We had booked a suite but got tired of waiting for room to enter. Because the cleaning took too long. The hotel reception could not tell when the room would be ready. So we moved to another hotel. From there I got an suite right away even though there was no reservation.

Hello! Thank you very much for your feedback. I'm truly sorry my response took too much time. The issue behind the delay in receiving the room on the day you tried to check in was very simple but also difficult and non solvable. Not just one but four of our housekeeping maids called in sick on that very morning. So the reason behind this failure was a lack of resources we could not handle with such a short notice. I am sorry and feel sad for this failure of ours and for the inconvenience this caused you. On the other hand I'm glad you found another suite to stay in so that your trip to Oulu was not a total disaster. Best regards, Juha

The room was not as cramped as some we've experienced in this franchise. Lots of space to store luggage and a safe to keep valuables out of sight. A lounge to relax was unexpected and appreciated. The bed was very comfortable, the power points near the bed to recharge our phones was good, it's surprising how often this isn't available in hotels and the bathroom was large and the shower pressure was good. The wifi for our visit was terrible but that can happen from time time. Parking under the hotel is good given the inner city location, the cost of using this garage is not included in your room price. The breakfast was very good. Staff were all very friendly and helpful. What would take this location from Very Good to Excellent would be maps and information in english. There was a map but it had no tourist information that we could read.…

Hello! Thank you for this nice and comprehensive review, I appreciate it. I'm happy to read your visit to our hotel went well and without any major nuisances. Some of our guests have told that our wifi connection did not work well during their stay. I've given it a thought and the only answer I can think of is a momentary heavy load on the network. That is because we accommodated a vast number of guests in July and most likely many of them logged on to our wifi. We will pay better attention to the maps and brochures available at our reception. Hopefully the world starts to get back to normal little by little so that more and more international guests could arrive also to Oulu. Thank you for visiting us and hope to see you soon again at Scandic! All the best and take care, Juha

I have traveled a lot in hotels and Scandic hotels especially. This was my second trip to Scandic Oulu City and like the first time there was nothing to complain about. The location is excellent right at the center of town. The rooms were clean and the family room had enough space for all of us. The staff was friendly and professional at the same time. Breakfast was excellent even with the special arrangement because of the pandemic. Also dinner was better than expected. I can easily recommend this to everyone coming to Oulu whether on a business or a pleasure trip.

The location was perfect! Clean and silent rooms with very comfortable beds. Walking distance everywhere in the city. The breakfast buffet was super big and good. Safety during the covid time was handled by booking the breakfast time for guests staying in the hotel. Parking conveniently under the hotel. Will come back!
