- Konstantinos (9/5): -
- Minna (7/5): -
- Jennifer (10/5): It is a great value for the price ! - It was nice and clean!
- Derick (7/5): Room not hot enough - Location The room is not hot enough
- Floriana (9/5): Tutto bene - L hotel è molto carino tutti i comfort vicini al centro L’unica pecca è che il check in abbiamo dovuto farlo in un altro albergo a 10 minuti a piedi e con quel freddo è difficile camminare con le valigie
- Calascibetta (9/5): soggiorno con amici - Posizione ottima vicino al centro.
Staff eccezionale
Lo consiglio nulla
- judith (6/5): - Prima bed Geen receptie en alles gedateerd
- pacheco (10/5): Amei - Amei o hotel. Confortável. Funcionários muito atenciosos e comprometidos a te ajudar. Com certeza indico, muito seguro para mulheres viajando sozinha. Tem uma cozinha pra quem quiser gastar menos e cozinhar no hotel. Ferro e mesa para passar roupa. Eu amei. Levo boas lembranças do hotel e dessa cidade tão gentil e linda. .
- Esko (6/5): -
- Konrad (7/5): - Przy zameldowaniu w pokoju było okropnie duszno pomimo temperatury 10 stopni na zewnątrz.
- Mika (8/5): -
- Honkamäki (8/5): - Siisti huone ja ympäristö. Huoneessa ei kaikki sähköpistokkeet toimineet. Mikroaaltouuni ois ollut hyvä.
- Mattia (1/5): -
- Achim (2/5): 3 Sterne im Land der Phantasie - W-Lan funktioniert Zimmer werden nur alle drei Tage gereinigt, Handtücher nur nach vorheriger Anfrage. Fällt einem das abends erst nach einer Tagestour auf, bekommt man bei einem Telefonat nur die Antwort, dass man da auch nichts dran ändern könne. Eine diesbezügliche Notiz, sowie einen Hinweis beim Check in gibt es jedenfalls nicht. Da ist es doch auffällig dass die Rezeption im 800 m entfernten Hotel Santa Claus ist (Ein Schelm wer Böses dabei denkt). Zieht man den Zustand des Bades in Betracht so ist das nur die Kirsche auf der Torte.:
-Ein Loch in der Wand, das mit Kreppband verschlossen wurde
-Ein Duschvorhang der an der unteren Naht rötlich verfärbt ist
-Ein dreckiger Spiegel im Eingangsbereich
-Eine Toilette mit Urinstein und vergilbtem Sitz
-Stockige Silikonfugen
...
Aber es gibt ja zur Ablenkung einen Fernseher bei dem der Ton nach 5 Minuten nicht mehr funktioniert. Oder den Kühlschrank der bei maximaler Einstellung und funktionierender Innenbeleuchtung wärmer ist als Raumtemperatur. Wie jeder guter Vortrag endet auch dieser mit etwas positivem; das W-Lan war stabil und der Wasserkocher funktionierte.
Abschließend gebe ich einen Stern, wobei das nicht als Hotelkategorie gesehen werden darf (das wäre noch zu hoch gegriffen).
- Michele (5/5): -
- Ainhoa (9/5): - Lo céntrico y cómodo que es Que haya que ir a hacer el checkin a otro lugar y no en el propio hotel
- Raul (8/5): - Al final dormimos en el hotel Santa en vez de rudolph es un buen hotel y está justo en el centro .
Las habitaciones modernas y muy cómodas.
El desayuno muy completo y variado .
Sin duda volvería y lo recomiendo a todo el mundo tambhice uso del aparcamiento eran plazas grandes y cómodas de usar.
- juana (10/5): -
- Pfeil (8/5): -
- Albert (9/5): -
- Ulrike (5/5): - Lag noch zentral in der Stadt ist aber eher Jugendherberge als Hotel. Sehr kleine Zimmer, Betten leider sehr durchgelegen. Zimmer war nicht richtig gereinigt, Flecken auf dem Tisch und unter dem Tisch, alles etwas abgewohnt. Der Preis war nicht gerechtfertigt, sehr schade.
- Daiki (6/5): -
- bardelli massimo (7/5): -
- Chantal (5/5): - Okay for one night before flying out of Rovaniemi.
- Mark (3/5): Get what you pay for - Price was good No temperature control!! Rooms are way too hot. Uncomfortably so and its winter!!
- Anna (7/5): Bezahlbare Unterkunft - Eine der bezahlbaren Unterkünfte in der Stadt. Das Zimmer wirkte sehr zusammengewürfelt, die Sauna wurde nicht warm und die Schlüssel mussten 600m weiter abgeholt werden.
