We stayed for one night on our road trip from Finland to Norway (Oulu was a perfect stop between Helsinki and Norway). We chose this hotel based on other trip adviser reviews.

The room was clean and the receptionist was friendly and helpful. We got to choose a view of the river or a view of the hotel yard, we chose the river view (chose the view of the river if you get a chance).

They had the customer's safeness in mind; hand sanitizers everywhere and in breakfast every other table was off limit (or it was told to the guests to keep this in mind). There where rubber gloves to use of taking coffee and beverages, but unfortunatelly i didn't see anyone using them (only me and my boyfriend...even if there was signes and instructions but nobody cared except for us and the staff). I think the signs with instructions should be clearer or with a bigger font. The staff was friendy and wishes us a good morning.

We had a room including breakfast.

All in all, a good hotel near Oulu center with a pretty park to walk through to get to the center.

This hotel is an attraction as it is a remodeled hospital. The staff is extremely nice and speak excellent English (among other languages). The surroundings are very beautiful and one can take a bike and pedal to a huge natural park and zip to the city center. The rooms are a bit hard to access since they are located in a different building from the lobby. There is an excellent restaurant for buffet style breakfast and lunch. One can also get coffee, pastries or drinks with extended hours.

Hotel is located within 20 min. walking distance from centre, near river and beautiful white bridges park. Rooms are decent size, with good size bathroom. Rooms in old red bricks building have really high ceilings and big windows. Free access to sauna. Good choice at breakfast.
