Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
The hotel's prime central location, adjacent to the railway station and the shopping mall, ensures convenience for travellers. The standout feature is its rich historical ambiance, reflected in the unique room designs. The service was exceptional, warm and friendly. The highlight of the morning was the delicious breakfast served at the neighbouring Torni hotel. Overall, Hotel Villa offers a memorable experience combining convenience, historical charm and attentive service. Many thanks!

My favorite Sokos Hotel in Tampere, when I need peace and want to avoid very crowded areas & busy breakfast times. But the best thing is, that if you change your mind during your stay, there is bigger Sokos Hotel Torni in the neighbourhood and you can have your breakfast and dinner there. In this hotel only porridge breakfast (incl. coffee, tea, juice & smoothies, eggs etc.) is served. For me it's perfect, if I'm in the hurry in the morning.
Rooms are clean and there is space enough. Bathrooms are clean also.
Good choice. Especially for busy business travellers.

This cozy atmospheric boutique hotel is located next to the railway station. The hotel is a renovated 100-year-old granary with interesting architecture and beautiful interior decor. The original brick walls and bay windows are reminding of the history.
Each room is unique. We stayed in the two-story Tower Suite. The lower floor had a comfortable double bed and a toilet. The upper floor had a living room, sauna, bathtub, and another toilet. From the upper floor windows, you could admire panoramic city views.
The breakfast is served at the neighboring Torni Hotel. It was quite easily accessed through the mall’s parking garage. This time the breakfast was pleasantly calm. The food selection was good.
For the sale price of 225 euros, our stay had quite good value. However, I wouldn't pay much more for this room.

Hotel is in a good location, just "behind" Sokos hotel Torni. Superior room is clean and nice. There was some renovation beside hotel (our room side), we woke up to loud noise about 7 a.m. next morning... Small breakfast in hotel was good enough for a fresh start of day. "Jopo" bycicles were in good condition. But our holiday had bad ending because we had to pay double barc fee when we left. We we not informed that only lower level parking lots were included in the 22€ price (valid for 24 hours). We used both lower and upper parking lots and left our car to upper level in the evening. Next morning we had 2 barc fees on windscreen... Our opinion is that hotel staff should have contacted to us when first fee was given (partially also our fault because we did not realize that these upper parking lots were only for visitors with some special permission...but anyway, we should have been informed).

Hi JabbaDeHutt, thank you for your feedback, we appreciate you took the time to write a review of your stay. I'm pleased to hear that you were happy about your room and you liked our small breakfast. I'm so sorry to hear about the parking ticket and that there were some misunderstanding of the parking places. P-Tullintori parking lot an parking hall is quite big and owned by Finnpark, so if someone has a parking ticket, unfortunately it is impossible for us to know that. All in all, I hope you had a wonderful visit in Tampere and you will be our guest in the future as well! Kind regards, Riikka/Original Sokos Hotel Villa Reception

Hotel Villa, built in an old granary, offers a quiet accommodation option near the station. Spacious rooms, partly with brick walls, comfortable beds and excellent service. The only downside is that you have to walk to another building for breakfast. Porridge breakfast is served on site.

I came by train at 12:15 and it was only a few minutes' walk from the station. There were really nice customer service people at the reception who answered my questions in a good-natured manner. There is also free coffee in the lobby. My room wasn't ready yet, so I worked in the lobby. I got a room at two o'clock. I asked for a room far from the elevator and got the very farthest room. The only window was into the local hall, but that doesn't bother me. They would have changed my room if I had wanted, so the service really works. The air conditioning was quite loud (automatic), so I turned it down myself. The temperature is just right. One coffee cup was dirty, but otherwise very clean. The room has a small fridge and a kettle. The bathroom is clean. All in all, a very comfortable room. I stay for two nights and I got to choose whether the room is cleaned in between or not.

I had a short overnight business stay. Everything was very convenient, quick but friendly check-in and clean room with everything you need including supplies for coffee. It looked like the room and the bathroom had been recently renovated. I had a upper floor room and the only minus was that the windows were very small so there was barely natural light. Breakfast buffet was served in Hotel Torni almost next door.

A hotel located in a central location, the comfort of which could be improved. The rooms are basic clean, but dull and small. Loud air conditioning, the noise of which even earplugs cannot cover. The interior is quite pleasant, but the hotel's surroundings are dreary - you can see mostly a gray parking area from the windows. There are numerous hotels in the center of Tampere with a better price-quality ratio.

Overall, our stay was good. The room was cozy and the bed was comfortable. However, the walls were too thin and we could here our neighbours’ conversation clealry. Breakfast was across the road in Torni, which was not optimal, but the selection was good.
