It was my first time in Lappeenranta and couldn't have chosen a better place to stay. The hotel is fabulous, filled with history, clean, confortable, and staff is extraordinarily kind and helpful. A few blocks down the hotel's street, there's a brewery called Tuju (To you) that serves a Margherita pizza (Marko-Riitta as they call it) that's simply the best I've ever tasted. The city of Lappeenranta as a whole invites one to walk around, contemplate the lakes, its beautiful streets and parks and enjoy some of the famous South Karelia's cakes (10 out of 10). It's been definitely an experience worth repeating ;)

I didn't expect to get a whole appartment to myself so that was lovely. I expected more of a hotel vibe which there wasn't. The "Hotel" seems to be mainly a location for a children's summer camp - but as I was visiting out of season it might be different at other times.

Well, what a perfect place. First of all, I was driving from Tampere heading towards te hotel and told them I could not get there at check in time. When I got there, the bedroom key was on the reception desk with my name, they saw me driving the car in and came to welcome me and it was already after 10 PM. The bedroom was alright, not that big, but very comfortable as the bathroom and shower. Nice and quiet place, away from city center in a peaceful atmosphere. Besides the lak, with to piers to go in and places to swim (as I was short on time, did not have time for it what I really regret). Breakfast was all right as well, with many options, fast and stable internet and lots of parking spots in the property and lovely and carefull staff. The cost benefit was PERFECT! Strongly recommend and I would be back EASILY someday for a dive on that lake.

I have been visiting Joensuu since 2012. In the winter season, the city looks very beautiful as it gets covered with a fantastic blanket of snow. The sight of the frozen river is just stunning! I love the city for its cozy and peaceful atmosphere and the kindness of the locals.

The resort is well signposted and easily accessible from the main road. The shop and restaurant were good. A buffet breakfast was tasty and plentiful. The dinner menu was also good value for money. Beautiful location and plenty of walks/cycling ways from the front door. In the Summer months, there is big play park for children, with water slides, climbing frames, etc., in the adjacent holiday resort. This is one of the most beautiful areas of Finland.

Nice little corner of the lakeland area. Great for nature walks and water activities. The whole area felt very peaceful and I hope we can come back another time. On the Saimaa geopark website you can find some nice walks and things to do in the area but if you like forests and lakes and quiet surroundings you’ll be good here no matter where you go.
