Lapland Hotel Oulu has an excellent location on a quiet side street in the city center, only 700 meters from the railway station and the market square and 200 meters from the town hall. Franzen Park and Oulu Cathedral are situated next to the hotel.
Rooms are very cozy and stylish. I loved the Lappish style. Air-conditioning is self adjustable. We had a small, silent refrigerator in our room. Many rooms with a balcony have an indoor balcony with view to the restaurant of the hotel.
Breakfast in this hotel is more than excellent. They have all the usual foods but also several local specialties including salmon, Finnish squeaky cheese (bread cheese), dried cranberries, cloudberry jam, beetroot hummus, buckwheat cereals, Lappish honey, sour milk cake, cinnamon buns, rhubarb smoothie etc. I especially loved green smoothie made of apples, spinach and spruce roots.
