Although it was a bit a of challenge to book the rooms in Hotel Alma, it was worth the hassle. I stayed in the Kristiinankaupunki suite by myself for a night. Easy access from the train station was great. The suite is very spacious with a separate bedroom and living room. There is a lovely sauna, two showers and big Jacuzzi. I have never seen such a big terrace with a glassed-in balcony in a hotel room. The decor was not to my liking in the Kristiinankaupunki but the suite is decorated very thoughtfully and the suite has a lot of character. My only real gripe about the room was the fact that you could not get the bedroom completely dark since the curtains did not cover the whole window and there were no blackout curtains. Other than that the room was lovely. For the second night I moved to the Seinäjoki suite and was accompanied by my husband and our daughter. The suite is modern and Scandinavian in its decor. Again a separate bedroom, spacious living room, lovely bath room with a sauna, two showers and Jacuzzi to fit a couple and a small child. Again a very large terrace and glassed-in balcony. I really liked the Seinäjoki suite, the decor was gorgeous, it was very spacious, airy and light. Also there were blackout curtains in the bedroom so the bedroom was dark at night which is essential for...Although it was a bit a of challenge to book the rooms in Hotel Alma, it was worth the hassle.

The breakfast was a bit disappointing but that is only because buffet breakfasts weren't allowed at the beginning of the global pandemic Covid-19. The breakfast was a lovely small tray of yogurt, rye bread, cheese, ham slices, vegetables and some fruit. There was a choice of hot and cold foods you could order from the waiter. Thoughtful but of course when compared to a buffet breakfast, the selection was very limited.

Overall I was pleased although the level of cleaning could have been more thorough during a pandemic: new clean glasses for guests, thorough wash for the toilets, etc.

There was a TV in the bedrooms and in the living rooms. The TVs were equipped with Chromecast programs so watching your favorite TV shows and movies from you tablet was easy. I truly enjoyed that feature of the rooms!

I would be very happy to return to the hotel Alma and the Seinäjoki suite! Finally a really great hotel that isn't a part of a hotel chain.More
