Top University of Lapland Hotel Reviews

Lapland Hotels Sky Ounasvaara

10/10 Excellent

"Suite is fine but just to note the inside screens are not blackout (master room glass is transparent to sauna which is also having transparent glass to toilet. ) The other room which had 2 beds also has transparent glass with see through curtains. Just take note for those going with 2 couples might find it inconvenient. Otherwise everything was excellent!"

There’s a kitchenette with a skillet, pot, and dishes. There’s a free laundry room…And the location is in the city center with less than a 10 minute walk to the supermarket, activity centers and the bus stop. I loved this booking"

Hotel Aakenus

8/10 Good

"Förmånligt boende 400 m från centrum, 250 m från köpcentrum. Bra med parkering, bra bastu och skön säng. Det negativa var badrummet där duschen inte hade något skydd så vattnet flöt runt hela utrymmet och man måste lägga handduken på golvet för att vistas "torrskodd" där. Frukosten i normal/enklare format."

Hostel Café Koti

10/10 Excellent

"Nice staff, good location, place was clean, just needed the shower and toilet to be separated better other than a curtain."
