Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Motelli Rovaniemi is often praised for its cabins, which feature amenities like a private sauna and a well-equipped kitchen including an oven and hob, making cooking convenient. Guests appreciate the quiet location surrounded by forest, and the convenience of being near a bus stop for easy access to the city, although it's about a 12-minute drive to the center.

Lovely Stay! YOU Should Book NOW!

super clean chaletconvenient parkingcomplete cooking facilitieseasy pickup

My chalet was super clean, and everything felt so fresh. I found parking right outside my door. VERY convenient. Tours picked me up right from here, a PLUS. The cooking facilities were complete. I made some tasty meals.

The hot water tank made the bathroom slightly narrow, but honestly, it was a MINOR inconvenience.

The motel staff was very helpful, especially in assisting with aurora borealis viewings. I APPRECIATED that. They provided great directions to a nearby lake, away from light pollution, for optimal viewing.
