Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    The staff at Café Koti was very friendly. They even offer a free sauna session for one hour per day (females - males seperated) which was why I booked at this hostel. They also have a nice café downstairs which I couldn't use (because I had to leave very early) but it looks really welcoming!

    Arctic Heart is a lovely small hostel. It felt very familiar to be there and there was not so much noise around. I booked a single room and even it was small, my stay there was very relaxing. Thank you!

    The twin double room was very nice, modern and had enough space for two people traveling with a backpack. During the night it was very quite and not like you expect from as hostel. In the morning there was a good and very basic breakfast containing selfmade porridge and very tasty home-baked bread!

    Properly the best hostel I have ever stayed. I would like to rate 6 out of 5 stars. Plenty of showers and toilets, no need to queue at any time. The dorm is large enough. Clean and safe. Very Nice stuff. One extra star for the sauna!!

    Great location, only a few minutes walk from main streets. There is a good burger and pizza place just 3 mins walk away. There were loads of sleds available at the hotel for the kids to use which was great. Breakfast was good, plenty of choice and although it was busy, everything was kept replenished. We were in a modern room with bunk beds for the kids. The room was warm and comfortable, and plenty of space for 4 of us. There was a kettle with tea/coffee and a minibar.
