“Scandic Polar occupies a central location in Rovaniemi, making it easy to explore the city's attractions. While some might find the furnishings a bit dated, the hotel compensates with a generous breakfast and cheerful service. I think the real draw here is the on-site pub, Pisto, which offers a glimpse into a more authentic side of Rovaniemi.”
