Wonderful, new, clean. Wonderful breakfast and atmosphere. Very comforting when far from home. Large balcony. Very eco friendly, good food, very convenient to ski slope and Sotkamo. Very convenient to athletic facilities. Request a suite for more than 2 people.

Nce small hotel next to the skiing resort

We stayed one night at Hotel Aateli on our way to Northern Finland. The stay was perfect - the room was very comfortable (especially liked the bed and the details of the decor). We also had dinner at Ainoa restaurant, and the food was delicious. Also breakfast was superb and was included in the price. We booked their small spa just for our own private use and this was a true gem; I loved the sauna and the small pool. It was really nice to relax there after and before long drives. We also were given the opportunity to keep the room a bit longer than normally. Parking is at the front of the hotel and you can easily walk to the skiing resort, which is next to the hotel. Only thing that could be possibly improved was the lack of parking space - we came early enough to get the last spot, but the people coming after us had to park outside the parking area. Overall we had a really nice stay, wish we could have stayed longer!

Rentouttava viikonloppu rinteen juurella

Mahtava paikka, varasimme sviitin saunalla ja huone oli erittäin tyylikäs ja juuri sellainen mitä kuvat antoivat ymmärtää. Sänky mukava nukkua. Varasimme Zen span illaksi joka kruunasi rentouttavan illan. Vahva suositus ihan kaikille, palvelu aivan omalla tasolla ja henkilökunta todella ystävällistä ja iloista. Polkupyörät käytössä jolla oli mukava kierrellä Vuokattia.

Loistava hotelli eikä edes kallis

Miinukset alkuun. Huoneen eteisen valo oli tosi ärsyttävä, välkkyi melkein koko ajan jos liikkui vähänkään huoneessa. Odotin myös että rinnehotellissa olisi näköala mutta se oli surkea. Huone ja hotelli oli kuitenkin todella hyvää tasoa, kuten myös aamupala joka kylläkin piti syödä toisessa hotellissa tähän aikaan vuodesta.
