Nice recently renovated room. Have water faucet with thermostat, so you can get constant water temperature in shower, not contrast shower as it is usual in hotels. Strange smell in hallway. Simple breakfast with awful coffee. TV had no video signal.

I like staying at this hotel. The rooms are a good size, comfortable and clean with a well laid out shower room and comfortable bed. The breakfast is typically Scandinavian and there is more than enough choice to have a varied selection. Staff were very efficient and helpful and all in all a delightful smaller hotel that provides all you... More

Positive things first: Well located near railway station and walking distance from city centre. Very stylish rooms and cosy lobby. My room on top floor was spaciuos and clean. The modern rocking chair in my room finalized the design hotel feeling. Hotel's personnel was really nice and helpful. Areas to improve: Breakfast was dissapointment and really an average. I could...

This is a hotel with several plus-points: close to the railway station and (a great plus for me) close to the university. The place was apparently quite recently re-furbished and it does indeed feel well-kept and new. My room on the 5th floor was very quiet, decently sized and stylish (this is Finland, after all). Amenities in the room included... More

Nice rooms, close to everything, great staff, free working wifi etc. Just one downside, they don't have any restaurant for lunch or dinner. Ok, it's not the end of the world if you need to walk 1000 meters from hotel to find lots of different places to eat, but still...

I have had a total of three one-night stays at this hotel over the past couple of months. The positives first. The hotel has a good location on the Tullintori square near the railway station. It also has far more personality than most of the other Sokos Hotels which simply go to show how awfully boring those highly standardized chain... More

I spent one night here as they had a theatre package promotion earlier. The price actually didn't really come any cheaper if I had bought the theatre ticket separately from the room reservation. Oh well. The hotel is at a good location, very short walk from the railway station and really close to the public transport. Also there is a... More

A recently renovated hotel built in a former grain storehouse. My single room on the top floor had a unique diagonal roof and tiny windows - so practically no view, plain scandinavian style decoration with wood and mostly light colours. The bathroom was small with dark tiles and a miniature sized washbasin, which was rather impractical. The breakfast buffet was... More

Early October I stayed for one night in this hotel with my husband. We chose this hotel because of the prize: it was a little bit more than 100e for staying from Friday to Saturday. The service was good (we actually didn't have to ask for anything special), and so was the breakfast. During the nighttime the hotel was quiet... More

Good location close to railway station in an old factory. Rooms and hotel are bit different and nice due to the building not originally been build as a hotel. We managed to get a big room with sauna on the 5th floor (due checking in late when hotel was full) which was nice. No idea of the normal rooms... Breakfast... More
