Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
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.
Learn more about our review moderation.

We stayed at Scandic Julia for one night in December. We arrived into Turku on an overnight train, they offered us an early check-in and breakfast on the day we arrived. The staff particularly Irina was amazing and very accommodating. Hotel is in a great location, also a short walk to the station.

We visited for two nights and the hotel was a standard Scandic, average hotel. Beds were a bit too soft for my taste, but breakfast was good. I didn't use any of the other facilities. The person working during check-in was not very service-minded or was limited due to language barriers, talking English.

Ok hotel, good location. Room was not cleaned at any point, very filthy. Definitely not for families. Breakfast was normal, no extras, but all the basics. Room was small, absolutely minimum for three people if you have very little luggage with you.

A good place to stay over a weekend in Turku for medieval market happening. Julia is located in the middle of Turku and close all the important places to visit. And easy to arrive by car, and excellent parking possibilities in the same building!

Hotel has seen the best days. Rooms were outdated, floor has seen lot of life, views were not so great and rooms was hot - despite that there was mentioned that there should be air-conditioner. There was friendly staff and not so friendly staff. But it was ok hotel Too expensive for my opinion to that quality. Breakfast was great though.

The hotel was bright, clean and modern. Easy parking, a decent gym and sauna and a nice breakfast. The hotel was quite pricey, so although it was overall a very pleasant stay, I did consider it too expensive.

Julia is a good option when you need a place to stay overnight in the city center but don't want to pay too much. The rooms are simple and not luxorius at all though clean and quiet. Personnel is friendly and breakfast is also good. The hotel has improved a lot compared to some years ago.

Good location close to Abo Academy and the river. Staff is welcoming and ready to help if you have a problem, and breakfast is delicious. My room was big and cleaned, and the bed so comfy I didn’t want to wake up.
