Reviews for Best Western Hotel Apollo

Review 1:I did not like the minibar, it wasn't fill up with useful things and the prices were too high

Review 2:I liked the room, wide and with sauna :) The bed was really comfortable and wide, and I loved the mirrors everywhere ;)

Review 3:Hotel staff was ok, the location is good, but it was really nothing special. The bathroom was tiny and the room pretty small, you'd expect something better for almost 90e/night.

Review 4:wish had some more space in the room. However, the friendliness of the hotel staff and the way it is arranged compensates for everything which might be an inconvenience

Review 5:Staff is very helpful and friendly 11/10 :) Highly recommended for stay in Oulu. Good price

Review 6:Rooms very small - shower is practically in the toilet. No room for 2 bags. Pillows really uncomfortable - ended up with neck aches for the both of us.

Review 7:Short walk from the station, so quite convenient. We had a quiet room. Breakfast was good. Wifi ok. You get what you pay for.

Review 8:no ,nothing

Review 9:very friendly staff great breakfast great service to have coffee/thee free available during the day (nice home coming after work) atmosphere of my (business) room sauna in room

Review 11:Friendly staff and excellent breakfast. Nice touch was the possibility to have a small, en-suite sauna even in the budget rooms.

Review 12:my second time in the hotel. The quality of the rooms varies a lot. First time the room was superb, now a quite tired and in need of renovation.

Review 13:Breakfast is really good. Location, too. Nice to havee free coffee and newspapers in the restaurant.

Review 14:Excellent situation - less than 5 minutes to the railway station and to the center of Oulu. Frendly and ready to help staff. Really very comfortable king-size bed. Sauna in the room. High-quality breakfast with a various of the dishes. Free hot and cold beverages for 24 hours. Free parking.

Review 15:Some noise from the road when your room faces it.

Review 16:Good location, nice comfy beds, and they managed to squeeze a sauna into the bathroom. Good breakfast buffet and they had decaffeinated coffee :) Free coffee and pastries in the afternoon.

Review 17:Aamiaisella ei kukaan töninyt vaan sai nauttia rauhallisessa siistissä ympäristössä aamun, vaikka hotelli oli täynnä. Eikä likaisia pöytiä ja astioita lojunut pöydillä. Aamiainen loistava ja palvelu erinomaista. Suosittelen lämpimästi.

Review 18:Noise from the street is sometimes a bit too much. Bed is not good for my style, too soft.

Review 19:Price is reasonable and location near to the city. Breakfast is OK for that price.

Review 20:I woke up at 1:46 in the morning believing that there was a party near my room. It was the karaoke bar of the hotel. The hotel is not recommended for people expected silent rooms. I stayd at 3rd floor

Review 21:very nice beds . Ok breakfast

Review 22:What's not to like?

Review 23:Very helpful staff. A very well organized and clean hotel. Good location, and reasonably priced. Even the karaoke bar (oldest in Finland) was entertaining rather than being tacky or disruptive and Johana and the bar staff did a great job in organizing the nightly party

Review 24:Internet kept turning off randomly so it was kind of annoying to keep reconnecting, although not a big deal. Elevator goes to the 4th floor but two staircases from the 4th to the 5th which was difficult with my heavy bags.

Review 25:The man at the front desk was very accommodating. I appreciate the excellent customer service I was given during my one night stay. Room was very clean and cozy, although quite small. On the 5th floor so it was a quiet room. Was able to check in earlier than time suggested on reservation. Literally right down the road from railway station. Free internet connection. Coffee and tea available all day in restaurant downstairs. Overall I enjoyed my stay and wish I could have stayed more than one night.

Review 28:The hotel appears outdated from the outside but the accommodations were really very good.

Breakfast was very good and all staff were very friendly.

Review 100:Many international TV channels, fast internet for free, good breakfast, car parking for free, central location (about 10 minutes walking)

Review 101:My shower leaked because the shower tray had lots of cracks in it, so the bathroom flooded every time I showered. I told the cleaners and reception yet nothing was done about it. My room was on the 5th floor and the lift only went up to the 4th floor which was fine most of the time. However it would have been nice if someone could have offered to help me with my suitcase and bags as I was on my own and my suitcase was really heavy.

The girl Ulla working by breakfast buffet was very sweet anh helpful, by reception everybody was really good and kind. It was easy access to come in to hotel, which was important for me with my broken leg. In the afternoon it was coffee-tee-fruits etc. available in the brakfast restaurant. Really a nice hotel!

Review 104:Terrible noice from outside the whole night long. On the opposite side was a music bar, open until early hours, people standing and shouting outside.

Review 105:Smallest small room, but well equipped, well used space.

Review 106:Good value for a room with sauna. Staff was really nice. Room was very clean, well designed and comfortable. The hotel location couldn't be better, it is just next to everything.

Review 107:Twin room was small, although it did contain the sauna, as described. Wegot in after 5pm, so no parking was available, so we had to park in thestreet. Request for parking, made in mid May, could not be accommodatedPoor breakfast, although there was a Nespresso machine for coffee. city was dead after 8pm, and it was difficult to find a restaurant that was open.
