious, offering comfortable accommodation. ## Facilities The hotel has a homely atmosphere but feels somewhat outdated, with visible signs that renovations haven't been done for quite some time. There are signs indicating a sauna and gym on the -1 floor, but these facilities are closed and not operational. ## Overall Impression Scandic Polar is a decent hotel for an overnight stay, but I wouldn't recommend it for longer visits. It provides the basic amenities needed for a comfortable short stay, but its dated appearance and limited facilities make it less suitable for extended periods.

The breakfast was good, a nice range of choices. Fresh hot food was good. Staff were friendly and helpful. Hotel was clean. Good central location. Quiet. Comfortable bed. Nice seating area in the lobby.

The shower head did not stay in place when being used. The hairdryer did not work. There were no hot drinks available in the room.

Kuvien perusteella vanha hotelli, mutta yllätti positiivisesti. Henkilökunta todella ystävällistä ja mukavaa!

Great location. Within a few minutes walking distance to most of the collection points for all the tours we did. Good price point. Friendly staff.

Very old building and dark lighting throughout. Our room had only one small window that could open, the rest couldn't be opened. We had a small sauna in our bathroom which we used once but it took quite a while to heat up and wasn't really worth it in the end. The breakfast selection wasn't great and some foods didn't taste very fresh.

We only stayed for two nights. The Family room was large and the bathroom meet our needs nicely. The breakfast was excellent and the service and staff very helpful. We wouild stay again.

Nothing, but the hotel is showing its age and needs refurbishing.

3 star so don’t expect much, extremely dated, shower wasn’t great, no kettle in room or phone for reception The Breakfast was disgusting, what is supposed to be scrambled egg is just one big congealed mess that has to be sliced!! Bacon, again very pink , not like bacon Couldn’t have tea as they had no fresh milk, at all, I did ask reception It is kept clean and the receptionists are all very friendly and helpful It’s central location was very useful, but thankfully we were hardly in the room

We stayed 4 nights in Scandinavia Pilar hotel and thoroughly enjoy it. There was a great selection at the breakfast buffet. Rooms were comfortable and clean and the lication was perfect

No complaints, maybe slight but expensive but delighted to be in city centre