- Nay Chi Soe (9/5): - Clean and place No reception
- MARIANNE (9/5): - Har tidigare bott på detta hotell och det har allt man behöver. Hotellet erbjuder inte frukost men då man har möjlighet till att koka vatten till en kopp kaffe eller te och att det finns kylskåp där man kan förvara mat man köper är verkligen bra.
- Hanna (8/5): - En ottanut aamiaista Ei tule mieleen. Olen ollut aikaisemmin, joten tiesin mitä saan!
- pekkarinen (8/5): -
- André (4/5): - Good location. Very central The room was extremely hot. Only option was to open windows which made also extremely noisy.
- Jaana (8/5): R - Huone oli siisti ja peti pihdas. Kuuma oli. Hiljaista, ei melua mistään. Suihku ja wc huoneessa. Altaan hana huono. Lyhyeen käyntiin ja vain nukkumiseen edullisempi riittävä vaihtoehto. Keskustaan suora lyhyt matka. Edullinen hyvä aamupalan sai ostaa "Päähotellists" Santasta.
- Tudegård (5/5): -
- Paweł (5/5): Przyzwoity standard w upale. - Śniadania nie było - można je było dokupić i zjeść w innym (głównym) budynku.
Dobry rozkład pomieszczenia. Wygodne łóżka. Czajnik i suszarka.
Jesli ktoś potrzebuje - ma do dyspozycji kuchnię w piwnicy hotelu.
Darmowy parking za budynkiem. Zepsuty kontakt koło biurka.
Łazienka wymaga odświeżenia (remontu) - spłuczka, baterie!
Meldunek w innym budynku kilka ulic dalej (zaskoczenie).
Niemożebny upał - ale to kwestia nietypowych warunków pogodowych roku 2025 w lipcu. Wentylatorek to za mało.
Generalnie: to zdecydowanie nie jest obiekt trzygwiazdkowy, jak figuruje w Booking.
- Elin (10/5): Fra natt til dag :-) - Var ikke klar over at opprinnelig bestilling var på et ubetjent hotell, betjeningen på Santa’s løste derpå en utmerket måte
- Krister (8/5): Rollo - Vaatimaton mutta edullinen majoitus. Huone-avain pitää noutaa 700m päästä, missä on myös aamiainen.
- Maja (7/5): Nothing spectacular, but OK for a one night stay. Clean and good enough. - It is OK for a one night stay. Nothing special, but then again, we are travelling with motorcycles and don't need much comodity. It is more important that the room is clean and it has a normal shower, which this one for sure has. The check in process takes place in another hotel Santa Claus, so this means you need to go to another location to do this and receive the keys. Plus, at the check in you could have all forms filled in automatically from booking, not that the customer needs to write everything down.
- Jorma (6/5): - Television ääni ei toiminut, ei kuulunut ääni ? Huono sänky.
- Julia (10/5): - Beautiful spacious, quiet and warm room.
There is even a sauna in the bathroom!
Staff at Santa Claus hotel is very friendly.
The walk takes about 10mins from Santa Claus hotel where you get the keys to Hotel Rudolf.
Room as a perfectly clean water kettle, offers coffee and tea, hairdryer and TV with many Channels.
We stayed there twice within 1 week and everything was wonderful.
Would come again any time!
- Eshan (8/5): - Little inconvenient but good value for money as everything else is sky rocketing in pricing.
- Timo (8/5): - Oli helppo löytää ja kaikkinpalvelut lähellä.
- Joachim (2/5): - Nicht wieder dort übernachten
- Irving (8/5): - Como tal es buena la propiedad, sin embargo el hecho de tener que hacer check in en otro hotel y después tener que caminar 700 metros con tus maletas, cosa que no se menciona hasta después de la reserva, resta puntos buenos
- Wai'oli (10/5): - Stayed 2 nights. Room was comfortable and it was a very quiet area which we liked. You do have to walk/taxi it to here from the main Santa Claus hotel where you check in. Taxi was easier for us since it was snowing and we had luggages. No complaints. Walking to and from the main shopping area was okay, if you have mobility issues it might not be the best place to stay, but other than that it’s a good place to stay!
- Madonna (8/5): - I’m satisfied with my stay at Sant’s Rudolf hotel. The only thing I wish that the check-in not separate buildings. It’s hard if you have multiple luggages especially when the snow is thick. I’m glad that I read before and even messaged the property. I appreciated my taxi driver for being patient and waited for me to check-in and dropped me off to my actual hotel. Other than that, I slept good. I felt safe. The placed closed to bus station, restaurants and shopping center.
