The hotel is a very short drive from the Railway Station. It was snowing in the 3rd week of January 2012 , and the temperature was around minus 10 degrees C. We tried the large turnstile-type entrance door and found that it was under repairs : a sign showed us the way to Reception using a side door.

Stayed for 2 nights with my family (this was our second stay in this hotel). Shortly:
Pros: views (the superior rooms are in the top floors & the views are magnificent), location (in the center, right next to Tammerkoski river), stylish rooms & bathrooms, very comfortable beds, quiet rooms, nice swimming pool, friendly staff
Cons: breakfast room (now there was...

Stayed for 2 nights with a large group over weekend.
The hotel is very good, nice, modern large rooms with a view over the city (if you are on higher floors). Very comfortable beds. The hotel is attached to a shopping mall, so it was nice to walk from hotel to the shopping centre without your winter overclothes on.

The only problem with this hotel is that it was the first place I stayed in Finland (landed in Helsinki and hopped the first train to Tampere) and so I now compare every hotel I stayed at in Finland to the Sokos. For me, never having stayed in a sokos hotel before I was incredibly impressed. The staff were very...

My husband travels to Tampere for business 2-3 times per year and usually stays at the Ilves. This was my first opportunity to travel with him and we stayed for 6 nights.
Overall the hotel was very clean and well run. The rooms were nicely decorated (although I could've done without the random blown up pictures from TV shows) and...

Hotel does nothave free parking, parking is either just next to the hotel in the small park house or in the shopping mall near the hotel. Both cost similar 24 EUR/day. Expensive. Breakfast is tasty, however service is horrible. Actually there was no service at all, there were tables in a conference hall or ball room and you feel yourself...

The location for Hotel Ilves is excellent. It's right at the center of Tampere and you can easily walk from the hotel. The breakfast isn't at the level that you would expect from a hotel with this price level. If you stay at the hotel you should reserve a room from the top levels because you can see the whole...
