Retro, awkward and slightly odd spa hotel

Extremely retro/out-dated spa hotel. Was a unique timecapsule experience, but the main building is in desperate need of renovations. Pool facilities are mediocre but was ok for a swim and some splashes with the family for a small amount of time. The family room had a bizzare loft bed hanging from the ceiling with no way to get on to it but jump up - not very convenient and difficult for kids. Nothing like the description or photo. Room lock system also was usually not working as cards didnt unlock the door easily. Not a horrible experience but won't likely visit again.

Yksi yö riitti

Vanhentunut hotelli, jossa huoneet olivat turkasen kuumat kesähelteillä, sillä ilmastointi oli vain osassa huoneista. Varsin mitätön aamupala eikä kylpyläkään suuria elämyksiä tarjonnut. Ylihinnoiteltu laatuun nähden. Rannan savusauna oli tosin kiva.

Ihan hyvä paikka yöpyä

Hotelli on ihan hyvä, kunhan ei ole kesähelle, sillä ilmastointia ei ole. Ilmainen ja tilava parkkialue ja pihasta lähtevä bussilinja ovat hyviä asioita. Tilat ovat jo parhaat päivänsä nähneet, mutta siisteys oli kunnossa. Kasvissyöjälle ei aamiaisella ole muuta syötävää kuin leipää, tomaattia, kurkkua, vihreää salaattia ja hilloa & marjoja. Henkilökunta oli ystävällistä.

Hyvä hotelli syksystä kevääseen

Ihan hyvä hotelli muutaman kilometrin päässä Kuopijon keskustasta. Bussi nro 7 lähtee hotellin edestä, mikä voi olla joillekin hyvä juttu. Ilmastointia ei ole, mikä verottaa arvosanaa, kun huoneessa oli koko ajan 27 astetta lämmintä. Ilmaista parkkitilaa on hyvin ja ympäristö on ainakin kesällä viihtyisä. Aamiainen oli suomalaisten hotellien joukossa keskitasoa. Palvelu oli ystävällistä.
