If you go to this hotel make sure that your room is on the main building. The main building is nice and new the old one is dated. The breakfast was nice and in a big salong type or area. The hotel was right down town near tori which was nice

The welcome was genuine by a very friendly staff. We chose the older section of the hotel based on a friend's recommendation. Though the hallways here were unattractive, the room itself was perfectly fine. It was very spacious and comfortable with up-to-date decor. After a chat with reception about the spa, we decided it was time to try one and this was a good experience. The breakfast buffet was varied and plentiful but there were no cappuccinos and no made-to-order eggs. We still enjoyed it.

Dear concordia39,

Wicked to hear you enjoyed your stay with us so well! The Central building has a unique touch to it with the breakfast buffet served in its restaurant.

We hope to see you again here in Vaasa!

Best regards,
Jani

An peaceful hotel in the middle of the city. Excellent breakfast, sauna and swimming pool. Clean and comfortable rooms with facilities needed. Restaurants in walking distance as well as the railway station. Highly recommended.

Hotel is in good location, breakfast was quite good and parking place is very good with enough space. shower/toilet was very small and poorly designed. Our room armchair was dirty and stained. Water boiler was in horrible condition.

Dear Tero L.

Thank you for your review, although it was sad to hear that we did not do as well as we should have done.
We will learn from this and I hope we can show you later on that we can do much better.

Have a great winter time and you are warmly welcome back to us and Vaasa again.

Best regards,

Leena H.
