Extremely helpful and kind staff running this hotel so remote from everything!

“Surprisingly good renovated rooms next to Kolari Railway Station”

My room was much better than I expected. It was renovated in 2019 and it looked like brand new although the building is historical. The fridge and the microwave oven of my room were good. My bathroom was large and clean. The breakfast buffet included high-quality products but the selection was quite limited. Porridge and bacon were served to the table. The hotel is located only 400 meters from Kolari Railway Station.

“Hotelli Kolari”

Room was fairly big, the restaurant are as a wonderful warm ambience. The staff was friendly.

“A cozy place!”

Such a lovely place! Very warm and cozy atmosphere! Good breakfast buffet. Very delicios dinner at the restaurant, really recommend to eat dinner there. Close to the railway station.

“Very good place to stay”

Nice hotel with really special dinning place. The room was very nice. We had an amazing vegan burger, with whole wheat bun and a salad next to it. Two days :)

“The host makes all the difference”

This place was more then i could ask for. Thank you so much maarit for your kind welcoming. I came very late for check in and maarit came to welcome me with late dinner. This made all the difference. Everything was perfect. I recommend this lovely place with all my heart.

“Bloodstained sheets.”

Location was excellent and the restaurant was lovely. Restaurant owner could not have been more helpful and friendly.

You can get a really good dinner in the restaurant and the breakfast is really good too.

“Watch out - you don't get what you pay for!”

I try to avoid unfavourable opinions. However, this time, I feel it is my duty to warn other travellers. Apart from a few minor issues, there is one impartant thing: the hotel is advertised as air conditioned - IT IS A LIE. There is no air conditioning in the rooms. There are two types of rooms available and I chose the more expensive one with 'air conditioning'. When we entered the room (number 130), we were welcomed by some mosquitos and it was boiling hot inside. I started looking for an A/C switch which unfortunately I did not find. I could not talk to anybody about it as there was no one at the reception after 8. There were some small fans in the corridor, so I took three of them inside, which made no difference to the temperature and stuffiness. There was somthing they proudly advertise as mosquito net. Actually it's a narrow air hole protected by net next to the window. It was impossible to open the window due to the outside temperature as well as mosquitos. Needless to say, the night was a nightmare. The next morning I tried to talk to the lady at the reception/bar. She seemed not to understand the problem saying insolently the hotel had an air conditioning system. When I asked her to come to room 130 in order to show me where it was, she began saying I was the kind of person who is dissatisfied with everything. Well, I tried to explain the problem was about a dishonest piece of information about A/C, but as a result she put the amout of money in cash I'd paid for the room in front of me. Of course, I did not accept it. You may say A/C is not the most important thing, but if you take into account the fact the we had spent over 9 hours travelling from the north of Norway and there was another day of driving ahead of us, you should understand that what we needed was some hours of comfortable sleep. I also believe that when you run a business, you should do it in an honest way.
