I stayed one night as planned. I asked for a quiet room with the view over the river and that´s what I got. The view was really nice. Hotel in itself isn´t the most modern one, but it´s still nice and clean. Room was tidy and bathroom was renovated recently. Breakfast was moderate, selection was good and everything what I... More

We stayed here 19th-23rd dec 12 & went with thomsons. reps were really helpful. straight from the flight we were taken from to a warehouse to collect our thermals & listen to what excursions we could buy when all we wanted to do was get to the hotel but nevermind. I would take your own ski suit too as everyone... More

After 20 years I wanted to stay in this legendary hotel, but couldnt realize where the word legendary is coming. Of course the view is stunning in the morning sun and the location is nice. Also the reindeer meat with smashed potatoes is still a good choise, but the reception, rooms and nightclub are far from the standard of today.... More

Nice, high quality hotel. Room was quite spacious and had a great view just for the river and the bridge. On the other hand its located just down by the main street, so close to all the safari companies, restaurants and pubs. Staff was always helpful in getting information and even making some phone calls.

A large old hotel, set by the Kemijoki river, large windows with imperssive river view. Walking distance from Rovaniemi pedestrian mall. Also close to winter sports services Lapland Safaris. Very friendly and helpful staff, buffet style breakfast and supper with a lot of variety. Seems a bit "tired", especially the rooms in the annex above Lapland Safari offices. Some rooms... More

We reached the hotel as part of an organized tour in Lapland. We received rooms with beautiful views frozen river. Our room had a coffee kettle but we realized that not all the rooms have, so you need to check. Hotel has separate saunas for men and women so if you want to go with your partner, take a private...

We were dwelled in this hotel within the frame of a tour group. The room was large, luminous with TV and LAN connection but WiFi only against payment (2.50 Euros/24 hrs). The double-bed was utilated with a good mattress (required after the daily effort). The bathroom was good and we appreciated the under-the-floor heating. The breakfest and dinner were regular...

It's hard to put your finger on what is wrong with this place - it's in a great location, with incredible views out over the river from the restaurant and some of the rooms, but it could do with a complete overhaul. My room was comfortable enough, but not exceptionally so; perfectly clean, all fine, but the whole place just... More

This was my second stay at the Pohjanhovi, so I knew what to expect, though I did hope it had improved since my last visit. It hadn't changed much from what I remember. I find it hard to describe this hotel, on one hand it is clean, efficient and the location is quite good down by the river. On the... More
