We just stayed 1 night so we weren't looking for a spectacular hotel. However, for the cost we expected more than what we got. The location and complimentary breakfast options were very good. The staff could have been a bit more friendly and the hotel definitely needs an upgrade. Especially in the rooms like the beds and showers.

Excellent location, felt safe. Was clean, warm, cosy, and friendly helpful staff. Would definitely recommend. A little dated but part of its history ( pictures of how it looked many years ago on walls) and feature. Everything we needed as a base

Good service but poor hardware.
The staff were friendly and the room was spacious. However there are a lot of rooms that are not accessible by lift, and very often tourists had to carry their luggage’s up and down the long staircases, which is very often not easy to do. So be careful when selecting this hotel - if you’re travelling with wheelchairs or heavy luggages, maybe another hotel would be better. If not, Scandic Polar is perfect.

Lapland stay
I did not stay at the scandic polar as it was closed. I stay at the scandic pohanjovi instead. This was a more picturesque . Location perfect with busses stopping outside. Also on new yeats eve , i did not have to go outside . This is a four star hotel. It has a pool and sauna. I did not use either mainly because of covid and i was outside most of tbe time.

Friendly service and a bowl of candy with a hand written/drawn card in the room as a welcome gift made up for otherwise worn down and outdated hotel.

Good location but old hotel
The hotel is old and dated. But beds were comfortable. If you are looking just to sleep and have no need of other amenities, then this hotel would do. On the plus side, the location is very good.
