More about this place
Arctic City Hotel offers a central Rovaniemi alternative with compact classic rooms and larger junior suites. It suits travellers who prefer town services and restaurants around the hotel, using booked transport for outlying snow experiences.
The family-owned hotel has two restaurants and includes breakfast in its stated room offer. Parking and charging facilities add flexibility for a hired car, while the central setting suits city dining and excursion pickups. It is a town hotel rather than a secluded sky-view cabin, so plan a separate outing for darker Northern Lights conditions.
