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!
