Quiet luxury living at its best

Staying at Hotel Punkaharju was the highlight of our week long trip in Finland. A historic destination among the most beautiful landscapes in the whole country (a road leading to the hotel called Vuosisadan tie was voted as the most scenic in Finland), Hotel Punkaharju has been restored to its old grandeur with just the right touches of modern day living. Shampoos and conditioners from Fräntsilä, adored those. Best bed we slept in during the entire trip. The beautiful surrounding nature and a morning dip in lake Puruvesi, heaven. Are the hotel rooms a bit pricey? Yes, and they should be. This type of stay is the epitomy of the quiet luxury trend. Especially the breakfast and separate menu dinner at Restaurant Metsä - just oozing that impeccable respect for both high standard local ingredients and excellent customer service. I urge everyone traveling in Savonlinna region to book a night or two at Hotel Punkaharju. Truly an experience worth living.

Upea paikka vielä upeamalla sijainnilla. Remontin ja ympäristön siistimisen tarvetta on. Nenä arveli että hometta sviitin rakenteista kyllä löytyy. Illallismenu todella hyvä ja enemmän kuin hintansa arvoinen. Suosittelen.

Hotelli keskellä kauneinta Suomea

Sijainti on erinomaisen kaunis, maisemat todella kauneinta Suomea. Oma huoneeni oli Keisarinnan Huvilassa. Kun pahimmat helteet olivat majoittuessani jo ohi, ei ilmastoinnin puuttuminen huoneesta haitannut. Kaikki muut asiat huoneessa oli todella erinomaista; tilava, erinomainen vuode, sisustus. Erityismaininnan ansaitsee Ravintola Metsä, jossa tarjolla oli erinomainen illallinen ja todella maistuva aamiainen. Lähiruokaa parhaimmillaan! Ulkoilumahdollisuudet kauniissa luonnossa tekevät tästä hotellista hyvän lomakohteen vaikkapa kesäviikonlopuksi.

Ihana Hotel Punkaharju

Hotelli Punkaharju on upea kohde jo pelkästään luonnon ja sen historian takia. Majoituimme viehättäviin rantamökkeihin, joissa mökeissä ei ole WC/suihkua. Meillä oli ns huussi tien toisella puolella. Huoltorakennuksen WC- & suihkutilat vajaan 100m päässä. Erittäin siisti ja mukava mökki. Hellekesänä hyttysverkko -ikkunat pelastivat meidät, kun saimme läpivedon aikaiseksi. Mökin senkissä baarijääkaappi juomineen sekä kahvin-/teenkeittomahdollisuus. Makuuhuoneen lisäksi mukava alkovi/istuinryhmä (=vuodesohva). Hotellin julkiset tilat siistit. Rav. Metsässä tarjoiltu aamiainen on mielestäni aivan poikkeuksellinen Suomessa. Aamiainen on kattava, ei laaja, mutta erinomaisen laadukas paikallisista tuotteista koostuva. Puolet tarjolla noutopöydästä puolet tilattavissa à la carte-listalta omien mieltymysten mukaisesti. Gluteenittomuus huomioitu erinomaisesti. Champagnea / huokuviiniä myös tilattavissa erillistä korvausta vastaan.

Ei hintansa arvoinen

Pieni huone, todella kuuma. Sisäänkirjautumisen yhteydessä pyydettiin maksamaan huone uudelleen vaikka maksettu jo. Ei kerrottu aamupalan aikataulusta tms, jouduin myöhemmin palaamaan selvittämään asiaa. Ohimennen toisilta asiakkailta kuulin aamusaunasta, tästäkin olisi ollut hyvä kertoa. Aamupalalla osa tuotteista oli tilattava erikseen, esim jugurtti, palvelu oli hidasta ja muu aamupala oli aikaa sitten syöty kun tilaus tuli. Periaatteessa ihan ok yöpyminen, jos hinta olisi ollut puolet nykyisestä- tähän hintaan odotan jo vähän enemmän.

Koiran kanssa kesälomalla.

Yövyimme mukavissa mökeissä ihan rannalla. Mökki ole oikein kiva. Aamiainen oli laadultaan erinomainen, ehkä valikoimaa voisi vielä hieman kehittää. Hotellin tenniskenttä oli kiva. Illallinen ravintola Metsässä oli erinomainen, muikut ja kuha erinomaisia. Upeat ulkoilumaastot ja näkymät.

Välietappi kohti Imatraa. Jäätiin vaaleanpunaiseen kartanoon yöksi. Muuten kaikki nappiin, paitsi aamupala. Se oli suppea omaan makuun nähden. Puolisolle ei aamupalalle jäänyt oikein muuta kuin kahvi ja pala pullaa. Itse söin karjalanpiirakan. Olisin kaivannut jotain lämpimiä vaihtoehtoja kuten pekonia, munaa etc.
