Have you checked for other ways of departing at the same time, or at least not earlier, that could get you to your destination reasonably close to original time? Finnair is supposed to not exclude putting you on another airline if they can’t meet your rerouting need. If there is anything bring it up as a possibility and ask for that as it might make them feel a lot warmer towards putting you in a hotel if that is what a reroute at same sort of departure time would require.

That’s easier to say than do.

Rovaniemi (ROV) is a small airport and only AY and Norwegian fly to / from there from HEL and on the 5th April google flights is shpwing only 5 flights. 4 on AY and one on Norwegian (which departs at 9pm).

Thos really comes down to the OP having to make some choices on which of the bad options available to them is the best one in their circumstances.
