Very warm welcome at the reception, superb room with all the equipment you need while travelling and very good food too. Would recommend this hotel to everyone any time. Well, maybe one thing, accessibility and parking with a tourist coach is a bit tricky as while loading you block one lane from the street and parking is not too near. The parking part is fine with me as I like to have a walk after a long day of driving but for some it can be a problem as parking is about 500m away.

The renovation of this centrally located legendary Oulu hotel is almost complete. The rooms have been refurbished in the ambiance of bright summer nights, the scent of tar, and the wild salmon. On the top 7th floor are two suites with saunas and large balconies overlooking the Rotuaari pedestrian street. In August 2018, we stayed in the same suite #709. Now only the balcony was the same. The interior has been completely revamped. The suite felt more spacious and had a very stylish decor. The other suite #710 has a bigger living room with a dining table for six. The suite was very well equipped. There was everything you could imagine to need starting from the sauna scent. Also, we have never seen such a modern Nespresso machine. In 2018, we paid exactly the same price 214 euros. It was a prepaid Summer Deal then. Now it was a Black Friday sale with flexible rates because of the COVID. My only complaint is the breakfast that was very average. It is served on the 3rd floor in a separate space. All egg dishes (boiled and scrambled) were finished. On departure, we noticed that they were replenished but that was too late for us.

Stayed one night on the way up north. Arina is located in the middle of Oulu. Silent and clean renowated room, exellent bead and breakfast. What else do you need? Garage is quite small and cramped and difficult to find the entrance. Recommend.

The room temperature was set max 20 degrees Celsius. The breakfast was time limited 30min And had To choose a time in advance. The service at front desk was not very kind And the price was higher than in the reservation. Also had To sign a contract with what they can charge me extra if there was something taken/missing from the room, Never had such experience before.

Returning to Oulu for the first time in 3 years for the Irish Festival, I decided to treat myself to a week at this hotel. It is in such a great location, and the room was very comfortable and well kitted out. I was particularly impressed with the way the lights worked: generally, everywhere you go in the world, on retiring to bed you end up turning all the lights in the room off and on and off again before you get it right! Even better was the sensor in the bathroom (once you reach a certain age, night-time trips are de rigeur) which turned on low level lighting, which stayed on long enough to prevent stubbed toes on the way back to bed! The breakfast selection was great, and in a lovely bright breakfast room (it got very busy at times): I loved the puuro, and the quirky selection of mugs to choose from was nice. I thoroughly enjoyed my two trips to the sauna, and now really want to try an authentic smoke sauna, as recommended by a lady I met in there! I also approve of the absence of automatic cleaning service every day: you just need to remember to ask in time the night before! The bed was super-comfy and the pillows also very good. The only downside for me was that I could hear clothes hangers being rattled on the rails in the room next door, as the sound-proofing between rooms wasn't that great. Likewise, they'd have heard mine.

Lovely, modern, clean hotel! Perfect location, comfy beds and quiet rooms. Wonderful breakfast buffet. Really pleasant stay in all aspects. Nice theme throughout the hotel and attention to detail in the hallway carpets, little notes left here and there, excellent service!

Very warm and friendly reception. Special treat to our doc. Also breakfast eas very good. These were the reasons for our second visit to this hotel. We parked our car in the street as the height of parking hall was only 2 meters. The only thing that bothered us was the noisy air conditioning in the room.

Had a wonderful staycation. Hardly anything negative to say: the check-in was quick and we were given few room options to choose from (which was very nice), rooms were given a beautiful face-lift, the staff was friendly, and the room was quiet so we got to sleep peacefully. The breakfast was quite basic but tasted good. There could have been some high quality teas available for instance.
