After a day in the snow, you can unwind with a chilled drink or a warming coffee at the hotel bar, which offers great views of the bustling street outside.

Pools and Spa

You can enjoy a quintessential Finnish experience in the traditional saunas. There are separate saunas for men and women available every evening, providing the perfect way to warm up after a day of husky sledding or sightseeing. Some of the premium rooms even feature their own private sauna for your exclusive use. Please note that the use of the sauna and fitness facilities may be subject to charges locally.

Sport and Entertainment

You can maintain your fitness routine in the modern gym, which is well-equipped with free weights and cardio machines. The hotel's central location is its biggest entertainment perk; you are perfectly placed to join safari departures or take a short stroll to the riverbank for a quiet evening walk under the stars. In the winter months, the nearby Lordi’s Square often hosts seasonal events and ice sculptures that you can explore at your own pace. The lobby also offers a cosy space to relax with a book or chat about your day's discoveries.

Family Amenities

Families will find a welcoming environment with a dedicated play corner to keep the children busy while you check in. Kids will love the breakfast selection, which includes plenty of pancakes and healthy options.
