We could not have had a better place for our last night in Finland before heading back home. A little remote, quiet and peaceful. Small but very clean rooms which were renovated. A good selection for the breakfast made the stay even more pleasant. We only would have wished that the restaurant would be open in winter.

Nice and calm place. Staff was helpful when we needed clean sheets, but the guy also complained about it. We where there late autumn, so it was often dark in the hours we were at the hotel, and we weren't outside much. Very beautiful nature, exept the power lines. It was a cozy room. Nice bathroom. Sadly the restaurant was closed in the evenings when we where there.

We stayed on 18th april 2025 in room 3, eventhough in the advertiesment they says there is balcony access, balcony was locked due to a renovation and they didn’t convay that to us until we check in to the room. Further from the wash room drain water came in to the washroom little bit. Rooms are not sound proof at all. The area was really nice calm and quite

Palvelu oli ystävällistä ja henkilökunta vaikutti mukavalta. Ruoka oli ihan perus yksinkertaista suht samaa pystyisi kotona tekemään, mutta se oli maukasta ja raaka-aineet olivat hyviä. Aina on myös kiva tulla valmiiseen pöytään. Viineistä ei oikeen osattu sanoa mitään ja valittiin pullo etiketin perusteella 😅. Hotelli on ulkoisesti jäänyt ajasta, mutta huoneet olivat siistejä ja niissä oli perus mukavuudet. Sängystä miinusta sillä se oli jo parhaat päivänsä nähnyt. Ympäristö on kaunis ja voisin huonosta sängystä huolimatta tulla toistekin. Ainakin päivä vierailulle! Kesällä paikka pääsee varmasti paremmin oikeuksiinsa.

Kaikin puolin mukava hotelli rannalla. Ystävän kanssa erilliset sängyt, ainoa miinus niiden kapeus. Vai olisiko nukkujat leveentyneet...aamupala erinomainen.

En suosittele

Hinta-laatusuhde heikko. Patjat kuopalla ja sängyt todella vanhoja. Ilmastointi puuttui, eikä edes tavallista ilmanvaihtoa ollut; ilma oli seisova ja rakennuksessa haisi pahalle. Huone oli niin pieni, että kolme 80cm sänkyä täytti sen seinästä seinään. Remontti oli jäänyt hyvin pintapuoliseksi. Plussaa oli maistuva aamiainen.

Yöpyminen Santalahdessa

Huone oli siisti ja viihtyisä. Avainkortteja yms ei ole käytössä vaan ovet aukeaa pin-koodilla. Sänky oli todella pehmeä. Itse pidän kovemmasta mutta hyvin sai nukuttua eikä ollut selkä aamulla kipeä.

hiljaista talvella

Hotellin respa oli mennyt kiinni harmittavasti jo klo 17, joten en saanut hoteelilta iltapalaa enkä muita ravintola palveluita. Myöskään saunaan en päässyt, kun ei sauna ollut päällä. aamupala oli ihan ok, mutta ei 20 euron arvoinen. Muuten hoteeli oli siisti.

Muuten kaikki hyvin, mutta väärää tietoa ravintolan aukioloajoista. Kotisivuilla ja sähköpostissa eri ajat ja todellisuudessa vielä eri aika. Kun sitten toisena iltana onnistuin saamaan ruokaa se oli kyllä hyvää. Aamiainen myös erinomainen. Huone ihan kiva, muutamaa epäkäytännöllistä juttua lukuunottamatta. Esim. lukuvalon katkaisija niin korkealla että pakko nousta sängystä jos haluaa sammuttaa valon. Kesällä tosi kiva ympäristö.

Vuode oli aivan liian pehmeä ja epämukava selälle. Olisi ollut mukavaa jos tyynyjä olisi ollut enemmän kun yhdet. Aamupalalla oli jostain syystä kuuma levyt pois päältä ja ruoka ja kahvi oli haaleeta. Leivät oli kuivia ja tuoreiden sämpylöiden seassa oli myös edellisen päivän sämpylöitä.

Kaunis sijainti, aamupala oli aika niukka. Huoneessa oli siirrettävä ilmastointilaite, joka piti huoneessa siedettävän lämpötilan, vaikka piti aika kovaa ääntä. Hinta-laatusuhde oli ihan hyvä. Joustavasta sisäänkirjautumisesta ja mahdollisuudesta myöhäiseen uloskirjautumiseen plussaa!
