Great location

Great location across the train station and about 20min walk from the central Buss station. Comfortable if a bit dated room and bathroom with no view. Quiet room, comfortable bed. Aircon did not work very well (temp could not be lowered) and windows did not open (safety measure) so it would have been hot if the weather was hotter. Breakfast was good. We could leave luggage in the locked storage room before the 4pm check in and again the next day after checking out.

Ihana ja joustava henkilökunta. Erinomainen aamiainen. Ilmastointi juuri sopivalla, ei kuuma, ei liian kylmä! Ulkopuolelta kadun melu ei kuulunut juuri lainkaan, ainoa pieni miinus oli,että yläkerran huoneesta kuului suht hyvin äänet ja pomppiminen huoneeseemme. Tampereen parhaita hotelleja mielestäni!

繁華街に歩いて行けて、VRの駅の真向かいで、チェックアウト後他の都市に移動するのに便が良かった。ロウリュができる男女別のサウナでは地元の方と交流することもできて楽しい時間だった。館内の設備は、清潔で、部屋も広く落ち着いた雰囲気だった。バゲッジルームがあり、スーツケースを預けることができるが、番号札があるわけでなく、フロントスタッフが自動ドアを開けて自分で入れるタイプ。お部屋に電気ポットはなく、冷蔵庫はあった。タンペレに来たらまた利用したいし、他都市に行く機会があれば、スカンディックグループのホテルに泊まりたいと思った。

Raikas tuulahdus kesä helteillä.

Kesä helteillä ilmastoitu huone oli mitä mainioin ja mukavin juttu. Henkilökunta oli hyvin ystävllisiä ja avuliaita. Aamiainen oli ihan mahtava, jokaiselle löytyi omat aamuherkkunsa.

Erittäin hyvä palvelu ja aamupala. Sängyt ei yltäneet palvelun ja aamupalan tasolle. Yöaikaista kompressorien käyntiääntä sanoisin häiritseväksi. Remontin äänet ei häirinneet.

Ihan hyvä hotelli!

Vietimme hotellissa kaksi yötä ja viihdyimme ihan hyvin. Jouduimme toiseksi yöksi vaihtamaan huonetta, koska ensimmäisestä huoneesta loppui lämpimän veden tulo, mutta tämä hoidettiin respasta erinomaisesti ja saimme heti uuden huoneen tilalle. Molemmissa huoneissa oli kuitenkin todella kylmä eikä huoneessa ollut lämpötilan säädin, jolla olisi pitänyt saada säädettyä +2 astetta toiminut ollenkaan. Välillä huoneen lämpötila laski jostain syystä jopa vakiolämpötilaa alemmaksikin. Vaatteiden vaihtaminen oli inhottavaa, koska heti piti täristä kylmyydestä. Emme kuitenkaan jaksaneet valittaa tästä vaan pysyttelimme lämpimät vaatteet päällä. Aamupala oli hyvä ja muutenkin siisti hotelli ja mukava henkilökunta.

Ruuhkainen viikonloppu, ja siihen nähden kaikki sujui jouhevasti. Aamiaisravintola oli todella meluisa korkean tilan vuoksi. Pienillä akustiikkaratkaisuilla tilasta saisi hiljaisemman ja miellyttävämmän.
