This is probably the better ones out of Holiday inn and Radisson. Location is good with walking distance to all the restaurants. Wifi is free, rooms are decent sized and restaurant and bar dowstairs is resonabley priced. more

I was in Scandic Oulu during a one-week business trip. The room was very big and comfortable, with tea/coffee facilities and free wireless internet access. The key card is made of wood and hygienic bags are made of paper (really ecological!). It also has sauna, but I didn't have time to try it. The only problem I saw is that... more

We usually spend one night in Oulu on our way to or from Lapland. We chose the Scandic because there were no more rooms of our liking at the Arina and Scandic said that there are no noisy restaurants in the area. The room was nice, clean and airy. Large enough for our family of four. The breakfast was okay,... more

This hotel had just about everything one could expect from a four-star classification - very generous breakfast buffet with both Finnish and international selection, very central location within Oulu, modern design rooms, etc. What tips the balance in its favour, however, are the little things such as complimentary use of sauna and internet access. For someone away from home for... more

I stayed at this hotel in Jan 08 for one night whilst visiting Nokia Siemens Networks. I arrived late (around 9pm) in the evening so did not use the restaurant or bar, but the room was very clean and tidy and modern. This hotel is what other hotels should be judge themselves by with friendly staff. No problems whatsoever and... more

Stayed in the Scandic just after it opened & again late December. Well situated Hotel near the centre of Oulu and also close to the market place & water front. Reception area fairly open & bright. Corridors to bedrooms a bit disappointing in terms of aesthetics, but rooms themselves fine. Spacious enough, comfortable beds, decor OK, room temperature perfect. High... more

This recently opened hotel in Oulu follows closely the offerings of other Scandic hotels in Finland. You get a good breakfast, free wireless internet, and a decent room. If you arrive by air, the hotel is easy to get to by taking bus number 19, getting off at Saaristonkatu, and walking toward the water. I didn't spend much time in... more

We stayed one night at this hotel, we chose it because it had just opened (only a week old at that time!). Everything was therefore new and working well: comfy beds, flat tv, etc. The room was maybe a bit characterless, but I liked it anyway. The bathroom could have been a bit bigger. Breakfast also ok. However, the evening... more
