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!

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!

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.

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.

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.

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.

Var ikke klar over at opprinnelig bestilling var på et ubetjent hotell, betjeningen på Santa’s løste derpå en utmerket måte

Vaatimaton mutta edullinen majoitus. Huone-avain pitää noutaa 700m päästä, missä on myös aamiainen.

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!

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

Oiva yöpymispaikka kohtuuhinnalla
Täytti tarpeeni yöpymispaikkana. Aamiaisen joutui tosin järjestämään itse. Saunakin olisi huoneessa ollut tarjolla, mutta tällä kertaa emme käyttäneet.
