The hotel is basic, but functional. I was a bit disappointed when arriving at the hotel 17:00 to learn that the check-in was at a pizza restaurant 300+ meters away. The room and appointments were very basic and a bit run down. Notably, the bathroom was really small and the shower was integrated into the bathroom. The breakfast was pretty good. At the same time, the room had a very nice view of the lake and the hotel is a 10-15 minute walk from the Opera.

Good location, friendly staff

Older hotel. No air conditioning. The room was way too hot at summer time and should not be rented for full price. Nice location with a view to the castle and very friendly staff. Breakfast was excellent too.

It started out confusing- check in was at the other e of the street @ a restaurant.. it meant backtracking with a bag. I got my key and headed back to the hotel. The place is charming- an older wooden structure . I felt like I was in an Ibsen play! The room was nice- mini apartment with a kitchenette. The breakfast was very good. The location was convenient to the center and to the castle The price was quite high for this somewhat rustic venue with no elevator. The high caprice was due to the opera festival, but still tooooooi high! Perhaps a Scandic or Sokos would have been more reasonable

A unique hotel close to the heart of Savonlinna. Easy stay and had a good breakfast with plenty of options. Rooms can get hot in the summer as there was no ac, just a fan. Luckly visited at the end of summer with lower temperatues

Could do better

No aircon, if you opened the windows there was wasps trying to come in. The windows could really use mosquito covers. Breakfast was minimal, selection poor. The beds were good and everything was very clean. Furniture on the hallway was old and broken...

Great location by the lake, with beautiful views. This is an older property which has been repurposed. It would be great if they redid the interiors to make it more comfortable, although it is an interesting view of an older hotel. It faces the sun in the morning, so the rooms get quite hot and opening the windows can only cool it so much, so it was quite warm in the evening. This was mid-summer, so perhaps in the winter this works well. The breakfast option was good. Young staff, helpful and courteous.

Tunkkainen, onneksi kesä, että ikkunaa pystyi pitämään koko ajan auki. Hella oli, muttei astioita, joilla olisi voinut ruokaa lämmittää/keittää/ Tv olisi luultavasti kaivannut salasanoja, joita ei ollut missään mainittu tai sitten en vaan osannut/ymmärtänyt

Hotelli oli siisti ja viehättävä. Pientä säätöä voisi olla esim rullaverhon mekanismi ei oikein toiminut, mikä ei häirinnyt yhden yön reissulla. Sänky oli hyvä nukkua. Aamupala oli runsas ja hyvä.

Siistit yleiset tilat ja kaunis historiallinen rakennus. Hyvä sänky. Iso huone, jossa pieni keittonurkkaus/tila. Valittiin kyseinen majoitus juurikin tuon ruuanlaitto mahdollisuuden vuoksi, siksi pettymys olikin suuri kun kävi ilmi ettei huoneessa ollut mitään ruuanlaittovälineitä tai astioita. Kuitenkin keittiötilat erikseen mainitaan majoitus ilmoituksessa, joten voisi myös sen kertoa ettei siellä ole välineitä. 🙄 Olisimme muuten valinneet samaan hintaan saatavana olleen keskustan hotellin joka vaikutti siistimmältä.

Huone oli perussiisti ja toimiva, sekä melko iso. Parvelle olisi mahtunut vielä yksi henkilökin nukkumaan. Paikka muuten hieman kolkko mutta mielenkiintoisella historialla. Aamupala hyvin perus, erikoisruokavalioita ei juurikaan huomioitu. (En tiedä saisiko pyytämällä esim gluteiinitonta leipää tai vegaanista jugurttia mutta niitä ei ainakaan ollut tarjolla) Henkilökunta hyvinkin iloista sekä aamupalalla, että respassa. Ilmainen parkkipaikka, josta plussaa. Hotellin respa sijaitsee tosiaan läheisessä ravintolassa, jonne pieni kävelymatka. Uloskirjautuessa avaimen voi kuitenkin jättää hotellille. Yleisesti siisti ja ok perushotelli.

Siisti, pieni hotelli. Meillä oli mukava iso huone ensimmäisessä kerroksessa. Koska ilma oli viileähkö, ei ilmastointia kaivannut. Aamiainen oli aivan riittävä, joskin aamiaishuone pieni. Menimme oman huoneen oleskelutilaa syömään, toimi ihan hyvin. Huone sopisi pidempäänkin oleskeluun, jos keittiössä olisi perusastiat.

aamiaistila kiireismpään osoittautui pieneksi, mutta pelastuksena hyvällä säällä mahdollisuus siirtyä ulos syömään. Yhdelle aamiaisen vastuuhenkilölle paljon tekemistä. Välillä sekä astiat että tarjoilut vähissä. Astiat kasautuivat pöydille, kun apuhenkilö ei oikein ollut ajantasalla tehtävistään. Myös henkilökunnan kielitaidottomuus häiritsi.