- KEITARO (6/5): - 多少設備が古かったが、問題なく過ごせた。
- Isaura (6/5): Pleasant - The location The Rudolf Hotel is on the top of a Chinese restaurant. All the food smells go to the hotel.
To enter on Hotel Rudolf, you need to walk almost a mile with your luggage to reach Santa's Hotel to make the check-in and pick up the keys. (Nobody told me this before).
- Jacob (8/5): Very good -
- Kamil (5/5): Passable -
- Anneli (8/5): Oiva yöpymispaikka kohtuuhinnalla - Täytti tarpeeni yöpymispaikkana. Aamiaisen joutui tosin järjestämään itse. Saunakin olisi huoneessa ollut tarjolla, mutta tällä kertaa emme käyttäneet.
- Alison (6/5): Pleasant -
- Takashi (6/5): - チェックインをする場所が、徒歩で10分くらいと離れています。少し不便を感じました。
- Thalja (8/5): Very good -
- Kyle (2/5): - Go elsewhere
- Adam (7/5): Good - Very quiet place. I didn't know beforehand that there is no reception at the hotel
- Radihd (10/5): - Excelente alojamiento
- Elina (6/5): - Huone oli pieni, mutta riittävä. Tyyny olisi saanut olla tukevampi. Huone oli todella lämmin, vaikka patteri ei ollut päällä. Kovasta pakkasesta huolimatta oli pakko tuulettaa, että sain nukuttua. Muuten oikein riittävä ja toimiva. Avainten luovutus ja muukin palvelu toisessa hotellissa oli oikein toimivaa.
- Sharon (3/5): Basic - Very basic room. Room is old and creepy. Toilet is noisy. Hotel is deem and bed slumpy.
- Valentin (6/5): Mauvais rapport qualité prix - Bon hôtel, mais très cher pour une seul nuit, confort légé, et chambre un peu vieille..
a fait l’affaire mais pas un bon rapport qualité prix ( 200 euros la nuit sans petit dej )
- Alessia (8/5): Nice and comfortable stay. - Great location, we arrived by car, checked in to the other hotel, as they clearly said in several messages. They gave us a parking pass to the parking behind the hotel. Room was nice and clean.
Kettle, coffee and tea available in the room. Careful when using the lift, as the doors close very quickly, you don't have the time for two people to exit or enter the lift. Keep the 'open door' button pressed.
- Harutoshi (8/5): - チェックイン&朝食会場施設と宿泊ホテルの距離が徒歩15分というネック以外は非常にコストパフォーマンスに優れたホテルだと思います。室内も暖かくシャワーの水圧もよく綺麗でした。朝食もフィンランドの様々な郷土料理を楽しめてとても良かったです。
- Li (7/5): Good -
- Lesley (6/5): Very basic room but excellent location - The location was amazing. The room was very basic, and there was a weird smell in the room.
- Yong (8/5): Very good - Very good service attitude and high cost performance Need to go to the designated counter to check in.
- Wayne (8/5): Very good -
- Wing Kin (4/5): - This is a hostel not a hotel
- Isabella (8/5): Very good -
- maurizio (10/5): - Ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo. Hotel Santa Claus dove fai check in… ti permette di parcheggiare le valigie, anche dopo il check out…
- Miroslava (10/5): - Very nice little place .Walkable to a lot of places.
Clean.
- Ana (7/5): Good - Clean, hot water all the time, comfortable temperature in the room Cushion and beds not so comfortable. They don’t provide you transportation between checkin location and room location. You are on your own and even if its 800 m away you need to consider the snow condition and luggage you need to carry on. No conditioner in bath and no window. Not enough room space for a family of 3. No breakfast available at location. Too expensive for facilities they provide
- Om (1/5): Horrible - Nothing Everything
- Janne (4/5): - Kirjaantuminen eri puolella keskustaa toisessa hotellissa kuin itse majoitus.
Aamiainen eri puolella keskustaa toisessa hotellissa
- Adam (1/5): Very let down with the accommodation no value for - Location was good . Was very expensive for what was on offer the hotel check in point was good 10 minute walk from actually hotel which with young family is not ideal. The building its self was no good for family’s it was like a doss house or place they would send all unemployed. Also the beds were horrible it was has if they had mattress toppers instead of actual mattress . The bathroom had very odd smell. Definitely would not return or recommend.
- Marek (8/5): Visiting Santa Clause - Good place for a short rest.
- Paul (4/5): - Arrived at Santa’s hotel then have to walk approximately 700 meters up to the hotel. It looks like old office rooms or a hostel that has been converted into a hotel. The room was clean but very small no food or drink available at this hotel apart from a vending machine. I will say though that the room was very clean. Ok for backpackers but unfortunately not for us.
