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.
A good basic hotel! The hotel has seen life, but clean. Room spacious, wide beds, 2 fans, small fridge+tea/coffee kettle. Parking is free. The breakfast is varied, the service is friendly. Downstairs there is a sauna section and a swimming pool, which is a nice addition.

I was going on a trip to Tallinn and spent the night at Sommelo in Kuusankoski both before and after the trip. I have stayed many times at the Sommelo, which is a modest hotel, but which is still nice. The breakfast was plentiful and varied. The friendly receptionist also took care of the breakfast service.

I have been to Hotel Sommelo again, this is my third time. The hotel is very convenient if you visit Kouvola or Kuusankoski. It is only a short distance from Kouvola, but the hotels in Kouvola is much more expensive. Sommelo is rather modest,but the room was nice and the staff friendly. The breakfast is OK! The reception is closed at the evenings, so you need a door code to come in.

The Hotel Sommelo appears to have been built in the 1970s, and apparently has remained unchanged since then. The reception, foyer and restaurant are dark, gloomy and unwelcoming and the bedroom corridors, plain white brick walls without a hint of other decoration, are almost prison-like in their bleakness. Despite there being over 250 rooms, the reception closes at 9:00pm and there are no staff visible in the building after that time.
Our room was generally clean, the beds comfortable, and the (modern) television working. However, there was an old TV bracket mounted on a wall that nobody had bothered to remove, the furniture was dark and gloomy, and the walls almost bare of pictures or decoration. The bathroom was clean, but again very plainly decorated and a little bleak. The shower provided plenty of hot water, but the bracket holding it was hanging half off the wall and the soap dispenser was empty throughout our stay. There was a well-used public footpath running immediately outside our ground-floor room, meaning that curtains had to be kept closed at all times. In the absence of air conditioning, we had to keep a small window open, and the nearby main road meant that traffic noise was a problem-not helped by the locals' enthusiasm for underpowered and extremely noisy mopeds. There is only one hotel in Kuusankoski, which probably explains Best Western's indifference to the quality of its offering. Only use it if you have to!

This is supposedly a hotel but is the first we have used where the reception is closed from midday on Sunday, instructions how to get in are on the door and are in poor English. Basically you have to walk right round the hotel block to find the bar whose owner is the guardian of the hotel although he doesnt work for it. Anyway he gave us the key and showed us our room, number 101!. Handy right by the door but as a result noisy as anyone coming in wants to talk outside your room or wheel in very noisy troilleys. Not a good room for a sleep. Room is at best average. Everything basic was there except milk for the tea/coffee. WIth no receptionist we had to go without. Sauna was not open on Sunday as we were told by an irate American on arrival. Breakfast was average. Supposedly there is a restaurant but we didnt find it. Anyway the saving grace of our one night here was the greek restaurant nearby.

Very basic hotel at Kuusankoski, about 6km from Kouvola city center. Bus nro 1 from railway station. Very friendly service, little bit outdated hotel, but reasonable price, including buffet style breakfast. The room was equipped with, tv, fridge, kettle, hairdryer. Free wi-fi at public areas and it worked at our room (111). No aircon. Free parking. Reception is open only a 18.00 (sunday 12.00), so nmake a call if you are coming later - they give you a door code to get in. There are supermarket nearby and a restaurant also. There were sauna for customers, pool was closed.

I was on journey in the south east of Finland and stayed over for one night at this hotel. The hotel is rather modest, but the price is also rather reasonable. I have been here before and it still convenient if you travel in this region. The breakfast was tasty and the lady behind the desk was friendly. The reception closes rather early at the weekdays, but you get a code, so you can come in to the hotel.

Not so good, but not so bad either. Room was old but clean. Breakfast was enough. Not good for long stay. Kuusankoski center hotel. Town is nice and quiet. Local restaurants close pretty early though.

I have read some negatives comments about this hotel, but I think it is rather good. I had a nice single room with laminate flooring and a huge shower cabin. The breakfast was good and the lady behind the desk was friendly and helpful. The reception is closed at the evenings, so you need a number code to get in.

We visited Kouvola for two days and stayed at Sommelo for the nights. The hotel is very basic hotel. Room was clean even though the bath was outdated and it should be renovated. Sleep quality was good and there was no noises to be heard. Staff was friendly and the breakfast was ok.
