5 Stars for Kajanus Hotel – Outstanding Service with a Heart!||Kajanus Hotel truly offers the best service imaginable. You won’t find warmer, more genuine people anywhere. I especially want to highlight one person – Niko at the reception. He’s the reason this is a solid ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ experience.||We were planning to go into the wilderness on Sunday to see brown bears and wolves in their natural habitat. Unfortunately, it was 200 km further north from where we were staying, in an area without public transport unless you have your own car.||This morning, I was heartbroken because it seemed like my dream was slipping away. Neither of us could drive, so it felt hopeless.||But then… Niko, the young receptionist – a guy in his 20s – offered to spend his entire Sunday driving us there and back so we could still experience this once-in-a-lifetime nature event in the Finnish wilderness.|We saw bears thanks to our hero! ||That is true service. And more importantly, that is the act of a truly good human being. 🇫🇮||The hotel itself is charmingly 70s and may not be the most modern in design, but the heart and soul of this place make it first class. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️||The staff here aren’t just employees – they’re the ones who make your stay feel like a true luxury experience from start to finish. ||I will definitely...

Read moreThe hotel and restaurant facility is great. The hotel is nice, friendly staff, with clean rooms. The breakfast buffet is excellent, with great morning options. The restaurant has a small but tasty selection for dinner. The bar has a reasonable selection at reasonable prices for the area. ||The swimming pool facility are available for a small fee (7.40 EUR), with a direct entrance from inside the hotel. ||The staff were very friendly and the location is a very short walk across the bridge into Kajaani city center. ||The only down side was the gym. It is supposed to be accessible via an app with a code given by the hotel. The app was absolutely useless in English - no functionality at all. The front desk staff tried to help get it to work in the Finnish language version, but even they couldn’t get it sorted out for me. No access, so basically no gym facilities. This was the only critique for the...
