The hotel was nice and tidy, and the room for two was quite large. The temperature outdoors was very cold but in the hotel room it was still rather warm, even too warm. We ate once in the restaurant; service was friendly, the food was tasty, and I liked the 'house wine' (Yellow Tail). Breakfast was excellent, lots of delicious... More

I spent one night at Scandic Kuopio in January. The hotel is situated by a lake shore line, beautiful place, a few blocks from the Kuopio central (5 minutes walk). The hotel staff was very nice and helpful, my room was clean and quite big, everything worked and a free internet access. Breakfast was included in the room rate and... More

In general this hotel is good place to stay, if you compare other european hotels. It is a little bit old, but I also started to like it. Free WLAN, good service for business traveller, environmental issues considered and nice breakfast. The location is not next to marketplace, but in Kuopio everything is close anyway.

From the moment you walk in this hotel screams 80s! At first I was a little taken aback wondering why they haven't renovated it, but after a while I started liking the peach colors, the black and mirror decor in the bar, the spaciousness and the tacky palace trimmings. The location is great, by the lake and within walking distance... More

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Scandic Kuopio, Finland. This Hotel is perfectly situated for exploring this lovely Finnish Town. We could walk to the main shopping area and to good resturants with ease. We enjoyed a lake cruise on a paddle steamer( lots to choose from) as it was summer and I imagine it would be just as lovely... More

We booked a non-smoking room that was upgraded at the reception to a superior room with lake view. Yes, the room was OK and the views great but the room was so hot! We were offered free drinks up front but still I think I would have preferred some cooling in the room instead. The hotel is located by the... More

The hotel is in a very convenient and beautiful location, by the shore of the lake and 5 min walk from the harbour. We took a double room with lake view which was spacious and offered very relaxing view of the lake Kallavesi. The room was spacious and had a big wall-to-wal window which made the view great BUT served... More

Very nice staff but this hotel is way outdated and wornout, yet these facts do not reflect in price. As others have also commented here, the room temperature is about +26C even though outside it was +16C in our case. Just terrible. Also the door was so loose that every time some other guest opened their door, our door was... More