- Viet Tuan (4/5): - No room service until I asked for it. I stayed 7 nights and they made the room once. The room was not comfortable as it looks on the website.
- ramesh (6/5): - No reception at the property
- Ruth (4/5): NEGATIVE if there's a negative RATE!!!!!!!!!!!! - Location was ALSO BS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was REALLY BS checking in a different hotel ( your sister hotel) & getting the hotel & room keys when we were ALREADY in front of Santas' Hotel Rudolf!!!!!! WHAT KIND OF HOTEL DOES THAT?????? WHAT IF I WAS WITH MY NEWPHEWS & NIECE??????? Do they have to wait OUTSIDE the hotel while I walked to your sister hotel to check us in & get the keys????? YOU SHOULD HAVE SOLD THE HOTEL IF YOU CANNOT MANAGE IT!!!!!! Also, WHY DON'T YOU PUT IT AS Air B & B instead of HOTEL @ booking.com??????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- Edward (10/5): Exceptional -
- Sari (6/5): - Huone oli siisti. Ihan hyvä kahdelle aikuiselle. Pöytätuuletin oli onneksi joka oli yön päällä. Tosi kuuma huone. Lyhyt kävely matka keskustaan.
- Verified traveler (4/5): チェックインは少し離れた別のホテルです - レセプションは無く、チェックインする場所は少し離れた別のホテルです。車利用で無ければお勧め出来ません。
部屋のゴミ箱にゴミが残っていました。気持ち悪いです。
- Satu (6/5): Ihan ok yhdeksi yöksi - Sijainti ostoskeskuksen vieressä mainio, ilmainen parkki. Huone oli siisti mutta kuuma, vaikka ulkona viileä.
- Dietbert (8/5): - Das Zimmer ist praktisch aber einfach eingerichtet: Kühlschrank, Kaffekocher, Mikrowelle. Betten sehr bequem.
Alles ist fußläufig zu erreichen. 6 Fußminuten zur Fußgängerzone.
- Hu (6/5): 10 min walk to the main city area + check in - The room was quite small and the location wasn’t as convenient especially when it’s snowing. It’s like a 10 min walk to the check in hotel. But they do let you store luggage are the check in spot and let me check in early once the room was ready, which was nice!
- Ali (6/5): Pleasant -
- Rikke (6/5): Clean rooms and close to city center - The room was clean, and the bed was good. The hotel is close to a large shopping mall and 5 min. walk to the city center.
If you are just looking for a bed and a shower, this is convenient, as there are no services (like a bar and restaurant) at the hotel. Next door, however, there is a Chinese restaurant. You can get breakfast at Santa's Hotels Santa Claus, a 10 minute walk from the hotel. This breakfast is 14 euros.
Please be aware that you need to pick up the key at the Santas Hotel, a 10-minute walk away. Upon arrival, this was a little unclear to me. So, go there first, so you don't need to go back and forth.
I forgot my gloves at the hotel, and the employees were very helpful in sending them to me. This was great!
The hotel was a bit expensive compared to the standard, but Rovaniemi is a costly city overall. Be aware of that also when planning a visit.
- Masud (8/5): - It does not have a reception. Otherwise, most of the items are pretty good!
- Odd-arne (6/5): Pleasant -
- Petra (6/5): - Naapuri-huoneen keskustelu kuului myöhäiseen iltaan saakka huoneeseen.Ei ole mukavaa jos aikoo levähtää ja nukkua.
- Mihai-denis (7/5): Ok - Very worm room Could do with a fan in bathroom.
- Ethan (10/5): Exceptional -
- Chanid (10/5): Exceptional -
- Aleksander (9/5): Superb - Very good hotel, comfortable bed, varied breakfast, fully recommendable.
- Tzu (7/5): Good -
- Annina (10/5): Exceptional - It’s was the cheapest option available (close enough to walk to rovaniemi) and honestly I wasn’t expecting such a good room. The room is very comfortable, the shower is great and everything very clean. It’s a 5 min walk from the center of the city.
- Kiril (7/5): very simple accommodation, too expensive for what you actually get, relatively central -
- Eduardo (6/5): Ni fú ni fá. - Estuvimos 4 noches, pues no fueron ni una vez a limpiar la habitación, ni siquiera a cambiar las toallas, a parte de eso, la entrada se hace en otro hotel, el Santa Claus, que está a 700 metros, como algo positivo, en la planta menos uno, hay una pequeña cocina, frigorífico, microondas, tostadora, para prepararte ahí tú comida si quieres.
- Jose (8/5): - Para el precio esta buano
- NICOLA (4/5): - Camera non rifatta per 4 giorni. Posizione ok
